History of the 1st millennium

Thu, 14 Aug 2008 05:29:29 -0700

Introduction Mesopotamian history in the first millennium BC is characterized by the continuity of imperial domination. The first half of the millennium is dominated by the Neo-Assyrian Empire with its immense boundaries extending far beyond any previous power had achieved. The latter half of the millennium witnesses the quick rise and fall of the Neo-Babylonian Empire under Nebuchadnezzar and then the conquest from the East by the Persians under Cyrus the Great and their rule. Finally, Mes…

Early Explorers Although the ancient Mesopotamians themselves had a number of terms to describe the geographic environment in which they lived, the term Mesopotamia was first used by Greeks and Romans to describe the land between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers in today’s Iraq. Scholars today have expanded the definition of the term to include parts of Syria, Turkey, and Iran, all tied to a uniquely Mesopotamian cultural sphere.

The Sumerian phrase PN u3-na-a-du11, found at the begining of most letters, is equivalent to Akkadian ana PN qibima, “say to PN”. When there are more than one recipient the dative pre-fix of the verbal-chain will mostly take the plural form. However, this is not entirely consistent. A Sumerian noun u3-na-a-du11 (norminalized or frozen verb) is attested as a word for a physical letter.

Thu, 14 Aug 2008 05:29:29 -0700

Introduction The Eduba Curriculum: The scribal school curriculum was divided into two phases of education, basic and advanced. A scribal apprentice would begin his training at a very young age in early childhood (5-7 years old). Only wealthy or elite families had the means to send their children to school. There is evidence of young girls being educated as scribes but the majority of students were young boys.

(return to Old Babylonian Akkadian Literature) Introduction At the Cleaners is a complete text dating to the Old Babylonian period (c.2000-1600 BCE). The genre of text is more difficult to establish however, as it appears to belong to a small class of documents created solely for entertainment. Gadd (1963) compares this style of text with a "Dialogue of Pessimism" (see Spieser, JCS 8, 98). He believes both to be types of comedic skits meant for performing, especially given the apparent sta…

One of the dominant features of this period is redistribution of power among the many Assyrian governors, who maintained Assyrian control and protected Assyrian interests while a weak ruler was in power. While the previous territorial expansions were not lost, the rising power of the Urartian kingdom posed a seri…

Early Dynastic IIIb

Thu, 14 Aug 2008 05:29:32 -0700

The Early Dynastic IIIb period, ca. 2540-2350 BCE, (abbreviated ED IIIb) is conventionally described as covering the century before the defeat of Lugalzagesi by Sargon of Akkad, the founder of the Old Akkadian empire. While the end of the ED IIIb period can, therefore, be assigned to this particular event, the beginning of the ED IIIb period is far more difficult to define.

introduction blurb .... The Name Ur III The period commonly known as the Ur III period—short for the Third Dynasty of Ur—has been named according to its place in the Sumerian King List (SKL), where it figures as the third dynasty originating in Ur holding hegemony over Sumer. The existence of a Second Ur Dynasty has been doubted, but the name Ur III remains standard.

This page is under construction! A new sign-list for linear-Elamite will be presented here shortly. What is Linear-Elamite? Linear-Elamite is the conventional name of a writing system attested in a handful of inscriptions from Susa of uncertain date. The excavated Susa texts can be divided into two groups of texts: display texts and non-display texts. Some recently published linear-Elamite texts from illegal excavations are found on metal objects. These are presumably all modern fakes. Althou…

Introduction to Babylonian Mathematics Mathematics was an active discipline in Mesopotamia since the earliest periods of writing in the mid-fourth millennium BC. However, if we are to judge by the number and age of the cuneiform mathematical texts we possess, it appears that mathematics reached its apex during the Old Babylonian period. At the outset, it should be mentioned that Babylonian mathematics was largely an applied science. Unlike classical Greek mathematics, Babylonian mathematics was …

Mesopotamian Religion

Fri, 04 Apr 2008 14:59:04 -0700

The Beginnings of Mesopotamian Religion Mesopotamian religion has a long history of development, stretching well beyond the third millennium BC. Its roots lie in the prehistory of Sumerian civilization, before the invention of writing or the formation of city-states. Before being crowded into a dense urban environment with its unique set of protocols and hazards, the early Sumerians lived in diffuse village communities. They encountered nature on a more basic and immediate level. Hence it is n…

The majority of the letters are concerned with the transfer of goods from one person or institution to another. This is described with the verb sum “to give”. The verbal form is always maru stem (/sum-e/ < sum-mu) and precative ha- / he2- prefix. Some derivations from this rule can be explained as scribal errors (he2-na-ab-sum-e in TCS 1 192 is overly correct and in principle an error).

