	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Assyria
		The very existence of such a language had been forgotten, and its writing seemed so capricious and bewildering that the earlier European travellers mistook the characters for fantastic and bizarre ornamental decorations; their dagger- or arrow-headed shape (from which their name of cuneiform) presenting a difficult puzzle.
		This Babylonian influence, indeed, can be equally traced in its different forms and manifestations through all western Asia, many centuries before that conquest of Palestine by the twelve Israelitish tribes which put an end to the Canaanitish dominion and supremacy.
		An examination of the religions of the two countries proves that the Assyrians adopted Babylonian doctrines, cults, and rites, with such slight modifications as were called for by the conditions prevailing in the northern country.

	Globalisation and Its Impact on International University Cooperation1
		Many, if not most international university organisations, were formed out of sheer determination on the part of their founders to maintain a sense of institutional control and to pursue the development of their own unique organisational identity, usually in the form of niche markets.
		Others regard the development of their international university organisations as their only means for survival, whether that may relate to culture, language, or special ‘localised’ interest.
		In discerning mono-disciplinary cooperative arrangements between the University and other partner institutions, it was determined that incentives for growth had to involve the prospect of enhanced status in the eyes of students and staff, a competitive stance with other like-minded organisations, and a minimal financial outlay (Neave, 1991; 103).
