SUMERIAN FLOOD STORY CUNEIFORM TABLET museum replica
Earliest Historical Record of the Great Flood Sumerian Flood Story Cuneiform Tablet Stone tablet. Quartzite-limestone composite, 4 x 5 inches( 10 x 12.5 cm) x half inch thickness( 10 cm) With description. Museum replica Sumerian Flood Story. Ca. 1740 B.C. Old Babylonian period. Mesopotamia, Ur. Inscription in Old Sumerian Cuneiform. Discovered in the late 1920s by renowned British archaeologist C. Leonard Woolley. The tablet was recovered from beneath the ancient site of Ur in thick layers of water-laid clay dated to several thousand years old. Woolley believed the tablet to be direct evidence of the Great Flood recorded in both Mesopotamian narratives and the Bible The earliest account of the Great Flood ever found. The tablet relates how the Sumerian god Enlil attempts to destroy humanity by means of a watery deluge. The clamour and pride ... moreof humanity proves too much for Enlil, who decides to put an end to it. The lesser gods and goddesses lament this decision and the crafty earth god Enki takes action and reveals the coming disaster to a king named Ziusudra whom he instructs to build a boat to save his family. And thus Ziusudra survives the flood: All the destructive winds and gales were present, The storm swept over the capitals. After the storm had swept the country for seven days and seven nights. And the destructive wind had rocked the huge boat in the high water, The Sun came out. Illuminating the earth and the sky. Ziusudra made an opening in the huge boat, And the Sun with its rays entered the huge boat. The king Ziusudra Prostrated himself before the sun god; The king slaughtered a large number of bulls and sheep. Ziusudra saves the seed of humanity and in return is given the gift of immortality and settled in far-off Dilmun. No longer a Biblical myth. 21st century scientists have determined the sudden collapse of the Canadian Ice Sheet around 6,000 BC single-handedly responsible for the historical Great

Quartzite-limestone composite, 10 x 4 inches(26 x 9.5 cm) half inch thickness(15 mm) inscription across both sides. With description sheet. Replica authentic Easter Island Rongo Rongo tablet from the museum collection of the late Thor Heyerdahl. a"Tangata Manu" Tablet which records Rapa Nui's traditional Legend of the Bird Man. THE RONGO-RONGO ENIGMA The lost language of Rongo-Rongo has remained a mystery since its discovery. For over a hundred years controversy has raged over the meaning and source of its enigmatic characters. According to legend. The ancient ancestor Hoto Matua brought 67 Rongo-Rongo tablets with him containing traditions, genealogical information and other important records of the past. He was said to be accompanied ... moreby learned men who knew the art of writing and reciting the ancient inscriptions. The writing was usually inscribed on shaped wooden boards in neat rows about a centimetre high. Alternate lines are written upside down. With the end of one line running into the beginning of the next– a system known as boustrophedon, as the ox ploughs. This means that, starting from the bottom left-hand corner of a tablet, the writing proceeds from left to right but at the end of each line the tablet has to be turned around. The glyphs consist of about 120 basic elements. Human figures in various positions, birds, animals, plants, celestial objects and geometrical shapes. These are combined to form between 1500 and 2000 compound signs and are believed to represent a rudimentary phonetic writing system. Many of the motifs are also found in the island’s rock art. Thor Heyerdahl drew particular attention to several South American scripts. Particularly the pictographic writing of the Cuna Indians of Panama and northwest Colombia, who recorded songs by painting on wooden tablets. Some of the symbols are identical with those of Easter Island and the script was written in boustrophedon style. The wri

The lesser gods and goddesses lament this calamitous decision and the crafty earth god Enki takes it upon himself to reveal the coming disaster to a ruler named Ziusudra whom he instructs to build a boat to save"the seed of humanity" along with a selection of animals. And thus Ziusudra survives to tell the tale: All the destructive winds and gales were present, The storm swept over the capitals. After the storm had swept the country for seven days and seven nights. And the destructive wind had rocked the huge boat in the high water, The Sun came out. Illuminating the earth and the sky. Ziusudra made an opening in the huge boat, And the Sun with its rays entered the huge boat. The king Ziusudra Prostrated himself before the sun god; The king slaughtered a large number of bulls and sheep. Ziusudra saves humanity and in return is given the gift of immortality and settled in far-off Dilmun. No longer a Biblical myth.

Quartzite-limestone composite, 1.25 inches square(30 mm) one inch(25 mm) on black acrylic mount, with display stand& back-label ID. Museum replicas from the Indus Seals Collection of Pakistan's Islamabad Museum. classic Indus Valley seals recovered from Mohenjo Daro during the 1930's. As was the custom. Indus Valley pictographs record a proverb of the day in a language which remained undeciphered until the turn of the century. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND The ancient Veddic civilization of the Indus Valley at Mohenjo-Daro and Harappa arose in western India contemporary with Sumeria around 3000 BC and flourished until tectonic changes caused the great river to change direction around 1500 BC. Indus seals were used differently to the text-and-seal administration ... moreof Mesopotamia and generally assumed the form of an amulet with a cryptic saying or religious proverb. The evidence of wear and abrasion shows their main use was visual identification and giving legitimacy to the owner rather than making numerous impressions. The language is considered a close relative of the mysterious pictographic script used by the Elamites and was finally deciphered by the aging German linguist Kurt Schildman in the late 1990’s. Who related it to the surviving pictographic scripts of East Asia and Korea and found it displayed a language style remarkably similar to Old Persian. Schildman’s students have now published translations of many of the seals revealing the Indus Valley’s true Veddic origins. SAFE& SECURE PAYPAL PARCELS ARE SHIPPED FLAT RATE AIRMAIL FROM AUSTRALIA.
