Description | |
BABYLONIAN / ( Text translated by Google) / Sumerian myth in the flood well before that of the Bible, the god Shamash appears in a boat and back light after the storm! As Shamash the rising sun, whose ceiling is the sky that contains the bark of the sun! We know from "The Epic of Gilgamesh" Shamash the boatman called Urshanabi (half man, half-boat). The snake boat is an ally against the hardships facing the God to defeat the forces opposed to the light! In the poem "A Babylonian epic", it is expressly said that no one outside of Shamash, can not cross the sea! On the deck of the boat, the anthropomorphic with for legs was initially a sad old bearded and not a woman. When the many sacred attributes above the characters, their meaning remains mysterious, except for the Philhelm's monogram (which was added by your iconoclastic artist) under the cuneiform inscription, whose literal translation is "Seal of Bel- Mushallim , which removes the seal, risk losing the protection of Shamash!

Babylonia was an ancient cultural region in central-southern Mesopotamia (present-day Iraq), with Babylon as its capital. Babylonia adopted the written Semitic Akkadian language for official use, and retained the Sumerian language for religious use, which by that time was no longer a spoken language. The Akkadian and Sumerian traditions played a major role in later Babylonian culture, and the region would remain an important cultural center, even under outside rule, throughout the Bronze Age and the Early Iron Age. / WIKIPEDIA |
