J. AUGUSTIN, GLUCKSTADT oi.uchicago.edu THE ASSYRIAN DICTIONARY VOLUME 5 G A. LEO OPPENHEIM, EDITOR-IN-CHARGE WITH THE ASSISTANCE OF ERICA REINER AND MICHAEL B. ROWTON RICHARD T. HALLOCK, EDITORIAL SECRETARY oi.uchicago.edu oi.uchicago.edu Foreword The present volume of the CAD follows in general the pattern established in Vol. 6 (H). Only in minor points such as the organization of the semantic section, and especially in the lay-out of the printed text, have certain simplifications and improvements been introduced which are meant to facilitate the use of the book. On p. 149ff. additions and corrections to Vol. 6 are listed and it is planned to continue this practice in the subsequent volumes of the CAD in order to list new words and important new references, as well as to correct mistakes made in previous volumes. The Supplement Volume will collect and republish alphabetically all that material. The Provisional List of Bibliographical Abbreviations has likewise been brought a jour. The same staff as in the preceding volume (Vol. 6, H) has collaborated on the present. Erica Reiner, however, has assumed a number of editorial duties in addition to her share of writing the articles. The efficient organization of the clerical work by Miss Elizabeth Bowman, Assistant to the Editor, has greatly expedited the progress of the work. Thanks are also due to Prof. W. G. Lambert, University of Toronto, who has read the manuscript and suggested a number of improvements. Chicago, Illinois, A. LEo OPPENHEIM July 15, 1956. oi.uchicago.edu oi.uchicago.edu Provisional List of Bibliographical Abbreviations The following list of text editions, periodicals, standard publications, etc., is meant to supplement the list of abbreviations contained in von Soden's Grundriss der akkadischen Grammatik p. xviiif. as well as those offered by the Archiv fur Orientforschung and the Zeitschrift fir Assyriologie. This provisional list will be kept a jour in the subsequent volumes of the CAD until, in Volume 1 (A), a complete list will be published with all bibliographical information.

The Minutes of the last Meeting were read and confirmed, and the following paper was read by the author :- THE RELIGIOUS IDEAS OF THE BABYLONIANS.t ~ By THEO. G. PINCHES. HE most extensive work upon the religion of the T Babylonians is Prof. Sayce's book, which forms the volume of the Hibbert Lectures for 1887 ; a voluminous work; and a monument of brilliant research. The learned author there quotes all the legends, from every source, connected .with Babylonian religion and mythology, and this book will always be indispensable to the student in that branch of Assyriology. I do not intend, however, to traverse the ground covered by Prof. Sayce, for a single lecture, such as this is, would be altogether inadequate for the purpose. I shall merely confine myself, therefore, to the points which have not been touched upon by others in this field, and I hope that I may be able to bring fot·ward something that may interest my audience and my readers.

  • Burn Your Way to Success Studies in the Mesopotamian Ritual And
    Burn your way to success Studies in the Mesopotamian Ritual and Incantation Series Šurpu by Francis James Michael Simons A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Classics, Ancient History and Archaeology School of History and Cultures College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham March 2017 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged.

Abstract The ritual and incantation series Šurpu ‘Burning’ is one of the most important sources for understanding religious and magical practice in the ancient Near East. The purpose of the ritual was to rid a sufferer of a divine curse which had been inflicted due to personal misconduct. The series is composed chiefly of the text of the incantations recited during the ceremony. These are supplemented by brief ritual instructions as well as a ritual tablet which details the ceremony in full. This thesis offers a comprehensive and radical reconstruction of the entire text, demonstrating the existence of a large, and previously unsuspected, lacuna in the published version. In addition, a single tablet, tablet IX, from the ten which comprise the series is fully edited, with partitur transliteration, eclectic and normalised text, translation, and a detailed line by line commentary.

  • The Fifty Names of Marduk.Pdf
    The Fifty names of Marduk What we find in the list of the names of Marduk, head of the Mesopotamian divine pantheon, as listed in the Enuma Elish (‘When on High’), is the name of each aspect of Marduk followed by a short description of the powers and properties which each name represents. Taken together, these descriptions of the aspects of Marduk provide a catalogue of divine qualities, and consequently, since the duty of the Mesopotamian king is to emulate the qualities of the gods, also provide a catalogue of the qualities required in the king. It isn't necessary to review all of the names for the purpose of this study - the first ten are reviewed, plus some later names in the list, and the colophon. The translation of the text is by E.A Speiser, from his: Enuma Elish, The Fifty Names of Marduk, (Tablet VIb – VII). What I'm interested in here is the underlying rationale for this collection of names, properties and attributes. It is well known that the divine pantheon in Mesopotamia was subject to local politics and changes in rulership and cultural hegemony, and I am not challenging that at all. However it was possible for properties and attributes to be reassigned, and transferred to other deities. And they were so reassigned. I'm interested in the properties and attributes of Marduk as they appear in the Enuma Elish, and what can be understood of the process by which the list was generated. Samuel Noah Kramer commented, with some puzzlement, on a Sumerian list of disparate things which were white, which I referred to earlier.

  • Enuma Elish ENUMA ELISH
    Enuma Elish ENUMA ELISH Tablet 1 When in the height heaven was not named, And the earth beneath did not yet bear a name, And the primeval Apsu, who begat them, And chaos, Tiamat, the mother of them both Their waters were mingled together, And no field was formed, no marsh was to be seen; When of the gods none had been called into being, And none bore a name, and no destinies were ordained; Then were created the gods in the midst of heaven, Lahmu and Lahamu were called into being ... Ages increased, ... Then Ansar and Kisar were created, and over them ... Long were the days, then there came forth ... Anu, their son, ... Ansar and Anu ... And the god Anu ... Nudimmud, whom his fathers, his begetters ... Abounding in all wisdom, ... He was exceeding strong ... He had no rival - Thus were established and were ... the great gods. But Tiamat and Apsu were still in confusion ... They were troubled and ... In disorder ... Apsu was not diminished in might ... And Tiamat roared ... She smote, and their deeds ... Their way was evil ... Then Apsu, the begetter of the great gods, Cried unto Mummu, his minister, and said unto him: "O Mummu, thou minister that rejoicest my spirit, Come, unto Tiamat let us go! So they went and before Tiamat they lay down, They consulted on a plan with regard to the gods, their sons. Apsu opened his mouth and spake, And unto Tiamat, the glistening one, he addressed the word: ... their way ... By day I can not rest, by night I can not lie down in peace.

  • (Collection SOLO 72), Éditions El-Viso, Paris 2019, 56 Pp
    ROCZNIK ORIENTALISTYCZNY, T. LXXIV, Z. 1, 2021, (s. 197–199) DOI 10.24425/ro.2021.137251 Recenzje / Reviews Hélène Le Meaux and Françoise Briquel Chatonnet, Le sarcophage d’Eshmunazor (Collection SOLO 72), Éditions El-Viso, Paris 2019, 56 pp. The anthropoid sarcophagus of Eshmunazor II, son of Tabnit I, kings of Sidon, was discovered in 1855 in the necropolis Magharat Ablūn, south-east of Saida (Sidon), and it is now in the Marengo crypt of the Louvre Museum. The booklet under review offers photographs and a study of the sarcophagus with its perfectly preserved Phoenician inscription. Its copy is presented according to the Corpus Inscriptionum Semiticarum I, pl. III; it is followed by a transliteration and a translation of this historically important text. The discovery of the anthropoid sarcophagus of Tabnit I in 1887 increased scholarly attention to Eshmunasor’s sarcophagus and its inscription, for it became clear that the death of the young king was unexpected and sudden. This explains why Tabnit was buried in a sarcophagus prepared for the Egyptian general Penptah, as indicated by the hieroglyphic epitaph, while his first and unique son Eshmunazor was born after Tabnit’s death. The most likely explanation is that Tabnit was killed or deadly wounded at the battle of Salamis in 480 B.C., where he commanded the Sidonian war ships belonging to Xerxes’ fleet. At first Xerxes was victorious everywhere, but his attack of the Greek fleet under unfavourable conditions at Salamis ended on September 28 in a disastrous defeat of the Persian fleet, composed largely of Phoenician war ships, the Sidonian fleet being the most important one.

Il est de plus en plus clair que ce modèle n’est pas apte à rendre compte de l’interaction entre ces deux groupes ethniques. Il convient de se défaire de l’idée de l’influence sur la périphérie et de chercher plutôt les signes des processus d’émulation qui ont lieu entre deux groupes équivalents culturellement et qui s’affrontent dans un territoire sans suprématie politique. Au cours du temps — environ 500 ans, entre 1100 et 600 av. J.-C. —, la situation politique change et avec elle les formes de l’interaction perceptibles au travers des différents traits culturels, illustrés par les objets découverts en fouille. De fait, on doit s’attendre à ce que ces objets reflètent différentes étapes d’émulation et deviennent potentiellement des hybrides, plus ou moins élaborés, ou des transferts plus ou moins profondément modifiés.
