In this reading, we will highlight a series of books that were part of a large collection of books that arrived at the faculty library as a gift from Heidelberg University, as part of the &#8220;Em-Sal Heidelberg Studies&#8221; series. This series comprises more than six volumes. In our reading, we will only discuss the second volume, entitled &#8220;Erishma Prayers in the First Millennium BC,&#8221; introduced by researcher Uri Gabi and published by Haratovits in Wiesbaden, Germany, in 2015. The second volume of Heidelberg University&#8217;s Em-Sal Studies focuses on presenting a cuneiform version of all Sumerian hymns or chants dating back to the first millennium BC, which were known as &#8220;Erishma,&#8221; meaning &#8220;drum lament.&#8221; This volume is a revised and expanded version of the researcher&#8217;s thesis. (Uri Gabi) from Heidelberg University, the book also deals with a record written on a cuneiform text from the reign of the Assyrian king (Ashurbanipal) in the seventh century BC, which was discovered in the royal palace in Nineveh, and included more than (80) hymns classified as hymns or prayers of Ireshima, noting that this achievement has received the attention of researchers and establishes new studies in the field of hymn literature. This book was introduced by researcher Stefan Maul, the editor of this series.
