General concepts about kissing in Mesopotamian civilization

Abstract

    Kissing is one of the aspects of civilization that the people of Mesopotamia practiced throughout the different ages. The goals and motives of kissing differed from one person to another and from one situation to another. Since this topic is one of the topics that has rarely been addressed by researchers, the two researchers decided to address it and highlight the most important aspects associated with this topic, relying primarily on the information that the cuneiform texts produced about this topic.
