Cradles of Civ 1.5: Sargon of Akkad

[RidiculouslyLuis]

Iraq is sure enriched with thousands of years of history.

[faraon2012]

i say, $umerian$ $nake..????i am king* $argon; in the new babylon..2012

[Yogonful]

I thought they were called Cuneiform

[tz88ss32vb]

The Assyrians, Babylonians, Parthians, India-Aryan, Greco-Romans, Israelites, Medes-Persia, Egyptians, as in Shem, Ham and Japheth were all aryan-White European as the Shemitics are we white aryans to this day! That's fact!!

[eflwinnie]

@tz88ss32vb interesting

[goran21715]

@tz88ss32vb The majority of Europe speaks an Indo-European language that appears to have its roots in a Proto-Language that is believed to have originated between the Caucasus Mountains &ancient Mesopotamia including Zagros-Turus plateauin.Caucasian"race of people" is an invention in1795 by J.F.Blumenbach, a German,who based his conclusion on the beauty of a Georgian female skull found near Mount Caucasus.These people believe the Caucasian people began to fracture about5000 B.C

[goran21715]

@tz88ss32vb The Indo-European family of languages began fracturing into nine major groups about 5,000-4,000 B.C. as follows:

ALBANIAN: Thrice-Illyrian,

ARMENIAN: Greek,

BALTO-SLAVIC: includes Russian, Ukrainian, Polish,

CELTIC: Include Irish, Briton, Gaelic, and Welsh (Cymric),

GERMANIC: includes German, , Swedish, Danish, HELLENIC: Greek,

IRANIAN: Iran, Ossetic, Kurdic and Yezidic,

LATIN: Include French, Rhaeto-Romanic, Ladinic, Friulian, , Portuguese, Italian, Rumanian SANSKRIT

[goran21715]

ccording to linguistics and internal evidence of the Avesta,the Irano-Aryan language family originated high in the splendid Hind Kush mountains of Afghanistan.Historical data indicates that one of these Proto-Iranic-speaking tribes was denominated 'Gut' This ancient Iranic root denominated "warrior"as the erudite Waddell notes,the affixed title of Gut or 'Warrior'(Waddell 1929)One branch of this legendary Gut or warrior tribe migrated to India,where they eventually became the renowned Jats

1. Sargon, the mighty king, king of Akkadê am I,

2. My mother was lowly; my father I did not know;

3. The brother of my father dwelt in the mountain.

4. My city is Azupiranu, which is situated on the bank of the Purattu [Euphrates],

5. My lowly mother conceived me, in secret she brought me forth.

6. She placed me in a basket of reeds, she closed my entrance with bitumen,

7. She cast me upon the rivers which did not overflow me.

[gamesbok]

@DrDavidNeiman It's someone else's ancient homeland, and as the Nazi's built 6,000km of standard gauge railway in the first 6 weeks of their invasion of Russia, I'm not really sure what you consider admirable.

You didn't answer my question.

[DrDavidNeiman]

@gamesbok It is our ancient homeland and been documented in our literature, poetry and history for the past 3,500 years. The country was built through settlement, land purchases, land development and war - where we conquered and won. Time to accept that.

[gamesbok]

@DrDavidNeiman Yea, your literature also documents talking snakes, that the land was Palestine (Exodus 13:17), and there is no nation state of Israel anywhere in history.

The country was built through terrorism. The old Zionist Office in Tel Aviv used to claim that the Land Purchase Scheme had bought 7% of the partition lands, Wikipedia gives 8%., and this includes Arab common land.  You still haven't addressed my point.

[DrDavidNeiman]

@gamesbok The last independent state to exist in the area known as Palestine was Israel, 2000 years ago. Purchased or won through combat, the land is now Israel. 60% of Jordan is Palestinian. There are many Arab/Muslim countries for Palestinians to find refuge. It is unfortunate that the Palestinians Arab brethren in Lebanon and Syria choose to keep them behind barbed wire. That's the real shame.

[gamesbok]

@DrDavidNeiman Although you could have made a case for Judea, Israel as a nation state is a fiction.

