Hello.
One of the strongest arguments against the WTS's 607 chronology is the large number of cuniform tablets dated in the periode 607-587bc which make the likelihood of an unknown king or extra regnal years very low. However, i think it is most fair that i check this out myself and verify that the material is indeed as convincing as i has heard - ie. the dates on the cuniform texts are relatively uncorrolated, that their number is not inflated, etc. So thats what im trying to figure out. I have found these sites by monkeying around for an hour:
http://cdli.ucla.edu/collections/bm/bm.html
But when i search the archive i do not find any date information at all - apparently it is not registered in the system, even though it is described in length how it would be registered!
So i would like to ask the scholars here who has checked out this line of evidence what they consider a good resource? Preferably, i would like the raw dataset as a text file i could parse myself and make sure the claims are statistically valid, but alternatively it would be neat with just an article describing how many text there are how many are dated to each babylonian king (or something like that).
Kind regards!
