  • Who Is the Daughter of Babylon?
    WHO IS THE DAUGHTER OF BABYLON? ● Babylon was initially a minor city-state, and controlled little surrounding territory; its first four Amorite rulers did not assume the title of king. The older and more powerful states of Assyria, Elam, Isin, and Larsa overshadowed Babylon until it became the capital of Hammurabi's short-lived empire about a century later. Hammurabi (r. 1792–1750 BC) is famous for codifying the laws of Babylonia into the Code of Hammurabi. He conquered all of the cities and city states of southern Mesopotamia, including Isin, Larsa, Ur, Uruk, Nippur, Lagash, Eridu, Kish, Adab, Eshnunna, Akshak, Akkad, Shuruppak, Bad-tibira, Sippar, and Girsu, coalescing them into one kingdom, ruled from Babylon. Hammurabi also invaded and conquered Elam to the east, and the kingdoms of Mari and Ebla to the northwest. After a protracted struggle with the powerful Assyrian king Ishme-Dagan of the Old Assyrian Empire, he forced his successor to pay tribute late in his reign, spreading Babylonian power to Assyria's Hattian and Hurrian colonies in Asia Minor. After the reign of Hammurabi, the whole of southern Mesopotamia came to be known as Babylonia, whereas the north had already coalesced centuries before into Assyria. From this time, Babylon supplanted Nippur and Eridu as the major religious centers of southern Mesopotamia. Hammurabi's empire destabilized after his death. Assyrians defeated and drove out the Babylonians and Amorites. The far south of Mesopotamia broke away, forming the native Sealand Dynasty, and the Elamites appropriated territory in eastern Mesopotamia. The Amorite dynasty remained in power in Babylon, which again became a small city-state.

  • Ancient Foundations Unit Two CA * the Babylonians
    Marshall High School Mr. Cline Western Civilization I: Ancient Foundations Unit Two CA * The Babylonians • By the mid-20th century BC, Sumerian Civilization had already been through a lot: • It had been co opted by the Akkadians • It had been conquered by the Guti. • It had thrown off its invaders, and started a new Sumerian Empire with Ur as its capitol • Then, in 1950 BC, a new group of people entered the scene, the Elamites, a fierce people living to the southeast of Mesopotamia. • The Elamites, like the Guti before them, seem to have been more interested in pillaging than empire building. • It would take another thousand years before the Elamites would mount their own bid for control of the empire. • Nevertheless, the Elamites destroyed the power structure that held the Sumerian empire together. • After a thousand years, the Sumero-Akkadian empire was dead at last. * The Babylonians • Yet the idea of a united Mesopotamian empire lived on as new peoples tried their hand at imperialism. • With the break down of the empire at the hands of the Elamites, a new people, the Amorites, came to conquer much of southern Mesopotamia, including an important religious center called Babylon. • Like the Sumerians before them, the Amorites began by creating minor kingdoms or city states, which vied with one another for power. • The earliest of these were two cities, Isin and Larsa. • For about 200 years, these two were rivals and struggled with each other for supremacy. • Then around 1830, the city of Babylon took advantage of the distraction of these two power players and established itself as an independent kingdom.

  • CHAPTER 2 What Is an Amorite?
    Cover Page The handle http://hdl.handle.net/1887/25842 holds various files of this Leiden University dissertation. Author: Boer, Rients de Title: Amorites in the Early Old Babylonian Period Issue Date: 2014-05-28 CHAPTER 2 What is an Amorite? 2.1 The Amorites from the Early Dynastic to the Old Babylonian period 2.1.1 Introduction In the cuneiform script the word for ‘Amorite’ is mostly written in Sumerian as MAR .TU and sometimes spelled syllabically in Akkadian as a-mu-ur-ru-(ú) = amurru (m). 4 These words also indicate ‘The West’ on the compass. 5 In the lit- erature the overlap of these terms is sometimes confusing, because people indicated as MAR .TU could also come from the area to the north east of Baby- lonia, the Jebel Hamrin. The word lacks a convincing etymology. 6 The study of the Amorites goes back a long time because they are already mentioned in the Bible. 7 4 For the lexical occurrences (and the ‘lexical confusion’ with the term Tidnum/Dita- nu), see Marchesi 2006:8 n. 20,:9 n. 23, the CAD A/2:93-94 and most recently Hrůša 2010:471-472. See Streck 2000:26-29 for a discussion of the term MAR .TU , with the com- ments by Charpin 2005/2006:283-284. See Michalowski 2011:106 for proof from the Ur III period that MAR .TU = a-mu-ru-um . 5 Despite this fact it is known that people with Amorite names lived in the area of the Persian Gulf thanks to the excavations at the island of Failaka of the coast of Kuwait.