'My awareness of the essential nature of Judaism resists the idea of a Jewish state with borders, an army, and a measure of temporal power, no matter how modest. I am afraid of the inner damage Judaism will sustain -- especially from the development of a narrow nationalism within our own ranks, against which we have already had to fight strongly, even without a Jewish state' Albert Einstein.

[DrDavidNeiman]

@gamesbok Israel as a nation state is a reality that, one day, you will have to accept.

[gamesbok]

@DrDavidNeiman I didn't ask an ontological question, I asked a moral question. I fully understand why you don't want to give me an answer.

[DrDavidNeiman]

@gamesbok I obviously disagree with you with regards to the moral character of the state of Israel. I suggest you examine the religious and cultural practices of countries such as Saudi Arabia and even Japan. You might find that they are just as "immoral".

[DrDavidNeiman]

@gamesbok By the way. "Talking snakes" were a popular theme in the literature of the time. Check out the Epic of Gilgamesh, among others.

[PonguigPeopinn]

Wow, there should be more videos like this.

[Ashuralia]

5:10 is the best part when you say the King Sargon story same as Moses ( Moses story was actually came from Sargon the King of Akkad ).

Sargon the King of Akkad was called the best King because he killed the King of Persia , because Persian concord the land of summer ,

Akkad _ Akkadian mean Aghad which means in Assyrian _ Aramaic /Hebrew United , so he united the land + Language + army ( same as Israel today )

[lookingAclass]

was actually copied by the bible authors with so much creativity, just like other religions did... anyhow i love the thing on ur head :D do u know what it resembles at all, cause it looks like what i saw and the position it is set could not be of coincidence?

[gvman3670]

It also seems to me that the people of Gobekli Tepe were in a position to not only migrate towards Sumer, but also into all of Europe. The "blue eyed gene" comes from that region and is dated (through MT DNA) to about the same date that Gobekli Tepe got buried. Sumerians and other early Semites (Noah or Ziusudra for instance) were known to be blue eyed.....and all blue eyed humans share ancestry.

Seems that pre-Sumerian civilizations surely existed, but what's their connection to people now?

[Northax]

@gvman3670 Nah. Semites were never blue eyed. That's a Germanic lie. Germanic people are blue eyed, and they are in northern Europe, where their gene originated; same with blond hair and pale white skin that burns in the strong sun of Mediterranean areas. That's it.

Racist Nazis always trying to claim Middle Eastern (Semitic, Persian, etc.) history just look pathetic. It's because Germanics did not have such an amazing history like Greeks, Romans, Persians, etc.

[Floodlezoot]

Dr. Nieman, to what extent do you think people like to talk about pre-Sumerian civilizations because it relates to modern identity and discomfort people who belong to certain nationalities feel about being "late bloomers" in the overall development of civilization? And to what extent, if any, do you think it's an expression of frustration that there is less mystery surrounding the human past, and it allows less flights of fancy to know where civilization "started" as it were?

[rasheed1660]

sumerians were the dark indians with straight hair not ethiopians with woolly or kinky hair

[sharrokeen]

All the asians and europeans came through the Arabic peninsula which wasn't Arabic by that time they used it to cross from Africa to their new land .

we should be precise and not use the word Arabic since it wasn't so at that time .

by the way "Arab" is an Assyrian word it is derivative from "arbo" which means sheep;

since they used to raise sheep through the south west asian plateau,

till now they are called in assyrian "arabaya"(arbaya) which means that who is related to "

arba" (sheep) .

[lavista402]

Dr.Neiman I am an assyrian and i came across a video few days ago that made me really shocked. The video says that the akkadian and thier genarations of assyrians are originally Arab and they came from the arabian pennesula, so please i can't believe that we are Arabs, i know that Arabs invaded us and confiscated our heritage by belonging our civilization to them ,so can you pls answer my question ? Are we really Arabs? and why don't we see Arabs Named SARGON ; no one Arab named his son Sargon

[rozniy]

where is Civ 1.4?

[goldensassenach]

We know so little of ancient history.We need to get serious about archeology and anthropology in all countries.Including the ocean.And we need to set up an organization like the UN/UNESCO to identify,catagorize,organize and the most important relics.It would have to be non-religious,non-political ,non culturist group of scientists with no preconceived ideals.Then we need a world museum.

