Since the first fascicle of PNA was published in 1998, new editions of
Neo-Assyrian texts have been published and study of the existing
material has progressed. Inevitably there are a fair number of new
names, as well as new attestations of previously known names, to be
added to the corpus. In some cases the readings of names already
published in PNA have to be revised; similarly, the biographical
details for certain individuals can be updated in the light of recent
research. These developments reflect a healthy interest in and
engagement with the field of Neo-Assyrian studies, of course, but they
make it quite difficult to keep a printed Prosopography up-to-date. To
this end, I have been compiling a database of addenda and
corrigenda to PNA.
