Breaking the rules, again -- CAJ Freebies

[Jacques Cinq-Mars]

Apologies, but, given my status on this Forum, and the fact that what follows has more to do with primary sources or literature than with miscellaneous websites, I take the liberty of posting this in "Bookyard",

Apologies, also,  if this has been mentioned before, but, as I was trying to clean up my bookmarks, I accidentally retrieved the following: the 2000, Vo.1 No.1 issue of the CAJ which happens to be available online here.

Here are the titles of the articles/reviews:

I don't know what to do with "Triskeles" and "Cahokia" in the context of this Forum, but I can assure you that the d'Errico and Nowell paper is worth downloading  (if you don't already have a copy of it).

Dear Jacques,

I'm sure it would be worth reading, but the d'Errico & Nowell pdf is a whopping 64 million (yes 64,000,000, as compared to the usual less than 1 million) bytes, with an estimated download time on my computer of about 9 hours, even if my files could handle an additional 64 MB.

Unfortunately,
Dar

Dar,

Sorry to hear about that. Fortunately for me, my high speed connection allowed my computer to swallow it all up in a few minutes. But, you are right, the file is impressive. Almost a book, a lengthy paper, comments by Bar-Yosef, Close, Mithen, Wynn, and Marshack, and about 23, large Figures. All in all, 45 pages. All you wanted to know about the Berekhat Ram Figurine. The kind of stuff that, in my view, would be more readily available to all if it were published in PALANTH (the Journal)!

I tried to link to the journal so I could download the Berekhat Ram figurine  piece, but I searched and searched and I couldn't get to the right place.  Can anybody else tell me how *they* did it?
