Avestica 1: a perfect participle: vaoxuuanho.

Karl F. Geldner's prolegomena and critical apparatus of the Avesta (Avesta the Sacred Book of the Parsis, 3 vols.) were as important as his texts. His prolegomena contains the analysis of the stemmata of his manuscripts. It is important to note that Geldner was initially unappreciative of his work and so relied on inferior manuscripts. Geldner's edition and Karl Hoffman's rigorous standards help in understanding and appreciating Avestan scholarships.

Observations on the Tarsus seal of Puduhepa, Queen of Haiti.

A new reading of the cuneiform inscription on the royal seal found in Tarsus is proposed. I.J. Gelb restored Hetty Goldman's reading of the inscription as [Pu-du]-he-bat DUMU.SAL, according to his own interpretation of the queen's hieroglyphic name. However, it was contended that the queen's name is always written with pa and not with bat, and thus the signs represented the name of the goddess Hebat. This was confirmed by the two identical rings published by Otten which read as Seal of Puduhe...

On the meaning of 'Hatem' in Goethe's West-ostlicher Divan.

The first publication and latest editions of Goethe's love poem entitled, 'West-Eastern Divan' failed to explain the Arabic meaning of the name 'Hatem.' Katharina Mommsen's extensive analysis of the virtues of Hatem Thai and Zograi, the two Arabic poets chosen as Goethe's prototypes in the Book of Suleika, still failed to explain its meaning in Goethe's text. It was contended that Goethe chose the name Hatem to deliberate conceal its meaning.
