MLR dataset of KU Leuven cuneiform tablet NP 46

MLR dataset of KU Leuven cuneiform tablet NP 46 Dataset including the processed results of one Multi-Light Reflectance (MLR) recording + derivates, produced with the KU Leuven Portable Light Dome system >>>CONTENT<<< One inscribed cuneiform tablet, a script from Southwest Asia used in the time period ca. 3500 BCE - 75 AD, a letter dated to the Middle-Assyrian period (1363 BC–912 BCE). Its collection numbers is NP 46, standing for Naster Paul (former professor in Assyriology at KU Leuven and compiler of this collection). The tablet is kept at the KU Leuven, presumably since 1947-1948. >>>PUBLICATION<<< The digital assets of the cuneiform tablet in the dataset has been used for the published study: Hameeuw, Hendrik 2012: "1947: Two Tablets as a Christmas Gift to a Leuven Assyriologist", in: T. Boiy et al. (eds), The Ancient Near East, A Life!
