well.. from one discourse full hole to another diversion.do these cortexil stone masons ever stop preening themselves in a law societal rear view mirror?.. texting for the priveledged?

A lot of Fuddy Duddy Old professor charm and garble with loud woman laughing at every chance they can and not enough emphasis on facts or attention to the Anunnaki and the significance of the Sumerians and their text.

Irving Finkel what a legend he is. And for a historian very very funny in his dotage. Brilliant brilliant man!!

Wasn't Mr Finkel the guy who missed the miami dolphins field goal kick, went crazy and became a woman, then got offended when a dolphin became the miami dolphins mascot and trained to kick a field goal? I'm sure I saw it in a documentary once.

It is utterly important to acknowledge that all the bible does is collect stories others have written and told way before! And not in an accurate way……….

Old written texts will never prove to me that any God exists now or ever. People of olden days were superstitious and everything that happened was either Gods doing or some Gods doing. BUT in reality it was neither but telling the people it was is how religion became about subjugating the masses making them fear some God and of course a priest of some sort was always needed to interpret that said God. It is all horseShat and superstition. Nothing more nothing less. Religion preys on the minds of the weak and less intelligent of our species. They want a God to exist and so they created one. When man lived in caves there was no God or preachers around because they didn't exist. Christianity is only 2k years old and the bible was written by man not a golden entity.

Dude thinks to be a semitic son of Noah

The 1209 BC Egyptian stele referencing Israel: could the name "Israel" precede the Hebrew use of the term? In other words, could the ancient Israelites have adopted the ancient, unrelated name of that land and made it their own? Put another way: what came first, Israel or the Israelites?

Here's an old joke that illustrates the problem of archeology in the Levant: "A true intellectual is someone who can listen to the William Tell Overture and never think of "The Lone Ranger."" A true archeologist in the Levant is someone who can do the work without ever thinking of the bible.

The greatest work of fiction ever written...

i find amasing that people try to extract more value from other anciant acounts than those from the bible. to me there was this very old true storys wich each people oraly transmited to the next generation. in this particulary story i found the bible acount more acurate and with more details.

"Had I Jubal's lyre! Had I Jubal's lyre!" I'm reminded of this joyous song in Handel's 1747 Oratorio "Joshua." In mythology Jubal was supposed to have invented the lyre - when he accidentally trod on the membranes of a dead tortoise on the beach and he noticed it made an interesting sound.

Fascinating! Thanks for the upload!

That was so brilliant. Informative and very funny

Passing notes in classes between students should be a bore in the Sumerian classroom. To write the note, go cook it unoticed, come back with the tablet, find a way to pass it without the teacher seeing and braking it... oh, the horror... the horror. One thing that favoured the monarch with this kind of writing is that no one could go to a city wall and write this stuff because where do you have public wet clay walls just waiting to be pressed? Nowhere!

Great lecture! And fascinating 3d Models, I Wish those existed for more Sites!

Dear Professor López-Ruiz, this video has changed my life. My whole outlook on everything that exists in this world, in fact even in the entire universe. I can never look at anything I know the same way ever again. This video represents emotions most humans could never comprehend. But I can. Thanks to this video I have been awakened to many things previously thought unimaginable. Thank you.

Meanwhile; in Kentucky....

Have you caught wind of VideoGPT yet? It's the game-changing tool that's revolutionizing video content.

Would be interesting to hear the role of slavery as described in Exodus and Lev. in the economy, culture,

What a great project. The next generation of Egyptologists will get a head start with all this.

I think in the context of Mesopotamia it would be more appropriate to speak of kuphars, not coracles.

Well, if you believe in that story EVERYONE is a descendant of Noah. ;)

Good ending. Lee1💙💙

Thank you

The hebrew is from akkadian Semitic

Some of the statements were breathtakingly naive... Edit: And someone needs to explain to these technological imbeciles who don't understand their microphone is on even if they are not talking that whispering and clicking with pens (?) is being caught by aforementioned microphones. Some parts are impossible to listen to. And that includes the beginner speaker and his ongoing Uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh.

Good sd far as I can tell on the history. Not good on current events - repeats US distortions

My new celebrity crush

Not BCE! It’s BC. We didn’t change the names of months or the days of the week to accommodate wokeness.

Very cool

😂 wounderfull that professor! I've never expected an "expert" to be that funny like a show-star, rather expected a dry boring and endless quouting of strange countings of the misterious past long forgotten.. What an experience! 😅 Wunderbar Dr. Finkelstein you are a gem!

Wise Man. God Bless You. Thank you for sharing🙏 You are an amazing teacher, hilarious too !

Fantastic historian and story teller. A thrill to listen to.

Nutty History brought me here and I'm grateful. I love UA-cam.

I love watching this talk - I keep coming back to watch it again :-)

He is pretty awesome! So does it maybe make sense that the middle east got hit by a meteor burning it to sand and the world flooded. Probably around 4000-5000 bc? Maybe earlier. And so very fascinating, however, the most interesting part is, and would be helpful to know. Who gave you that tablet. He knew the right man to go to. And I'm sure he knew exactly what was on it, and he must have been certain what it would do to the church. Moreover, he would also be in possession of other things of the sort. That's not something that just turns up. It was hidden until the right time. Even know the whole world will watch. Prior to now, the church would have killed anyone in possession of this and hidden it. Did the man even care about being paid? Did you ever see him again? Were the other things special. There's not many people who could read it like you in the world. Is it by chance it landed in your lap during a time when it could be exposed without fear of the church's repercussions? I can't imagine it will be long before the bones of Jesus Christ lands in someone's lap. Because someone has them, no need to dog it up. Like that tablet. Noone had to excavate it, noone had to pay the Egyptian government to dig, noone had to rob the iraqi royal treasure (well maybe they that's where it came from) but id argue someone just had it. And someone has all the others. Which will explain who we are, where we came from, and what happens when we die.

That has to be the BEST; most informative, and enjoyable lecture I have ever witnessed on this medium. Thank you Dr. Finkel, thank you very much. One tiny niggling thing? You said the resting place of the ark was in the mountains of Urartu... That it was not Mt. Ararat, and if memory serves me correctly both the Islamic and Judaic versions place the landing site as Mt. Chudi (Cudi? Judy?)... However, looking at your map; (the cuneiform one) the highlighted triangle was in the upper right corner, whereas Mt. Chudi should be top left or middle left. I wonder therefore if the landing site would have been either Mt. Sahand, or Mt. Sabalan (Savalan)... both of which were classed as Mountains of God and/or the protective Cherubim of the Garden of Eden! (Protection from the marauding barbarians from the east... (possibly Mongols)? So, what are your thoughts on the actual landing site depicted on the map. Great Lecture! John.

Terrific lecture. Especially the concurrence of the Sîn/Šamaš text within the western, Tayinat exemplar and Deuteronomy 28:26-33 is a superb piece of historical sleuthing. Could it be that, when King Joshua had the Deuteronomy produced in 625 BC, that he borrowed heavily from Assyrian and proto-Genesis texts (the rest of the Pentateuch was only compiled 200 years later, post Ezra). To do this he probably employed exiled Israelite scholars who had sought refuge in tiny Jerusalem and would have had access to the texts. They then interposed the name Jahweh for either the relevant Assyrian or Northern Israelite king or deity.

I love the opening of this; The history of the history. I love how clearly Dr. Jasnow's love and memory comes through. Thank you so much ^v^ ^v^ ^v^
