This book was released on 2016-09-20 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Transactions of the American Philosophical Society, Vol. 1: Held at Philadelphia, for Promoting Useful Knowledge This building is situated in the centre of a circular area of 520 feet in diameter, at the intersection of Market and Broad Streets, the first running east and west, 100 feet in width; the second north and south, 113 feet in breadth, so that the view towards the four cardinal points is not intercepted. It is erected on a ground plan of 60 feet square, on which is a basement story 21 feet in height, having porticos on the east and west fronts; from this basement, as a pedestal, rises a circular building or rotunda, 40 feet in diameter and 59 feet in height, pierced with sixteen windows and sur mounted by a dome. This building was originally constructed to contain machinery for the introduction of water into the City, but late arrangements adopted for this purpose, have rendered this application of it unnecessary. It was designed by Mr. Latrobe, and built entirely of Pennsylvania marble. It is believed that it may be made very suitable for the object for which it is now appropriated, and the Society are at present occupied in making the necessary arrangements for this effect.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Transactions of the American Philosophical Society, Held at Philadelphia, for Promoting Useful Knowledge, Vol. 18: New Series The old Babylonian Cuneiform Texts, which are published in the following pages, are a part of the harvest gathered by the Expedition sent out in the summer of 1888, under the auspices of the University of Pennsylvania, for the exploration of Babylonia. The Rev. Dr. John P. Peters, Professor of Hebrew in the University of Pennsylvania, was the Director of the Expedition, while the subscriber, as the Assyriologist of the University, accompanied it during the first year of its labors. As the history of the Expedition is to be published by its Director at an early date, I here abstain from giving any account of its origin, members, undertakings and results. In the meantime for the student I have appended to the Introduction a Bibliography of those contributions of its members to various periodicals which relate to its work.
