The site, in 1998

An international project to put the text and images of an estimated 500,000 recovered cuneiform tablets online.

The tablets date from about 3350 BC to the end of the pre-Christian era. The project began in 1998 and had to wait until 2000 for funding, from the US National Endowment for the Humanities and the National Science Foundation.

Boom era, 1995 to 1998. Netscape, frames, hit counters and animated envelopes. Everyone had a homepage, and every homepage was under construction.

The Establishment: Governments, universities, libraries and archives. Very official.
