[DG] Theo van den Hout

Theo is talking about howthe Hittites (c 1650-1180 B.C.). managed their clay tablets. [Abstract]

He estimates that at any particular time in storage there were about 7,000 tablets being stored and managed. Fragments are identified by date and author. Stacks of shelved tablets were labeled by smaller clay tablets. And they sometimes copied onto one tablet the text of several related tablets.

Fascinating.

Unfortunately, I think the Berkley study is flawed. It does not account for the increase of Republican voters between 2000 and 2004. See
