Adapa Monographs
Adapa was the Sumerian sage of wisdom. He was gifted with this ability by Enki, the god of wisdom and waters. Adapa was originally honoured at the Sumerian city of Eridu. Eventually, his wise counsel spread across the Sumerian world.
The Adapa Monographs series focuses on the archaeology of the ancient Near East and adjacent areas from North Africa to Central Asia. Archaeology in these regions is a vibrant and active field of research, further stimulated by issues relating to the loss of cultural heritage to war and other factors. The series is published in association with the Near Eastern Archaeology Foundation at the University of Sydney.
