The present work is the last contribution to the edition „Répertoire Géographique des Textes Cunéiformes“ (RGTC). Thirteen volumes have been already published in this series and they became - along with the corresponding TAVO-historical maps - an important research tool in the field of the historical geography of the Ancient Near East. This volume presents the place names from the Neo-Assyrian period in two parts. The first volume (RGTC 7/1) comprises the toponyms from the Levant. The second volume (RGTC 7/2), now in preparation, includes the place names from the remaining regions, namely the northern, southern and eastern regions, as well as from Egypt and the Assyrian heartland. Although the arrangement of earlier volumes was followed, the critical commentary of the secondary literature demands a more extensive treatment in this volume.

Historical geography is one of the most important disciplines which allow a reconstruction of the history of the Ancient Near East. There are principally the cuneiform sources which open the access to the numerous attested geographical names. The present volumes are the second part of the Neo-Assyrian toponyms for the series Répertoire Géographique des Textes Cunéiformes (RGTC 7). RGTC 7/2 comprises approx. 1500 toponyms from the Assyrian heartland and neighbouring areas (the Transtigridean region, the Middle Euphrates, the Northern Jezireh, the Habur-Basin, the Eastern Jezireh and Northern Mesopotamia), as well from Egypt and the Arabian peninsula. The first part was published by the author in 2007 and dealt with the Levant (RGTC 7/1). The third and last part (RGTC 7/3) is in preparation and will cover the Eastern regions of the Assyrian empire and Babylonia.

RGTC 7/3 comprises approx. 1400 toponyms and further 500 fragmentary place names from the Eastern regions of the Assyrian empire, Urarṭu, and Babylonia. Furthermore, places of unknown location were also included. As in the first two volumes, RGTC 7/3 has detailed registers as well as two appendices with additions and corrections to RGTC 7/1 and RGTC 7/2.
