A new edition of the IE Newsletter has just appeared.

In "Notes & Brief Communications":
- We mark the passing of Oswald Szemerenyi with a short piece by
 Alfred Bammesberger;
- Konstantin Woebking (Universitaet Innsbruck) summarizes the
September Indogermanische Gesellschaft meeting;
- Alfred Bammesberger provides a brief review of Helmut Birkhan's
new book, Kelten: Versuch einer Gesamtdarstellung;
- Henning Andersen has written a synopsis of his latest work,
Reconstructing Prehistorical Dialects: Initial vowels in Slavic and
Baltic.

The essays contained in this issue focus on ancient Greece and
adjacent areas:
- Ivo Hajnal (Indogermanisches Seminar der Universitaet Zuerich) writes
an update on Mycenaean language and texts
- Andreas Schachner (Vorgeschichtliches Seminar der Philipps-
Universitaet, Marburg) reviews recent research in the archaeology of
western Anatolia, which has ramifications for the prehistory of Greece
- Mark Hall (Archaeological Research Facility, UC Berkeley) discusses
advances in radiocarbon dating and suggests what this new work
may mean for dating prehistoric Greece.

In "Report from the Field", Igor Manzura and Mark Tkachuk write on their
Moldovan excavation that may represent a significant new
Sarmatian site.

The Newsletter includes listings of new books, an update on electronic

NOT http://horacio.ieec.uned.ed/cl97.
