  • Some Earliest Traces of the Aryan: Evidence from the 4
    Some Earliest Traces of the Aryan: th rd Evidence from the 4 and 3 Millennium B.C. By: Jahanshah Derakhshani ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 0. The Background The early presence of the Aryans in the Near East is the topic of the research I have undertaken using the positive material and linguistic evidence, part of which has already been published, while the other, the main body of the work (Main Work) will [1] be published as an extensive version. In these works, and based on linguistic evidences, such as Aryan loanwords, ethnonyms and toponyms extant in the archaic Near Eastern texts as well as due to the absolute lack of loanwords from the so-called pre-Iranian native languages in the Old Iranian dialects, the conventional theory of the late migration of Aryans into the Iranian Highland has been refuted as “strongly disproved”. Based on the same evidence, a pre-Sumerian presence of the Aryans in Mesopotamia has been substantiated (see Aryans 5.4.1.10; 6.1.10). The present article is dealing with some earliest linguistic traces of the Aryan in the archaic Near Eastern languages such as in Sumerian, Akkadian, Elamite and Egyptian. 1. Methodology While most languages and dialects of the ancient peoples are unknown, as they are not attested or have died out, it is impossible to speak about an exact scientific methodology of the investigation of ancient words and names. Alone in the case of the Eastern Aryan, some scholars suppose that, beside Iranian and Indian, there existed a third Indo-Iranian language not attested later, the homeland of which is assumed to be v in the lower Oxus Valley, in ancient X ~razm (see Aryans 2.4.2).

  • Edward Lipiński
    ROCZNIK ORIENTALISTYCZNY, T. LXIX, Z. 1, 2016, (s. 125–141) EDWARD LIPIŃSKI Hurrians and Their Gods in Canaan Abstract The first appearance of Hurrians and of personages bearing Indo-Aryan names in city- states of ancient Canaan can be dated to the late 16th century B.C. and be related to the expansive influence of the Mittannian empire. Information is provided mainly by written material from Shechem, by the tablets from Taanach, and by the Amarna letters, thus by sources dating from a period when Canaan was dominated by Egypt. Traces of this Hurrian presence are recognizable in Jerusalem until the 10th century B.C. and the Hurrian goddess Šuwala, the Queen of the netherworld, continued her career through centuries in the Hebrew literature in which she appears under the name of Sheol. Also a vague souvenir of the Hurrians persisted, called Horites in the Bible and regarded as a pre-Israelite population of Canaan. A particular attention is paid in the article to some personal names, like Šuwardata, Abdi-Ḫeba or Pora-Ḫeba, the name of a ruler of Jerusalem in the 14th century, further to Ḫutiya and to Bat-Tešub, also in Jerusalem. Keywords: Hurrians, Indo-Aryans, Šuwardata, ARAD-Ḫeba, Šukri, Šmgr, Tlmy, Ḥty, Btšb‘, purame/pōra-, nata’a, ewri(ni/e), Šuwala/Sheol The very name used by the Egyptians for Canaan since the early 15th century B.C. was the Land of Ḫor (Ḫ3r)1, a word which at first had an ethnic connotation, designating the Hurrians, but was later used geographically and survived in the “Horites” of the Bible, wrongly listed among the native pre-Israelite populations of Canaan.