[maxillusionist]

Ok now go to wikipedia ------> Zircon....... The name either derives from the Syriac word ܙܐܪܓܥܢܐ zargono,[5] from the Arabic word zarqun (زرقون), meaning vermilion, or from the Persian zargun (زرگون), meaning golden-colored..

[sharrokeen]

@maxillusionist

idiot

the name is not Sargon this is the english name

it is Sharro keen it means in Assyrian the good king, don't speak in what you don't understand .

[salutemyshortsnow]

@maxillusionist The ancient pronunciation of Sargon was "Sharrukin," meaning, in Akkadian, "the true king." Many modern-day Assyrians name their sons Sharrukin, as well as Sargon, as they are the same name.

[narrowcross]

Sargon of Akkad, Hammurabi, Nebuchadnezzar II are all ancient Iraqi leaders. Assyria, Babylon, Samaria are all ancient Iraqi civilization and yes Iraq is the birth place of Civilization and culture.

Simple as that!

[Academic1Researcher]

@narrowcross Couldn't have said it better myself.

[AlphaMaIe]

@narrowcross

haha no they arent arabic,jewish,asyris,akkads and and and are dark skinned people

and most of their facial feature is bigger nose or wider nostrils and filled lips

and semits (arabians,jews...) where racist they tought that they are perfect race because they arent

too dark and arent too white thats why you have in talmud writen and in bibble that jews are chosen people

im myself semit but god we are bad people we just look how to get money look zionists in america and sheiks...

[cageofrage69]

@narrowcross All correct except fopr Samaria..Samaria was a neighbor of Judah in the Levant region. You mean Sumeria

[1967BestMan]

He speaks for something real great. He speaks about the complete absorb and not anahilation of the Sumerians to the Akkadian people. They became semites by accepting the semitic civillization of the Akkadians and the semitic way of thinking and living. That's why we see them "disappear" from history's records soon after the Akkadian empire.

[scheisseimhirn]

Adam Kadmon = Adapa (son of Enki and a human woman). The Rebbe Schneerson actually believed that Jews are descendants of Adam Kadmon / Adapa (who was a Nephilim).

The bad thing is, Enki is the leader of the fallen angels who corrupted mankind. Enki is Lucifer. Therefore Adam Kadmon / Adapa is the anti-human, the anti-godly creation.

Schneerson claimed to be Jewish, but his "supreme God" was Marduk.

770 Eastern Parkway is the Synagogue of Satan where once illegal abortions were performed.

[rodneyirani]

@scheisseimhirn Adama was the first man "A DAM AH" Of this blood, Shiru or Sperm of Enki, Cesarean born in Ninti's womb. Enki was half brother of Ninti. Adam was a test tube baby basically and the egg was of human origin but implanted in Ninti who had him on the 10th month. Born late. Yes Ninti Enki and Enlil were children of ANU of Nibiru/Marduk and were Nephelim, which literally means the Fallen, Back then they were considered Elohim, meaning the Gods. Dunno why religion screws stuff?

[IfourI]

i just want to know why are jewish people so interested in these subjects but they discriminate against the people of these lands and clearly have hate for them enough hate to use the names of thier kings as villians in marvel comic books and other hollywood projects always trying to missinform and confuse the general population about the true history of mesopotamia whas abraham not summerian from UR

[kingbigdawg9]

funny the jews who were in OUR captivity for well over 200 years( Yom Kippur or in Assyrian Yomma Kappura in english Black day ) DID NOT KNOW that we understood what they were saying thats why everytime they tried to escape we were their waiting....see a jew wont tell you that in order for him\her to read understand hebrew he must FIRST LEARN THE ASSYRIAN language why.....it was STOLEN wouldnt you agree Doc?

[abarrathemaster]

sargon was the great before alexander, he had not this conqure lands by mark himself in the united remember of humanlity since his death and will still be remember long after most of us had been forgotten.

[MrMesu9]

learning from the people that lied of history for hundreds of years...... I past on this one...

