BAGHDAD COMMITTEE
The Baghdad Committee (whose formal name is the Committee on Mesopotamian Civilization) oversees the production of the Journal of Cuneiform Studies (JCS), has published a newsletter on archaeological and other research in Iraq, has coordinated field projects throughout Iraq, and for a period of time had an Institute functioning in Baghdad. The committee recommends recipients for the Mesopotamian Fellowship to the 17³Ô¹Ïboard. This fellowship funds researchers studying the region, through the generosity of the James B. Nies Trust.
