    "A lion grabbed a wild boar and roared: 'until now your flesh had not filled my mouth, but your squeals have made my ears deaf!'" My favourite bit about this proverb is that the verb I've translated as roar is written here 'ra-ra-ra!'

    If you want to read some early literature from Mesopotamia check out the Sources of Early Akkadian Literature project (), recently updated with lots of new texts. It gives us a window into early versions of well-known stories like Gilgamesh!

    The original list started 'tu ta ti, nu na ni, bu ba bi, lu la li', but I'm using a different order (still with the 'u a i' pattern) that makes more sense to my non-Babylonian mind!

    Martin Worthington's interpretation of the warning to man in the Flood Story as "fake news" made the papers yesterday. Idea is that Ea seems to be promising one thing, but really means s/t else - -

    THREAD: How did Ugaritic scribes mess around when bored? KTU 5.9 (RS 16.265) is a most curious tablet. On one side it shows an Ugaritic abecedary, on the other side (pictured below), what appears to be a mock letter.

    THREAD: How did Judas Iscariot die? In a recent debate with at 43-52 minutes we fell to discussing the mode of Judas’s death. Bart said that the accounts of Matthew & Acts were irreconcilable (& also reconcilable if you tried hard enough).

    Not that anyone asked, but 4,000-year-old Babylonian letters show complete mastery of the art of throwing shade. From a letter from Sîn-magir to Sîn-eribam: "Good behaviour it is, that I write to you again and again, and you pay no attention to me."

    yesterday someone posted a video debunking a YouTube post about "Sumerian astronomy". Can't find it now, but I wanted to comment on something that was said about tablet collections in museums. I'll leave the ancient aliens to the debunking video.

    ur sa6-ga ur-tur-šè in-ku4 This Sumerian proverb reads, “A dog which is played with turns into a puppy.” Another possible (more literal) translation of this proverb is, “A sweet dog has become a puppy again.”

    Or MAYBE Gilgamesh was playing Test Cricket, and his oppression took the form of a devastatingly long innings from which no one could get Gilgamesh out?