[bboybenja87]

how sure is it that sumerians were the first civilization?? b/c there is plenty of underwater pyramids/buildings that could sugest there has been other civilizations even older than sumer! like the pyramid off the coast of japan.

[DrDavidNeiman]

Sumerian is the oldest recorded civilization that is documented in writing.

I personally agree with you that there seems to be evidence of a great antediluvian world civilization. I'm not sure what of what my father's thoughts were on the matter, but I imagine he would not have dismissed the possibility. His teacher, Professor Cyrus Gordon held some rather cutting-edge ideas about the reach of ancient civilizations throughout the world including the Americas. -- Becky Neiman, PDE

[ahuramazdarules]

Actually, Harappan is purported to be the oldest recorded civilization that is documented in a variety of 5-17 ideographic seal signs found mostly in the Indus Valley. The fact remains however, that given no Rosetta Stone like inscriptions, the language remains undeciphered, so we don't know WHAT is documented. Any thoughts to share on that? @DrDavidNeiman

[Docrocks77]

@bboybenja87 hi, watch footages of PUMA PUNKU for example, in case the oldest (found) Ruins in Bolivia.

The intersting and not solved big question here is, how can an ancient culture build massive struktures out of granite and diarite without diamond tools in a time 25.000 bc !

Awsom found

cheerz Doc

[bboybenja87]

@Docrocks77 yeah i agree puma punku is definitley a interesting place but i wish there would be more investigations of underwater ruins who knows how many there are out there i heard of some being off the coast of california do you know if this is true? an how old?

[ChuckSchuldinerRIP0]

@bboybenja87 You must be talking about Mu with Lemurian, and Atlantean. The plateau found in Japan is what is remaining of a ziggurat that was from Lemurian origin (c 13,000 BC).

[bboybenja87]

@ChuckSchuldinerRIP0 im talking about yonaguni! but that sounds interesting...

[ChuckSchuldinerRIP0]

@bboybenja87 That's exactly what I'm talking about, I just didn't know what the plateau was called. That's of Mu origin.

[PantsInTheFamily]

@bboybenja87

[jphill4]

were summerians among the first modern humans?

[Thechrisomighty]

YOU CANNOT TRUST ANY JEW, IF A JEW TOLD ME THAT THE SKY WAS BLUE I WOULD STILL HAVE TO DOUBLE CHECK IT.

[reedo1703]

@Thechrisomighty The sky isn't blue. It's just a reflection of the water on Earth! And, what is blue anyways? What I see as blue, you could very well see as red. Life is fucking crazy, isn't it?!

[Thechrisomighty]

@reedo1703 i thought it was the other way round, the sea reflecting the sky, as per you the skys must be green above the amazon LOL!! life is surely fucked up ;)

[reedo1703]

@Thechrisomighty My mind is melting!

[Thechrisomighty]

@reedo1703 lol nobody said it was gonna be easy, sorry!!

[gamesbok]

The Sargon story says his mother put him in a basket, sealed with tar, the Moses story exactly.

[lebaneseprince25]

acording to arcalogal text the akkad did have asian features [mongolid]

[m741ex]

Sargon of Akkad was an outstanding man in the ancient world & also great leader.

[Babillonia]

It's abvious that Moses copied his birth story from Sargon the Akkadian.

[AlphaMaIe]

ZIONIST !!!

[DrDavidNeiman]

@AlphaMaIe Absolutely.

[fustigamatti]

@DrDavidNeiman Well, then you must be ashamed of, rather of being "witty".

[gamesbok]

@DrDavidNeiman When I was in Israel what I saw was Zionists creating lebensarum for the herrenvolk at the expense of the untermensch. If you can tell me how this differs from Nazi philosophy I'm all ears.

[gvman3670]

@AlphaMaIe The Akkads had to be the predecessors of the Khazar or Ashkenazi. They came from the same regions and went into Sumer.

That is pretty close to the site of Gobekli Tepe, as well. I wonder if there's a connection between those peoples and the Sumerians/Akkadians/Babylonian­s. It seems feasible, since they are from that region and fit the physical descriptions of early Sumerians. GT is at the headwaters of the "Fertile Crescent", too. Anyone venture a guess? Any studies known?

