Greetings

It has been a very busy day today. I am attending the ARAM conference at the Oriental Institute, Oxford University. The topic is Astrology in the Ancient Near East.

We had several good pspers today. Plus I visited the Ashmolean Museum again (it is right around the corner from the conference). This evening we had our banquet at a nice Lebanese resturant. Tomorrow I chair a session in the morning so I have to make this evenings entry brief.
