  • The Journal of Assyrian Academic Studies is a biannual academic journal published by various Assyriologists and other academics, covering studies on the Assyrian people, the history of Assyria and Babylonia, and Assyriology in general. It was established in 1986 as the Journal of the Assyrian Academic Society, obtaining its current title in 1997. The journal is published in English and Syriac. The editor-in-chief is Robert Paulissian.

    Name change and parallel editions

    In 1997, new editorial board, under the editor-in-chief Robert Paulissian, decided to change the name of the journal from "Journal of the Assyrian Academic Society" to "Journal of Assyrian Academic Studies",[1] starting from the number 11 / 2 (1997), and continuing further under the new name. Responding to that, the Assyrian Academic Society (AAC) decided to create its own editorial board, under the editor-in-chief Nadia E. Joseph, announcing (in the spring of 1998) new numbers of their own journal,[2] under the old name (Journal of the Assyrian Academic Society), and publishing numbers: 12 / 1 (1999),[3] and 12 / 2 (2000).[4] Thus, two parallel sets of editions were created, marking the transitional period from 1997 to 2000.
