Ancient Near Eastern Studies


Explanation:
The designation of "Estudios Cananeos" for the entity in question seems whimsical, if not downright misleading, given that its stated mission encompasses the study of the entire region of the Near East during ancient times, and is not limited to the sliver of territory once designated as "Canaan."
