  • The Case System of West-Semitized Amarna Akkadian
    THE CASE SYSTEM OF WEST-SEMITIZED AMARNA AKKADIAN MAARTEN KOSSMANN (LEIDEN) In describing Amarna Akkadian1), most authors have laid emphasis on the analysis of the verbal System. This is not at all surprising because the system is totally different from the one we find m Standard Akkadian and clearly reflects the West-Semitic system. As short final vowels are preserved in Amarna Akkadian, and so the original tense-aspect distinctions, the language is of vital importance m the reconstruction of Proto-West-Semitic. It is remarkable that hardly any work has been done on the case system. Apart from a few brief observations by Böhl and Dhorme2) and a few loose remarks in articles pnmarily dealing with other subjects, philological or linguistic3) or describing the entire grammar of one subcorpus4), no endeavour has, as far as I am aware, been made to analyse the case system. This is regrettable because from what we know of the verbal system we may assume that in Amarna Akkadian the case system too reflects West-Semitic usage to some extent. In Proto-West-Semitic, case was expressed mainly by short final vowels. Together with Ugaritic, Amarna Akkadian seems to show the most ancient West-Semitic case system attested. The Amarna Akkadian evidence is far more vaned and philologically far less complicated than the Ugaritic evidence, where we must inevitably confme ourselves to IH'-nouns.

  • Sumerian Lexicon, Version 3.0 1 A
    Sumerian Lexicon Version 3.0 by John A. Halloran The following lexicon contains 1,255 Sumerian logogram words and 2,511 Sumerian compound words. A logogram is a reading of a cuneiform sign which represents a word in the spoken language. Sumerian scribes invented the practice of writing in cuneiform on clay tablets sometime around 3400 B.C. in the Uruk/Warka region of southern Iraq. The language that they spoke, Sumerian, is known to us through a large body of texts and through bilingual cuneiform dictionaries of Sumerian and Akkadian, the language of their Semitic successors, to which Sumerian is not related. These bilingual dictionaries date from the Old Babylonian period (1800-1600 B.C.), by which time Sumerian had ceased to be spoken, except by the scribes. The earliest and most important words in Sumerian had their own cuneiform signs, whose origins were pictographic, making an initial repertoire of about a thousand signs or logograms. Beyond these words, two-thirds of this lexicon now consists of words that are transparent compounds of separate logogram words. I have greatly expanded the section containing compounds in this version, but I know that many more compound words could be added. Many cuneiform signs can be pronounced in more than one way and often two or more signs share the same pronunciation, in which case it is necessary to indicate in the transliteration which cuneiform sign is meant; Assyriologists have developed a system whereby the second homophone is marked by an acute accent (´), the third homophone by a grave accent (`), and the remainder by subscript numerals.

  • The {Amârnah Texts a Century After Flinders Petrie
    ANES 39 (2002) 44-75 The {Amârnah Texts a Century after Flinders Petrie Anson F. RAINEY International Visiting Research Scholar Centre for Classics and Archaeology University of Melbourne Victoria 3010 AUSTRALIA E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The ensuing remarks seek to elucidate some of the central issues in the study of the cuneiform texts discovered at Tell el-¨Amârnah in Egypt. Progress in the study of the language, the social structure of Canaan at that time and certain historical problems will be reviewed. After an accidental find by a village woman in 1887. Sir William Matthew Flinders Petrie was the first modern scholar to conduct archaeological excavations at the actual site. His work determined the probable spot where the tablets had been deposited when the ancient town was abandoned. Subsequently, Petrie articulated various interpretations of the evidence from the archaeological finds and also from the inscriptions. During the twentieth century, research was continued on all the many facets of these momentous discoveries. The focus in this paper is on the cuneiform epistles, the international and parochial correspondence that involved the Egyptian gov- ernment.* * The present article is an expansion of the ‘2002 Flinders Petrie Oration,’ delivered on behalf of the Australian Institute of Archaeology and the Archaeological Research Unit, The School of Ecology and Environment, Deakin University, Burwood, Victoria, Australia, on 30 August, 2002. A much shorter version had been presented under the title, ‘The ¨Amârnah Tablets — A Late Bronze Age Phenomenon,’ at the Joint Meeting of the Midwest Region of the Society of Biblical Literature, the Middle West Branch of the American Oriental Society and the American Schools of Oriental Research—Midwest, Wheaton, IL., 16-18 February, 1997.

