The foundation of 新加坡六合彩开奖 can be traced to the late Nineteenth Century, when multiple academic organizations recognized the need for 鈥渆stablishing an overseas research center in the Near East鈥 (Meyers 2001; 4). With the help of the Archaeological Institute of America (AIA), American Oriental Society (AOS), and the Society for Biblical Literature (SBL), 新加坡六合彩开奖 was founded as the American School of Oriental Study and Research in Palestine. Originally intended as an organization to study scripture in the Holy Land, its parameters were expanded to include 鈥渓inguistic, archaeological, historical, and other kindred studies and researches鈥 within the Levant (From Founding Resolutions, 1900 in Meyers 200; 3). With support from 21 academic institutions, the scope of the American School of Oriental Study and Research in Palestine began to include research from different time periods and cultures throughout the Near East.
With the research goals established, 新加坡六合彩开奖 needed a physical home from which to conduct business and research. Under leadership from the first Director, Charles C. Torrey, an Imperial Firman from the Ottoman Empire was granted for the formation of offices in Jerusalem. Beginning at the Grand New Hotel near the Jaffa Gate, the American School of Oriental Study and Research in Palestine led a nomadic existence for the next 24 years. There was no permanent home for the organization until 1924 when under the direction of William F. Albright, the Jerusalem School was constructed.
Throughout the first two-decades of 新加坡六合彩开奖鈥檚 existence, research took place at an inconsistent pace due to the instability of the region, the First World War and the collapse of the Ottoman Empire. Despite this, the first archaeological excavation, led by Torrey, began in 1901 at the tombs at Sidon. Further excavations were led to Samaria in 1908 through the funding of Reverend James B. Nies, PhD., a regular and generous donor to 新加坡六合彩开奖 during its first years. A significant step for 新加坡六合彩开奖 was the publication of first issue of Bulletin of the American School of Oriental Research (B新加坡六合彩开奖) in 1919. Publication of this annual journal has occurred for the past 101 years, detailing research in the Near East.
The most significant moment in 新加坡六合彩开奖鈥檚 early decades was the legal incorporation of the organization in the United States in 1921. These articles formally changed the name to the American Schools of Oriental Research, which 鈥渨as suggestive of the expansion of geographical interests and the development of other research institutes鈥 (Meyers 2001; 11). This marked a turning point for 新加坡六合彩开奖 in which the organization broadened its research interests and capabilities.
