The topic of the Indo-Aryans in the ancient Near East has developed into a small, but fascinating research field as the enormous amount of publications indicates which has been produced from the late 19th century into the years of the new millennium. The Bibliographie Raisonnee zu den Indo-Ariern im Alten Orient unifies and enlarges four bibliographies on this topic compiled by M. Mayrhofer between 1966 and 2006, now covering a time span from 1884 until 2011. This collection resumes the strictly linguistic approach of Die Indo-Arier im Alten Vorderasien (1966) within the cultural history and reception of the Indo-Aryans for over 125 years in Indo-European linguistics, Egyptology, Hittitology, ancient Near Eastern philology, Hurrian studies, Ugaritic studies, and Vedic studies.