  • The Epic of Gilgamesh
    Semantikon.com presents An Old Babylonian Version of the Gilgamesh Epic On the Basis of Recently Discovered Texts By Morris Jastrow Jr., Ph.D., LL.D. Professor of Semitic Languages, University of Pennsylvania And Albert T. Clay, Ph.D., LL.D., Litt.D. Professor of Assyriology and Babylonian Literature, Yale University In Memory of William Max Müller (1863-1919) Whose life was devoted to Egyptological research which he greatly enriched by many contributions PREFATORY NOTE The Introduction, the Commentary to the two tablets, and the Appendix, are by Professor Jastrow, and for these he assumes the sole responsibility. The text of the Yale tablet is by Professor Clay. The transliteration and the translation of the two tablets represent the joint work of the two authors. In the transliteration of the two tablets, C. E. Keiser's "System of Accentuation for Sumero-Akkadian signs" (Yale Oriental Researches--VOL. IX, Appendix, New Haven, 1919) has been followed. INTRODUCTION. I. The Gilgamesh Epic is the most notable literary product of Babylonia as yet discovered in the mounds of Mesopotamia. It recounts the exploits and adventures of a favorite hero, and in its final form covers twelve tablets, each tablet consisting of six columns (three on the obverse and three on the reverse) of about 50 lines for each column, or a total of about 3600 lines. Of this total, however, barely more than one-half has been found among the remains of the great collection of cuneiform tablets gathered by King Ashurbanapal (668-626 B.C.) in his palace at Nineveh, and discovered by Layard in 1854 [1] in the course of his excavations of the mound Kouyunjik (opposite Mosul).

  • Planets in Ancient Mesopotamia
    Enn Kasak, Raul Veede UNDERSTANDING PLANETS IN ANCIENT MESOPOTAMIA This is a copy of the article from printed version of electronic journal Folklore Vol. 16 ISSN 1406-0957 Editors Mare Kõiva & Andres Kuperjanov Published by the Folk Belief and Media Group of ELM Electronic Journal of Folklore Electronic version ISSN 1406-0949 is available from http://haldjas.folklore.ee/folklore It’s free but do give us credit when you cite! © Folk Belief and Media Group of ELM, Andres Kuperjanov Tartu 2001 6 UNDERSTANDING PLANETS IN ANCIENT MESOPOTAMIA Enn Kasak, Raul Veede On our planet time flows evenly everywhere but the history as we know it has different length and depth in every place. Maybe the deepest layer of history lies in the land between Tigris and Eufrat – Mesopotamia (Greek Mesopotam a ‘the land between two rivers’). It is hard to grasp how much our current culture has inherited from the people of that land – be it either the wheel, the art of writing, or the units for measuring time and angles. Science and knowledge of stars has always – though with varying success – been important in European culture. Much from the Babylonian beliefs about con- stellations and planets have reached our days. Planets had an im- portant place in Babylonian astral religion, they were observed as much for calendrical as astrological purposes, and the qualities of the planetary gods were carried on to Greek and Rome. The following started out as an attempt to compose a list of planets together with corresponding gods who lend their names and quali- ties to the planets.

YALE BABYLONIAN COLLECTION New Haven The publication of thiS volume haS been made possible by a grant from Elizabeth DebevoiSe Healy in honor of her grandfather, Albert T. Clay. FOREWORD The publication of the present work has a long and complicated history. When FerriS J Stephens retired from the curatorship of the Babylonian Collection in 1962, and I arrived to take his place, one of the first problems confronting me was a large backlog of unfinished and half-finished manuscripts. These included dissertations written under the direction of Stephens or of Albrecht Goetze, and monographs and collections of copies prepared by former students and other collaborators. I therefore decided to bring the authorS in question back to New Haven to finish their manuscripts where possible, or to enlist other collaborators for the same purpose where it was not. To this end, applications were successfully made to the National Endowment for the Humanities for summer grants—five in all during the period 1968-77—which eventually resulted in, or contributed materially to, the publication of a dozen monographs (BIN 3, YNER 4-7, and YOS 11-14 and 17-18, as well as B.