[Standingearth]

@AlphaMaIe Are you envious because this man has worked hard and is brilliant? Why don't you study and become like him, instead of behaving like Cain did with Abel and letting your jealousy overwhelm you. You should rise above this level of bigotry.

[AlphaMaIe]

@Standingearth

just joking chill

[TheRenatto0o]

From Brazil: very nice work.

Thumbs up!

[genoa2878]

moses

[gamesbok]

I've never seen any reference to Sargon before 2300BC.

[DrDavidNeiman]

Most sources date Sargon of Akkad from 2334 to 2279 BC. I have found some sources that support the 2700 BC date, but they are in the minority. Once citation is in a book called "The Arts of China" by William Watson.

[gamesbok]

@DrDavidNeiman Thanks for the response. It's a wonderful subject and I appreciate the lectures.

[UmakeMeSYK]

ALL ASSYRIAN u can call them what u want but in the end they all called them selfs assyrians check their texts u give names for nations as they have their own name they gave them selfs READ ABOUT IT IN THEIR HISTORY and not converted shit the natural tongue and u will see ASSYRIAN EVERYWHERE U READ losers

[PROJEK3]

you know that moses is a copy of sargon

[kenzeus]

IdiotGram lol

[G33KN3rd]

this guy is Jewish as hell >_>

[carlospinedar]

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Awesome Monkey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Zuttan]

Sumerians,Akkadians,Assyrians,­Babylonians,Jews,Arameans all these people are semites

[parandehdarya]

sumerians and elamites were not so called semetic

[Usumgallu]

@Zuttan Sumerian aren't. Their language is still regarded as an isolate.

[DNAtracer]

Had the Akkadians came from the East Med (Canaan), Assyrians-Babylonians & Iraqis in general will have a high % of E1b1b1ba3-V22, which is not the case

Akkadians seem to be the first Semitic migration to enter Mesopotamia that came from whats today Oman-Persian Gulf. While the next waves of Semites came from Western Arabia & the Levant

[truthhitmanisback]

Sumerians called them selves the "black headed people" on the Babylonion Inscriptions. This is backed up by Genesis 10:6 says that Nimrod the grandson of Ham , founded Shinar. This was long before Sargon of 2270 bc. And not everyone agrees with Sumerians being older than Egypt. Ethiopia is Older than all of them.

[quicksilver231]

@truthhitmanisback

no

ethiopia is a product of the people of Yemen and native blacks

[truthhitmanisback]

@quicksilver231 Who are the Earths first humans , according to all information we have, including dna ? Black people with afro hair. So wether it was Ethiopia, or Yemen, or Sumer, they were black people BEFORE any other race even existed. No bones on the planet predate African bones, or the bones of black people. No dna pedates the dna from blacks. Science already proves this . It's only the racist who make themselves look dumb by denying these facts.

[quicksilver231]

@truthhitmanisback

i have different facts from science you read

i will send it to you in a pm and tell me here what u see

[quicksilver231]

@truthhitmanisback

take out your friend lock please...for a while

i will prove you that in caucasus the 1st men like the ones we know now came

[TheNightWriter101]

@truthhitmanisback This is completely incorrect. You have some very strange information there. Some of the earliest humanoid bones are african in origin but they are not black because such bones are not human they are neanderthal. I think you are confusing the rise of human civilization with the theory of evoloution here.

[truthhitmanisback]

@TheNightWriter101 Lol... Thats because you a a psyco-pathic racist. White people, and other devils, wont give black people credit for anything. But at least the white women, and others, give the black man credit for BIG BLACK DICK !!!!  Lol...

[TheNightWriter101]

@truthhitmanisback Sounds like you are the racist. Bet deep down you a real HOUSE nig and that's why you frontin all like black power, cause you ashamed. BTW there's no hyphen in psycopathic.

[truthhitmanisback]

@TheNightWriter101 Justice has no colour, the TRUTH has no colour. ANYONE can speak the truth, and the truth is what is actually offending you. By the way if it is spelt Psycopathic then thats what you are, a psycopathic racist. I think deep down inside your Just jealous cos your mum got caught sucking a big fat black dick ! Lol... She had enough of your hairy shouldered, carpet chest, fat,lazy, grey skinned , dad who must have been shit in bed. He couldnt even trust your whore of a mum.

