Yep. I think there's an old tradition of lumping together all ancient near-east languages into Akkadian(America) and Assyrian(Europe). These books are good/old. http://psd.museum.upenn.edu/nepsd-frame.html … is a UPenn online dictionary one of my supervisors coded at the museum. Show's cuneiform too!
Oh yeah, ePSD is awesome. Can I report a bug? In the distribution profile, all of the links are broken. For example, http://psd.museum.upenn.edu/cgi-bin/distprof?cfgw=kur[mountain]&res=eka&eid=e3180 … You can click on "sum kur" or "ED Plants 108" but one is server not found and the other is a 404.

Unfortunately, I believe dev has paused for some time. I -think- there is eventual interest in a RESTful interface that links up with digital copies of the source tablets/seals in the museum's online resources, e.g. ur-online, or CDL(Cuneiform Digital Library).

@AxiomVerge I made you a quick manual to brute force navigate the systems lol. Here's what you'd do with "ED Plants 108" -- use ORACC with this link: http://oracc.museum.upenn.edu/dcclt/pager pic.twitter.com/LmE6uVX0yU
