Sumerian Hymns from Cuneiform Texts in the British Museum (Analecta Gorgiana)

Vanderburgh's noted study of the Sumerian hymns to Bel, Sin, Adad, and Tammuz in the British Museum is an excellent example of one of the early attempts to grapple with the difficulties of the Sumerian language. Each hymn is presented in transliteration and translation, and these are accompanied by the author's own commentary.
