English introduction and notes; body consists of transliterated original Akkadian
text and English translation on opposing pages.
The Akkadian series Maqlû (Burning) is one of the most significant and interesting
magical texts from the ancient Near East. It contains almost one hundred incantations
and accompanying rituals directed against witches and witchcraft. But it is not a
collection; rather, it actually represents a single complex ceremony that was performed
during a single night and following morning at the end of the month Abu (July-August),
when spirits were thought to move back and forth between the netherworld and the world
of the living. This volume makes available an annotated transcription and translation
of the Maqlû text. A detailed introduction provides historical, literary, and ceremonial
context. (Back cover)
