But surprise! This is not just about Mesopotamia. A similar "cradle" is discussed and compared, from across the globe -- in Peru! Professor Key began collecting materials for a study of the languages spoken today in the regions of Iraq, and the Andes. Both have ancient civilizations extended along the Fertile Crescents, and she found Words common to both -- persisting in spite of distances and time. The Sumerian/Babylonian cuneiform Chaldean Iraqi communications and the Aymara Quechua regions, with the excavations around Chiquitos and the Island of the Sun in Lago Titicaca. Connections. Intense and blood-tainted religions, King-Priest hierarchies, and boats made from reeds bound together.
The materials are drawn from "specialists" from entirely different areas of the world who rarely meet and discuss the actual similarities, which are abundant. Linguistics, of course, operates at the cutting edge.
Here are some of her notes, materials, digested, specified, or quoted as indicated:
"Tradition has it that the language spoken in the Fertile Crescent was Sumerian. Information about Sumerian, is of course, limited, as the language has not been spoken for well over 5000 years. Yet, scholars can identify some features of the language. Noah Kran is one of the academics to do so. His __ reviews a Maria Haug in the States. It is possible that revenant [words] may remain intact for several thousand years. As I have shown in identifying Hittite in what is now __.
" other works __ and Japan should be considered here. One of the more extensive collections is the compilation of Sjoberg. It appears to be generally accepted. E.g. Blasik.
"January 5, 2003" Belshazzar. Listen to the news. Belshazzar, Neb's son. Daniel 5:27-28. Jeremiah.
Clipping: Bollvia: Archeology. The pre-Columbian history of Bolivia has been shaped by two imperial empires--the Tiwanaku and the Inca. [need to explore/ excavate ] sites such as Tiwanaku, Inkallajta, Chiripa, Lukurmata. On Lake Titicaca, the sacred Isla Sol, where the Inca believed the sun gods and civilization was born. {?} Clark Erickson leads excavations.
