The AMAR project is almost complete. Directed by Dr Elizabeth Stone of Stony Brook University (New York), the archive currently contains over 550 digitized archaeological site reports of excavations in Iraq and surrounding countries such as Turkey, Syria, Iran and the Gulf States. The reports date from the 19th century and include in-copyright and in-print material as well as out-of-copyright documents.
