Saggs. DESCRIPTION: Hardback with Dust Jacket: 192 pages. Publisher: University of Oklahoma Press; 1995) ISBN: 0806127651. Babylon stands with Athens and Rome as a cultural ancestor of western civilization. It was founded by the people of ancient Mesopotamia. Who settled in the fertile crescent between the Tigris and the Euphrates rivers before the fourth millennium B.C. Some of the earliest experiments in agriculture and irrigation, the invention of writing, the birth of mathematics and the development of urban life all began there. Biblical associations are also numerous, from Nineveh to the Tower of Babel and the Flood. In"Babylonians" H. W. F. Saggs describes the ebb and flow in the successive fortunes of the Sumerians, Akkadians, Amorites, and Babylonians who flourished in this region. Using evidence from pottery, cuneiform tablets, cylinder seals, early architecture and metallurgy, he illuminates the myths, religion, languages, trade, politics, and warfare, as well as the legacy, of the Babylonians and their predecessors. During the twentieth century. Collaboration by archaeologists from many nations has greatly increased the range of archaeological evidence, while work by linguists has gradually unlocked the secrets of the thousands of clay tablets recovered from the area. Today the historical record for some periods of ancient Mesopotamia is substantially better than for some centuries of Europe in the Christian era. Gaps and uncertainties remain, but Babylonians conveys a rich and fascinating picture of the development of this remarkable civilization from before the beginning of the third millennium B.C.

Sumerian Cuneiform Tablet.Nippur.Babylonian.Medical Text.Museum Replica.
A Cuneiform slate tablet originally from Nippur in Babylonian.2100 BC. I think this is a reproduction of the famous Penn Museum Tablet which is worlds oldest medical text. The pharmacopoeia is believed to be the first known documentation of aspirin.Aloe vera and opium,demonstrating a sophistication and level of medical knowledge equivalent to that in 17th Century England. It appears to be made of some type of slate.It is 9.5cms wide and 15.5cms long.Weight 231 grams. The tablet has a number of small chips down one side and a chip to a corner. I think it has been cut in too at sometime there should be writing on both sides of tablet. Would make an interesting teaching aid.

5 Old Babylonian Terracotta Cuneiform Tablet (Hellenistic, Roman, Byzantine)
5 Cuneiform tablats from olld coll. in Israel(1960-1980) 1700-2000 B.C. They were examined by Marcel Sigrist and were 100% authentic. They will send only after receiving confirmation of the sale and export of IAA. The oldest known written language. Cuneiform, first used by the ancient peoples of the Near East over 5000 years ago, is composed of a series of wedge-shaped incisions made with a sharpened reed stylus. This script was adopted by all the major civilizations of Mesopotamia for recording their distinct languages, including the Sumerians, Akkadians, Assyrians, and Babylonians. Clay tablets were the preferred media for everyday writing because they could either be easily recycled or, if a permanent record was required, fired in a kiln and preserved. The earliest recorded inscriptions are not myths of histories, but rather banal economic ... moretransactions and accounting documents. Later, one of the most famous written works of the ancient world, Hammurabi’s code, was recorded in the cuneiform script. While these marks may appear obscure and mysterious to our eyes, scholars have made much progress in deciphering cuneiform after discovering inscriptions on the Behistun Rock, a cliff in western Iran. Much like the Rosetta Stone, the Behistun Inscription contained the same text written in three different languages(Persian, Babylonian, and Elamite) all of which utilized the cuneiform system of writing. Due to the resemblance of these languages to modern ones, scholars were able to crack to code. This terracotta tablet reveals just how intricate a system of writing cuneiform was. In the hands of a talented scribe. A remarkable amount of information could be squeezed into a relatively small space and yet still remain legible. Both the front and back of this tablet have been written on, containing a total of fourteen lines of text. Like most tablets that survive, the text relates to administrative matters. Inscribed during to the reign of Ammi-ditana, King of Babylon, this fascinating tablet is precisely dated to the

Ancient Near Eastern Tablet with Cuneiform scripture (800-1000 BC)
A Near Eastern Tablet with Cuneiform Scriptures. Circa 800-1000 BC. Measuring 4 1/8“ x 2 3/8” x ¾” Approx. This Piece showcase an excellent example of ancient writing(Not translated) I bought this piece in 2011 from a Brazilian archaeologist. Historian and Egyptologist, who is the person responsible for the construction of the Neo-Mamluk Complex in Rio: Al-Sultaniyya Cultural Complex and the Archaeological Museum of Mankind. Per the Professor description. This piece is in good and stable condition, but partially eroded in some parts of its surface and borders with small chips, and very worn, certainly due to the age/atmospheric conditions. This piece belonged to a private collector in Rio de Janeiro. As part of a collection of items purchase in Damascus in 1923 and brought to Rome afterwards, and to RJ in the 1950’s. Cuneiform is known ... moreas one of the earliest system of writing. Is a system of writing first developed by the ancient Sumerians of Mesopotamia circa 3500-3000 BCE. It is considered the most significant among the many cultural contributions of the Sumerians. The name comes from the Latin word cuneus for'wedge' owing to the wedge-shaped style of writing. In cuneiform. A carefully cut writing implement known as a stylus is pressed into soft clay to produce wedge-like impressions that represent word-signs(pictographs) All of the great Mesopotamian civilizations used cuneiform(the Sumerians, Akkadians, Babylonians, Elamites, Assyrians, Hurrians and others) until it was abandoned in favor of the alphabetic script in the course of the Roman era. I am a collector with over 20 years of experience in the hobby; I have acquired many interested pieces around the world. Anywhere from private collections to highly known auction houses. But now I have reached the time on my life on which I have to start setting up my retirement. So I have taken the tough decision to depart with some pieces of my collection and let a new owner enjoy them as I did. During the next couple of moths I will be placing more of m
