  • DAHL, J. — the Ruling Family of Ur III Umma. a Prosopo
    93248_BIOR_2010-1-2_01 08-06-2010 17:26 Pagina 56 107 BIBLIOTHECA ORIENTALIS LXVII N° 1-2, januari-april 2010 108 by the abundant documentation from Umma,1) and on the other hand by the fact that starting in the year Sulgi 33, the majority of the strategic offices were in the hands of one family that uninterruptedly controlled both provincial and temple households. Furthermore, Dahl proposes a model for understanding the genealogy of the royal family and other Ur III elite families, for which comparable data is not available. In chapters 1 and 2, after a brief introduction to the orga- nization of the Ur III state,2) the author describes the patterns of hereditary succession: lineal, when power is passed from generation to generation, versus non-lineal, or lateral, when power is passed within the same generation. Lineal succes- sion can be matrilineal or patrilineal, the latter can be further divided into succession by primogeniture and seniority. Dahl discusses the historicity of the so-called Sumerian King List and he questions whether the prevailing Mesopotamian sys- tem of succession, and in particular that adopted by the Third Dynasty of Ur, was strictly patrilineal primogeniture. Although all of the dynasties following the end of the Ur III reign adopted a lineal primogeniture pattern of succession, Dahl tentatively suggests that a system of seniority prevailed throughout the third millennium (p. 11). In chapter 3 Dahl provides an updated picture of the House of Ur-Namma, which lasted, according to Dahl, three gener- ations, Amar-Suen, Su-Suen and Ibbi-Suen possibly all being sons of Sulgi.

    LA PRESENCIA GRIEGA EN EL MEDIO ORIENTE: SUS CONSECUENCIAS POLÍTICAS Y CULTURALES A presença grega no Oriente Médio: suas conseqüências políticas e culturais The greek presence in the Middle East: its political and cultural consequences Arminda Lozano* RESUMO O presente trabalho tem por objetivo principal analisar as consequencias políticas e culturais da herança legada pela conquista realizada por Alexandre Magno nos territórios orientais do Império Aquemênida, especialmente aquelas relacionadas a tradição grega e levadas pelos macedônios. Palavras-chave: tradição helenística, Alexandre Magno, monarquias helenísticas. ABSTRACT The main goal of the present work is to analyze the political and cultural consequences of the heritage of Alexander the Great’s conquest in the eastern territories of the Achaemenid Empire, especially those related to the Greek traditions and those carried on by the Macedonians. Key-words: Helenistic tradition, Alexander the Great, Helenistic monarchies. Ciertamente no es fácil seguir las huellas de los grupos de griegos residentes en distintas áreas del Medio Oriente en la Antigüedad, porque, también para los propios historiadores de aquella época, se trataba de un ámbito marginal, alejadas como estaban de los principales centros de interés histórico. Sin embargo, la panorámica que hoy puede vislumbrarse, trabajosamente reconstruida con los datos aportados por las fuentes antiguas, enriquecidos y ampliados gracias a la ayuda de la Arqueología, conforma uno de los capítulos * Doctora en Historia Antigua – Universidad de Salamanca.

  • Chastised Rulers in the Ancient Near East
    Chastised Rulers in the Ancient Near East Dissertation Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree doctor of philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By J. H. Price, M.A., B.A. Graduate Program in Near Eastern Languages and Cultures The Ohio State University 2015 Dissertation Committee: Samuel A. Meier, Advisor Daniel Frank Carolina López-Ruiz Bill T. Arnold Copyright by J. H. Price 2015 Abstract In the ancient world, kings were a common subject of literary activity, as they played significant social, economic, and religious roles in the ancient Near East. Unsurprisingly, the praiseworthy deeds of kings were often memorialized in ancient literature. However, in some texts kings were remembered for criminal acts that brought punishment from the god(s). From these documents, which date from the second to the first millennium BCE, we learn that royal acts of sacrilege were believed to have altered the fate of the offending king, his people, or his nation. These chastised rulers are the subject of this this dissertation. In the pages that follow, the violations committed by these rulers are collected, explained, and compared, as are the divine punishments that resulted from royal sacrilege. Though attestations are concentrated in the Hebrew Bible and Mesopotamian literature, the very fact that the chastised ruler type also surfaces in Ugaritic, Hittite, and Northwest Semitic texts suggests that the concept was an integral part of ancient near eastern kingship ideologies. Thus, this dissertation will also explain the relationship between kings and gods and the unifying aspect of kingship that gave rise to the chastised ruler concept across the ancient Near East.

  • THE COURT of the PALMS: a FUNCTIONAL INTERPRETATION of the Marl PALACE
    THE COURT OF THE PALMS: A FUNCTIONAL INTERPRETATION OF THE MARl PALACE UNDENA PUBLICATIONS MALIBU 1978 PREFACE In this work, I attempt to show the importance of studying together the various clements of man's remains in the archaeological record. This is particularly true in historical archaeology and specifically in urban architecture. The method used here aims at integrating cuneiform sources, art objects, ar­ tifacts and installations within their architectural context. Other archaeological analyses, both quanti­ tative and qualitative, were also given full consideration. The written evidence is especially important in verifying the function of some room-types. The reader will see the richness of information available in texts, which can help the archaeologist understand functional and aesthetic architecture. IndeeJ, this research was originally stimulated by some written documents which contained architectural re­ ferences. The palace of Zimrilim of Mari has been selected as a case study for this method of investigation be­ cause of its state of preservation, the richness of its cultural materials and the large number of publi­ cations dealing with the site. This palace is ideal for functional interpretation. In preparing this volume. I received advicl' and many excellent suggestions from friends and colleagues, to whom lowe a special debt of gratitude. In particular, I would like to express my thanks to Mr. Ron Glaeseman, who first brought to my attention the architectural references in the Mari tablets, and helpl~J me in collecting those texts. I am also pleased that Mr. Glaeseman has added an appenJix to this volume. in which he discusses further textual evidence on the papiibum at Mari.
