Hello. Silim. Shlomo.

I'm Arim Hawsho, a Swedish-Assyrian independent writer and researcher.

​

Since 2019 I've been working on a cookbook – Table of Gods – inspired by the world's oldest recipes from ancient Mesopotamia. A civilization I have ties to through my DNA and the culture I was raised in. Which is why I comprehend the cuneiform language Akkadian, celebrate New Year (Akitu) in April, and have grown up eating food that my ancestors devoured thousands of years ago.

​

My mission is to make Mesopotamian history and culture interesting and accessible to everyone. My work has been featured on TV, radio, podcasts, and newspapers in Sweden and abroad.

You’ll get three recipes to try right away. And one monthly email on our progress toward launching Table of Gods (planned release, 2024).

We’ve sent you an email. If it’s not in your primary inbox, check your other inboxes.

How I got the idea​.

I made a video describing how I got the idea for the book. I also talk about the culinary tablets with the world's oldest recipes – and the challenges with recreating them.

Say hi. Or shlomo.

If you want to get in touch, send an email to arim@tableofgods.com. I'm based in Stockholm.