The Neo-Assyrian Empire

Fri, 02 May 2008 01:45:53 -0700

Introduction The Neo-Assyrian Empire is best understood in continuity with its forebears in the Middle Assyrian period (1365-1031). The Neo-Assyrian kings considered themselves part of an unbroken line of kings stretching as far back as 1500 BC. Neo-Assyrian expansion relied upon an ideology of regaining Assyrian territory rather than one of conquest initially. Calendrical systems, inscriptional formulae, and the centrality of Ashur and its hinterland remained fundamental concepts after th…

Nimrud (Kalhu)

Sat, 28 Mar 2009 05:36:55 -0700

Introduction The site of Nimrud is located on the Tigris River southeast of Mosul in the north of modern day Iraq. Today the city lies some kilometers east of the Tigris, but in antiquity the river flowed along the northwest side of the acropolis. The site was occupied intermittently from the 6th millennium BC to at least the Hellenistic period, but the most significant period of occupation occurred during the Late Assyrian period, when Ashurnasirpal II (883-859 BC) built Nimrud as the capit…

A dried canal bed (Shatt-en-Nil) bisects the site into a Western and Eastern Mound. A small gully divides the eastern mound into Tablet Hill, or the Scribal Quarter, …

Number Signs

Fri, 09 May 2008 16:01:40 -0700

The cuneiform writing system makes use of several different numerical systems, many of which are coded through distinctive cuneiform signs. The basic repertoire has been put together in several of the background documents for the ATF conventions, but idiosyntactic and previously poorly known number signs are discussed here.

Proto-cuneiform A Short History of Proto-Cuneiform (from: Hans J. Nissen, Peter Damerow and Robert K. Englund, Archaic Bookkeeping [University of Chicago Press: Chicago 1993]) The earliest true script in man's history emerged at the end of the fourth millennium B.C. in ancient Babylonia, the southern part of today's Iraq. The signs of this script were impressed with the aid of a stylus into the still soft surface of clay tablets. Such clay tablets hardened almost immediately in the dry and h…

What is Proto-Cuneiform? It may come as a surprise that the earliest instances of writing in Mesopotamia come not from public decrees, religious incantations, or other translates of the spoken word, but rather economic texts recording quantities of commerical goods. By the time Sumerians were composing poetry in the mid third millennium BC, writing had already been is use for over five hundred years (Michalowski). The earliest version of a writing system the Mesopotamians used did not originat…

History of Decipherment of Proto-Elamite

History of Decipherment of Proto-Elamite Proto-Elamite is still largely undeciphered, although a majority of the material has been abailable for study for more than three quarters of a century. Early work on proto-Elamite centered around comparing individual signs with signs from the neighboring cuneiform writing system. It has since been conclusively shown that a graphical similarity between signs from two writing systems is not proof of a semantical similarity.

Basic Semantic Classification of Proto-Elamite Signary

Thu, 14 Aug 2008 05:29:40 -0700

Basic Semantic Classification of Proto-Elamite Signary Basically, proto-Elamite signs can be divided into five groups according to their place and function in the sentence. Sentence is used here to denote each self-contained unit in a proto-Elamite text; the header, an entry, the subscript, or the total (see also Englund 2004, 105 figure 5.3a). The five groups are 1) signs denoting an “owner” or a “household”, understood in the broadest of terms, as an individual, a temple or family hou…

What is Proto-Elamite?

Thu, 14 Aug 2008 05:29:40 -0700

What is Proto-Elamite? The first indigenous writing system from Iran is called proto-Elamite, it was long thought of as a precursor to a (hypothetical) indigenous Elamite writing system. Proto-Elamite, as well as Linear-Elamite, remains largely un-deciphered. At present it is idle speculation to postulate a relationship between the two writing systems.

Writing Phases

Thu, 14 Aug 2008 05:29:40 -0700

Writing Phases We are able to distinguish five stages of early writing at Susa; these are tokens and bullae, numerical tablets, numero-ideographic tablets, Uruk IV style tablets, early proto-Elamite tablets, and late proto-Elamite tablets. Numero-ideographic tablets from Iran can be distinguished from Mesopotamian ones only by the order of the numerical signs and non numerical signs; in Iran the numerical signs follow the object they qualify, whereas the reverse order is found in texts from Me…

About the CDLI online sign lists The Cuneiform Digital Library Initiative (CDLI) sees as one of its major goals the implementation of an online sign list for the early phases of cuneiform, ca. 3300-2000 B.C. This represents a period of often rapid development in both the graphic form, and the semantic or phonetic referents of individual signs of the cuneiform repertory that has, due to a number of reasons, not been well documented in the published Assyriological literature.

Thu, 14 Aug 2008 05:29:44 -0700

(return to Old Babylonian Akkadian Literature) NOTOC Introduction The text entitled The Faithful Lover was first published by Wolfram von Soden in 1950 as “Ein Zwiegespräch Hammurabis mit einer Frau,” (von Soden 1950). In 1961 it was then re-edited and published in English translation by Moshe Held in a paper entitled “A Faithful Lover in an Old Babylonian Dialogue,” (Held 1961) from which Foster drew the title used here.

