[1] Horowitz lectures at the Rothberg School for Overseas Students in the Department of Assyriology. [1] Prof. Horowitz is leading a team making available in publication the decipherment of a law code fragment (18th-17th century BCE), the first found in Israel that shows features similar to the law code of Hammurabi.