[kunglek]

these comments show why arabs can never get along. They are pretty much stuck in a revolving door of tribal identity that never lets them see themselves as what they really are, which is just more human beings.

[TheTeslaJet]

@kunglek

The Sumers are the fathers of all religion. Without their survival your modern world would be even worse than the war infested place it is. Your racism is a good example of primative man. Well done!

[kunglek]

@TheTeslaJet racism? What kind of english are you speaking? lol. There is nothing racist about my comment.

[STEVEDIGIBOYtv]

@kunglek

Certainly not your type of hating and satanic comments about arabs furthering division. Your just a frightened brainwashed religious nutter no wonder you do not understand.

[kunglek]

@STEVEDIGIBOYtv what the hell are you on about? Why don't you read my posts instead of spouting gibberish nonsense. Holy crap. lol

[1Azadman]

@TheTeslaJet Sumerians are not the first people. Neandertales and nomadic kurds existed over mountain of Kurdistan long before sumerians, there they founded agriculture, metalworks, weaving, making pottery and animal husbandry. Thats were done over mountain over Zagros and Dyarbekir the kurdish mountains. Kurds are mixed and have many ancestors mixed in the kurdish people. Gutians kings had sumerians names, all of gutians kings had sumerians names and they were enemy of both sumerians and akkad.

[MedianParthianKurds]

@1Azadman yes u have right, over 13 000 years kurds live in urfa the mountains Nevala Cori

[1Azadman]

@MedianParthianKurds Kurds are native people ove the mountains of Mesopotamia. Kurds have worlds strogest history. Kurds were nomadisated over North Mesopotamia there kurds founded agriculture, weaving, making pottery, animal husbandry and metall works. You know that kurds are also guilty to COLD WAR because of the republic of Mahabad. US menanced Sovjet with atomic bombs, Sovjet had not devoloped atomic bomb in 1940s untils the cold War then Sovjet whanted revenge US just because of north Iran

[MedianParthianKurds]

@1Azadman this is right, we Kurds are the native people of mesopotamia,

over 13 000 years the first argetecktick of the world is in Riha of the mountain Nevala Cori, the name Kurd is old lateinich Corduena= Mountains people

[IfourI]

@MedianParthianKurds buddy u must have bin breathing to much thin air what do u thinck we are just going to take ur word for it as if there is no recorded history kurd means retard

[juan58102]

@1Azadman Nomadic Kurds came to existed from the family of Noah.. maybe 5 generations after Noah. So my friend.. All people on earth are related .. a little variation color skin only.. This is just wonderful!

[IfourI]

@kunglek sorry but summerians akkadians babylonians assyrians are not arabs

[hutube500]

To all humans who have nothing in common with their fellow humans because he/she thinks they are Caucasian, Persian, Medes, Aryan or whatever else:

Your DNA is traced to Africa !!!

[hetikhetikhetik]

yer we know. but again u neva know lol. but i agree. dm about that wat matters is that these people began the cradle of civilisation. but no matter what humans need a prototype in order to invent

[zaya343]

the persians deserve to die they stole all our science our culture and artwork if your persion you ARE PURE SCUM!

[alfalfa31]

I don't think any modern Persians did that. I'm not Persian, but seriously, the fact that you can call an entire subgroup pure scum based on the actions of their ancestors in antiquity is disturbing.

[FireOfMedia2]

Kassites WERE NEVER Arian! they might be Caucasian! they were a Kurdistanian nation and lived in Southern Parts of Greater Kurdistan now:Luristan and Lakistan. They were related to the Hurrians! and if oyou look at Luri Clothes (manly) they look Caucasian! as Georgian.

[Mithradatesi]

Well Im par Lur part Lak and my people beside being Iranic have nothing in common with Kurds who are for a great deal the descendants of the medes. While Lur and lak are the descendants of Persian Tribes.

[PersianR1A]

R1a Aryan Kasites stomped the Akkadian semitic scum, funny Semites hide that fact till this day!

Sargon of Akkad's reign:
