The Forgotten Ancient Kingdom of Ebla

  • Spectacular things were happening in Mesopotamia in the period we call the Early Bronze Age, particularly in the southern part of it, commonly called Babylonia. It was here that the wealthy, sophisticated Sumerian civilization developed, its growth and prosperity greatly spurred by the invention of writing. A magnificent assortment of beautifully wrought items, like those unearthed from the so-called royal tombs of Ur and now on display in the British Museum, testifies to the high level of craftsmanship of the Sumerian civilization at its zenith.
    In the wake of the Sumerian Early Dynastic period ( 2900-2334 BC), there arose in southern Mesopotamia the first great empire in Near Eastern history-the Akkadian empire ( 2334-2193 BC) founded by Sargon, which at its peak extended through the whole of Mesopotamia, and north-westwards into south-eastern Anatolia. Early Bronze Age Mesopotamia’s archaeological remains and prolific tablet-finds provided rich and exciting fields of investigation for archaeologists, historians, and linguists alike.
    But across the Euphrates in Syria, the picture was much bleaker, so it seemed, if you happened to be any of these. Up until the 1960s, third millennium Syria was generally thought of as no more than ‘an illiterate backwater of small communities far removed from the great developments of civilization occurring in Mesopotamia and Egypt’. But there must have been more to it than this! And indeed, it was quite possible that the numerous unexplored mounds (tells) throughout the region did include remains of settlements of various kinds contemporary with the first great civilizations of Mesopotamia.

    Thanks for this nice documentary. It is about the civilizations that lived after the last flood, which occurred in the year 3644 BCE. Planet Earth is suffering a cycle of disasters caused by an approaching planet. Therefore, civilizations come and go in a cycle of seven. One of them is more educated and skilled at the end of their existence than we are today. They knew they would disappear because of the next recurring, so predictable, disaster. They built huge monuments like the Great Pyramid to tell us they existed. And they built survival sites like Machu Picchu high in the mountains to help a number of people and animals survive the coming flood. To learn much more about the cycle of recurring floods, the recreation of civilizations and its timeline and ancient high technology, read the eBook: "Planet 9 = Nibiru". You can read it nicely on any computer, tablet or smartphone. Search for: invisible nibiru 9

    The more I read watch and listen, the clearer it becomes that who, or whatever you people are, you are in the middle of your 'Study of Antiquity and the Middle Ages", which may mean you're in high school with a whim to cash in on the youtube influencer phenomenon.
    Well, you aren't ready. Try again after you get out of University.
    A smidge of constructive criticism is in order here. I'm being more polite than I should, my time is more valuable than I am demonstrating. I figured why not give these spunky kids a chance? Well, here's why. Presentation does matter in the interest of communicating facts effectively. The structure of what is presented, the order, or - randomness, makes it really hard to take anything away from watching this. The narrator can speak English to an effective degree, but pauses frequently enough to suggest he doesn't read it well, is what I'm left with. How everything else presented relates to other facts presented, or to anything else anywhere - entirely unclear. You're mixing past and present references rapidly, and show a number of times that you have no idea what "past tense" actually is.
    Holy - whatever - the post presentation commercial, by - oh - WHY DID I EVEN TRY TO WATCH THIS? Stick to ONLY selling t-shirts and coffee mugs! Oh.... NO! Your "backdrop"! Your "globes" and old Reader's Digest editions you got at the used book store! This is how we know the topic is "WORLD" and "HISTORY"?!!

    “The Amorite” appears among the list of the sons of Canaan, but elsewhere this term, always in the singular in the Hebrew text, is used collectively of the Canaanite tribe descended from the original Amorite. They were, therefore, a Hamitic race.
    The confusion--
    The evidence concerning the Amurru, however, does not appear to warrant the strong conclusions that are advanced as to their positive identification with the Biblical Amorites. Amurru in the ancient cuneiform texts basically meant “west” as referring to the region W of Mesopotamia.
    A. H. Sayce, in The International Standard Bible Encyclopedia, says that the name Amurru is “a purely geographical indication of their immediate origins, from the perspective of Mesopotamia, and conveys no information about their ethnic composition or their real name.” (Edited by G. W. Bromiley, 1979, Vol. 1, p. 113)
    While Mari, an ancient city on the Euphrates in northern Mesopotamia, is referred to by modern secular historians as a center of the expansion of the Amurru into Mesopotamia, the thousands of tablets recovered there were almost all in the Semitic Akkadian (Assyro-Babylonian) language, with some names of West Semitic origin.
    As noted, however, the Biblical Amorites were Hamitic, not Semitic, and while the adoption of a Semitic tongue by some branch of them is not an impossibility, it is equally possible that the early Amurru were simply “westerners” from among the Semitic peoples living to the W of Babylonia.
    Professor John Bright in A History of Israel (1981, p. 49) says: “For some centuries [of the late third millennium and early second millennium B.C.E.] the people of northwestern Mesopotamia and northern Syria had been referred to in cuneiform texts as Amurru, i.e., ‘Westerners.’ This became, apparently, a general term applying to speakers of various Northwest-Semitic dialects found in the area including, in all probability, those strains from which later sprang both Hebrews and Arameans.”
    The Amurru were tent dwellers and of the aryan race not dark skinned as Cushite descendants of Ham who lived in round houses and raised bulls, cows, cattle among sheep and goats penned. And wrote and spoke in Semetic Text had to be Amurru not Amorite.
    ----Conclusion----
    Modern Scholars have them grossly named as Amorite wrong and admit to it when stating they were a Semetic People.

      Agreed, Mara.

Sadam called Napolean and asked him to go halves with him.” Is that anachronistic enough for even the “woke” to notice?
