Landscapes of Settlement and Movement in Northeastern Syria

This study contains CORONA satellite images that were used to identify sites and landscape features in northeastern Syria and adjacent regions. Most prominently, they are the source for the maps of sites and premodern trackways that appear in Ur, J. A. in press. Urbanism and Cultural Landscapes in Northeastern Syria: The Tell Hamoukar Survey, 1999-2001. Oriental Institute Publications 139. Chicago: University of Chicago Oriental Institute. All images are in Erdas Imagine (.img) format and are in the Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) projection (Zone 37 north) using the WGS 1984 datum. For more information on the processing and interpretation of these CORONA scenes, see the above monograph.
