Are you working on a book on ancient Near Eastern or Mediterranean religions? Consider publishing with the RAM series at Eisenbrauns. We have some great titles lined up, and yours could be next! https://t.co/urtZfDxbRd

@edighafrancisca I think the biggest takeaway is how similar these types of deities are to more anthroform (humanlike) deities. The same mental mechanisms and templates that produce all god concepts are at work with these types of deities.

@LasseAcademia I discuss some qualities/attributes of YHWH as deities at Elephantine in chapter 8. You might find that interesting!

[Dr. Jen Singletary @SingletaryJen]

@Tylerfagin Cool idea, thanks!

[Dr. Jen Singletary @SingletaryJen]

@edighafrancisca Great idea! I will do that!

[Dr. Jen Singletary @SingletaryJen]

@SusannePetruss2 I was inspired to look toward cognitive science for answers because I was discontent with approaches that overemphasized the difference between anthropomorphic and nonanthropomorphic conceptions of deity and attributed them to differences in cognition.

@QuevenRib I don't discuss Lamassus in the book. Interesting topic though!

[Dr. Jen Singletary @SingletaryJen]

@RaleighHeth Looks awesome! I can't wait to get a copy!

[Dr. Jen Singletary @SingletaryJen]

My forthcoming book has a cover!

Filling out the author questionnaire for my book that is moving into typesetting is really making it feel real that it is near to publication!

[Dr. Jen Singletary @SingletaryJen]

@stawiggins What a cool event! If they have it again next year I might have to check it out!

[Dr. Jen Singletary @SingletaryJen]

@scholarhacker I'll reveal it soon!

[Dr. Jen Singletary @SingletaryJen]

Coming soon! (And it will be open-access!)

I'm so saddened by the loss of our colleague, Don Redford. I had the privilege of sitting in on his Egyptian language courses last year. He was an amazing teacher and friend, as well as an incredibly prolific scholar.

[Penn State CAMS @psu_cams]

The CAMS Department mourns the loss of our colleague, Don Redford, a titan of Egyptology and a mentor to generations of students. His accomplishments as a scholar were unmatched, and it was our honor to be his co-workers. Our hearts go out to his family. Rest in peace, Don.