The Fall of the Neo-Assyrian Empire, 630-609 BC

Wed, 14 May 2008 19:04:55 -0700

The demise of the Neo-Assyrian Empire is somewhat obscure due to the patchiness of the textual sources, but some conclusions can be made. First, following the reign of Ashurbanipal the kingship of Assyria was held by 3 weak figures who ultimately held little or no sway in Babylon. Second, Nabopolassar’s rise to prominence in the mid-620s in Babylon would eventually lead to the demise of Assyria. Nabopolassar consolidated his power over Babylon until 621/20 BC and then in 616 BC began his mo…

The Late Uruk Period

Sun, 05 Oct 2008 15:53:14 -0700

Introduction The earliest true script in man's history emerged at the end of the fourth millennium B.C. in ancient Babylonia, the southern part of today's Iraq. The signs of this script were impressed with the aid of a stylus into the still soft surface of clay tablets. Such clay tablets hardened almost immediately in the dry and hot climate of that part of the world. As a result of this hardening, and because such lumps of clay could not be reused, these documents from early Babylonia survive…

The Pax Assyriaca, 704-631 BC

Wed, 14 May 2008 19:04:04 -0700

The kings following the period of expansion enjoyed the vast territory and immense wealth of their predecessors and primarily engaged only in border campaigns, internal suppression of revolts, and some punitive, military action. Sennacherib was primarily preoccupied with Babylonian affairs, though he did war in Anatolia, the Levant, and Syria. Esarhaddon carried out punitive action against Egypt in 671 BC for its role in fomenting unrest and rebellion among the small Palestinian states. This …

The Province of Umma

Sat, 28 Mar 2009 05:23:07 -0700

The province of Umma is located northwest of the Lagash province and northeast of the Uruk province. During the Ur III period the province was centered almost exclusively at Umma, modern Tell Djokha (click here for a description of Umma during the Ur III period). During the Presargonic period it is possible that the main center was Tell al-Agrib located to the southeast of Umma.

The Province of Umma

Sun, 25 Jan 2009 09:09:14 -0700

During the Ur III period the city of Umma (modern Tell Djokha) was the capital of the Umma province. Umma has never been scientifically excavated, but it was extensively plundered during the first quarter of the 20th century. The identification of Tell Djokha with Umma was determined on the basis of a few surface finds made at the same time. During the remaining part of the 20th century Tell Djokha was apparently covered by sand dunes, preventing any excavations. Recently, Umma has again been ex…

These wiki-pages aim at confirming and updating the standard typology of Sumerian letters used since the publication of TCS 1, based on the explosion in the number of available primary documents (see for example B. Lafont 1990) (click here for a complete list of Ur III letters).

Introduction Our failure to establish, beyond doubt, a genealogy for the royal family of the Ur III state remains puzzling. Several elite provincial clans, such as the Umma or the Nippur ruling families, are very well known. Very few texts, however, provide any clues as to the genealogy of the royal family; princes are referred to as "son of the king" only. Neither the third ruler (Amar-Suen), nor the fifth (Ibbi-Suen) is ever mentioned before he became king. Most contemporary references to me…

Schneider (1920) and - modified, in line with the then current state of research - of A. Falkenstein (1953-1954: 784-814) were indebted. Starting point and object of these examinations were the documents of the pre-Sargonic archives from Girsu of the Early Dynastic IIIb period (ca. 2500-2350, of which only the final two decades were…

Uruk continued to grow in the Early Dynastic period (2900-2350 BC), reaching a size of about 400 hectares. After the end of the Early Dynastic period, the city declined in size and significa…

2 Definition Web 2.0

Tue, 04 Dec 2007 03:55:30 -0700

2 Definition Web 2.0 Was beinhaltet das „Buzzword“ Web 2.0? Nicht erst seit einige Firmen dieses als Marketing-Schlagwort verwenden, ist unklar, was genau der Begriff „Web 2.0“ überhaubt bezeichnen soll. Web 2.0 ist keine Technologie, die sich durchgesetzt hat, kein neues Protokoll und keine neue Programmiersprache. Es ist vielmehr eine Verbindung vieler kleiner Faktoren, die in ihrer Kombination eine neue Sichtweise auf das Internet ergeben. Dieses wurde durch eine Rückbesinn…

Writing and Language

Thu, 29 Nov 2007 03:45:14 -0700

The writing system is both the earliest writing system and among the longest in use in human history. Although conventionally dated to 3200 BCE, radiocarbon dates seem to be moving the earliest form of the cuneiform script, known as Proto-cuneiform, even earlier in time. Perhaps a century after the initial formation of Proto-cuneiform, the innovation spread to administrative centers in Iran in a form of writing known as Proto-Elamite. As part of an ongoing effort at CDLI, to make the text-artifa…
