http://www.drdavidneiman.com. In this third installment of Dr. David Neiman's second lecture on the Cradles of Civilization, Dr. Neiman continues to read from the "Date Formula" or "Year List" of Hammurabi. This listing was created before the great Code of Hammurabi and tracks his accomplishments from early public works projects to his conquests and the creation of the Babylonian Empire under his reign.

Dr. David Neiman (1921-2004) was an internationally renowned scholar, speaker, and writer who inspired many people. His life's work concerned the intricate relations between Christianity, Islam, and Judaism throughout history and in modern times. Dr. Neiman made history come alive through his dramatic presentations and unique interpretations. In light of our current world situation, Dr. Neiman's work is not only extremely relevant but also remarkably prescient. More than anything, Dr. Neiman was a keen observer of the human condition. His words convey our shared history with clarity, humor, and humanity.

Dr. Neiman was the first Jewish scholar appointed to teach Religion at Boston College, one of America's leading Catholic Universities. He served as Professor in the Department of Theology for a quarter of a century. While there he was also invited to teach at the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome. After retiring from Boston College, Dr.Neiman moved to Los Angeles, where he taught at Loyola Marymount University, St. John' s Seminary in Camarillo and the University of Judaism in Bel Air.

  • @ChuckSchuldinerRIP0 No Tiamat AKA the apotheosis of the forces of the ocean.

  • @daermon99 Sumer isn't the beginning, it is a continuation of previous human achievement, just as human achievement continued after Sumer faded.

  • @SamerIRAQ Babylon=Sumerian/Akkadian

    Assyria= Descendants of Akkadian

    It gets really complicated after that and I don't know it all.

    Just say Mesopotamia, it accompanies all tribes and civilizations.

    "You're proud that you are a descendant of Mesopotamia."
