The present project is an informative project, periodically updated, to provides a useful item available at all times on the web.
The findings listed there concern texts, seals, and inscribed objects written either in Akkadic or Hittite. Data come from more than 70 archaeological sites spread over a territory extending from the Western Anatolian coast to the Tigris valley and from the Northern Anatolian coast to the Syro-Lebanese border.
The web-site has three sections: Map, Research and References.
The "Map" Section contains the main map, an overview of the entire Syro-Anatolian region with all archaeological sites' points, and it is possible to enlarge selected areas where archeological sites have been placed. For every archaeological site there is a list of specifications, detailing the site's basic information (nation, province, geographical coordinates) and, naturally, information about its archaeological findings (type of inscription and quantity).
In the "Research" pages there are works about seal and text data. Maps have been created to show data diffusion or concentration, while in few charts it's been listed and ordinated the archaeological sites with their findings.
The academic accuracy is completed with the "References", where all the texts and bibliography quoted are listed.
