Herzfeld at Samarra

The Smithsonian Institution's Collections Search Center announced on their blog this morning the launch of a new

Samarra Resource Page
Ernst Herzfeld’s archaeological excavation of Samarra  will mark its 100th anniversary in 2011.  To honor the occasion, the  Freer|Sackler Archives has created the Samarra Resource Page that  collates collections online content, social media content, and related  scholarly content, to provide an easy central resource for all of the  Herzfeld paper materials and products.  Preservation, digitization, and  cataloging have been made possible by the Leon Levy Foundation.
