Undena Publications,U.S. Mozan 1: The Soundings of the First Two Seasons
Preliminary soundings were conducted at Tell Mozan in the north-central portion of the Khabur plains in 1984 and 1985. This volume reports on the finds made as well as on various aspects of research goals of the project. The site has proven to be a major urban settlement of the third millennium and early part of the second millennium, with the possibility that it may correspond to ancient Urkish, known to have been a major Hurrian centre in the early periods.

Undena Publications,U.S. The Millennia for Today: Archaeology against War: Yesterday's Urkesh in today's Syria
This book (published in 2019) presents the very particular story of an archaeological site in Syria during the recent eight years of war. The ancient city of Urkesh, today Tell Mozan, in northeastern Syria, became a centre of activities that developed around the archaeological site, a strong and unexpected synergy between a variety of communities and social groups. In strong contrast with the destructive violence of war and the intentional and perverted iconoclastic fury of ISIS, Urkesh has emerged as a source of hope and a reason for pride for the people who live in the area. It became a symbol of the new sensitivity that archaeology as a discipline is developing--a sensitivity towards the value of the land as a shared element betweenthe ancients and the people who live there today. Colour illustrations throughout.