  • The Gilgameš Epic at Ugarit
    The Gilgameš epic at Ugarit Andrew R. George − London [Fourteen years ago came the announcement that several twelfth-century pieces of the Babylonian poem of Gilgameš had been excavated at Ugarit, now Ras Shamra on the Mediterranean coast. This article is written in response to their editio princeps as texts nos. 42–5 in M. Daniel Arnaud’s brand-new collection of Babylonian library tablets from Ugarit (Arnaud 2007). It takes a second look at the Ugarit fragments, and considers especially their relationship to the other Gilgameš material.] The history of the Babylonian Gilgameš epic falls into two halves that roughly correspond to the second and first millennia BC respectively. 1 In the first millennium we find multiple witnesses to its text that come exclusively from Babylonia and Assyria. They allow the reconstruction of a poem in which the sequence of lines, passages and episodes is more or less fixed and the text more or less stable, and present essentially the same, standardized version of the poem. With the exception of a few Assyrian tablets that are relics of an older version (or versions), all first-millennium tablets can be fitted into this Standard Babylonian poem, known in antiquity as ša naqba īmuru “He who saw the Deep”. The second millennium presents a very different picture. For one thing, pieces come from Syria, Palestine and Anatolia as well as Babylonia and Assyria. These fragments show that many different versions of the poem were extant at one time or another during the Old and Middle Babylonian periods. In addition, Hittite and Hurrian paraphrases existed alongside the Akkadian texts.

    JASTROW : EGYPT AND PALESTINE, 1400 B.C. 95 Egypt and Palestine, 1400 B.C.1 PROF. MORRIS JASTROW1 JR. UR knowledge of the early history of Palestine is still compara­ O tively scanty, and this, despite the remarkable discoveries and researches of the past decades, which have so greatly extended our vista of antiquity. While we possess documents which enable us to follow the course of events in southern Mesopotamia from a period as remote at least as 2 700 B.c., and the monuments of Egypt take us back, it is claimed, to a still earlier period, we know but little from native sources of the internal affairs of Palestine outside of the con­ federacy of the Beni Israel previous to the tenth century B.c. ; and even in the case of this confederacy the sources become exceedingly vague, and finally uncertain, as we approach the border-line in its history marked by what is commonly known as the" Exodus." For the period previous to the Exodus, the pages of Genesis, though abounding in historical reminiscences of the greatest interest and value, are yet, even in the case of such chapters as xiv., xxxiv., and xxxvi., so obscured by legendary admixture and uncertain tradition that, without further light thrown upon the narrative from extraneous sources, it is hardly possible to do more than reconstruct general pictures of life in Palestine at this time. Fortunately, extraneous sources for this early period do not entirely fail us; and they have recently been enriched by a most important discovery in a quarter entirely unlooked for.

    Abbreviations & Conventions i ABBREVIATIONS & CONVENTIONAL MARKINGS [Should we list our grammatical abbreviations here, or just state that we follow the conventions of the CHD in these matters?] † Forms marked by a following † are æi-conjugation intrusions in paradigms of mi-verbs. * preceding a form indicates it is hypothetical or reconstructed. Ð in Hittite transcriptions indicates a boundary before a clitic element. Unlike the verbs in the Semitic languages, Hittite verbs with third person subjects are gender indifferent. To avoid ugly renderings like “he/she/it …-s” in our translations we have arbitrarily used the masculine pronoun “he”. i 1. Orthography & Phonology 1 CHAPTER 1 ORTHOGRAPHY AND PHONOLOGY The Cuneiform Writing System of the Hittites 1.1 The Hittite texts were written by professional scribes on clay tablets, impressed with a stylus and then dried in the sun. The writing system derives ultimately from Lower Mesopotamia, present-day Iraq, where it was devised by the Sumerians and adapted centuries later for the writing of the semitic Akkadian language. In addition to cuneiform writing on clay tablets the Hittites occasionally made use of a hieroglyphic script (Plate 2). During the earliest phase of their kingdom’s history, called the Old Hittite period, the kings used this hieroglyphic script to inscribe their names and titles on stamp and cylinder seals. Much later, during the so-called New Hittite (or Empire) period, kings began to use this system for carving royal inscriptions on cliffs or stelae. The language in which these latter inscriptions were composed was Luwian, a tongue closely related to Hittite. 1.2 Before the advent of the Old Assyrian merchant colonies at the beginning of the second millennium B.C.
