“Los primeros textos escritos de los que se tiene constancia son apuntes contables. Los primeros textos de la humanidad son sobre algo tan prosaico como una lista de ganado y de equipamiento agrícola encontrado en la ciudad de Uruk. Recogían las deudas de personas con otras personas y de personas con el complejo del templo. La escritura tardaría más de mil años en utilizarse para la narrativa.” Daniel acaba de publicar un libro sobre la historia del dinero y su fantástico vínculo con la escritura.Kapital es posible gracias a sus colaboradores:Indexa Capital.

In episode 199 of The Just Checking In Podcast we checked in with academic Dr Andrew George Thomas. Andrew is currently Senior Lecturer in Psychology at Swansea University, researching in the area of Evolutionary Psychology. Andrew did his BSc in Psychology at Cardiff university but moved to Swansea university for his PhD where he studied with Professor Steve Stewart-Williams. In order to fund his PHD, Andrew worked part-time and then full-time in the private sector before he managed to get his foot in the door in academia and has stayed there for the last seven years. Andrew is also the founder of blog ‘Darwin does dating' where he writes about dating, relationships and the sexual marketplace through an evolutionary psychology lens. We came across Andrew through one of his tweets which said: “Don't make the mistake of assuming men have a similar experience to women in terms of receiving compliments, affection, touch. Compliment a man who isn't in the top 5% of desirability and chances are you'll have been the first person to do so for months...” In this episode we discuss all of the mental health angles around that tweet, his academic journey, social class, mating strategies, becoming a counsellor and the concept of ‘dysphoric singlehood'. Andrew was also involved in conducting the largest ever study of incels and we discuss what he and his team uncovered. For Andrew's mental health, we discuss the mental health impact that a previous relationship break-up had on him which ended through his ex-partner being unfaithful as well as two separate but serious bouts of depression and anxiety which took place in around 2012 and 2016 respectively. We discuss those experiences, how he managed them and overcame them AND how he used them to train as a mental health counsellor and his attitude towards therapy and medication.

Cub Kuker Supernatural™ Podcast EP294 Ancient Mesopotamian and Babylonian mythologies have long intrigued scholars due to their striking parallels with Biblical stories. While the Bible is a religious text central to Judaism and Christianity, the Mesopotamian and Babylonian myths date back to older civilizations that existed in the same geographic area. Scholars suggest these similarities could be due to cultural exchanges or shared oral traditions. Here are seven significant connections between these ancient mythologies and the Holy Bible: Creation Stories: Both the Bible (Genesis 1-2) and the Babylonian epic Enuma Elish describe a divine being(s) creating the world from chaos. Flood Narratives: The Epic of Gilgamesh (Tablet XI) from Mesopotamia and the Biblical story of Noah's Ark (Genesis 6-9) both detail a catastrophic flood sent by the gods/God, with a chosen man directed to build an ark to preserve life. Divine Laws: Hammurabi's Code from Babylon and the Biblical Ten Commandments (Exodus 20) both present a set of laws given by a deity for human society. Tower of Babel: The Bible (Genesis 11:1-9) describes humans building a tower to reach heaven, which angers God who confuses their languages. This story parallels Mesopotamian ziggurat structures and myths about their purpose. Garden of Eden: The Bible's Garden of Eden (Genesis 2-3) has parallels with the Sumerian story of Dilmun, described as a paradise where sickness and death do not exist. Heroic Figures: Biblical figures like David and Moses, who rise from humble beginnings to become great leaders, share similarities with Mesopotamian heroes such as Gilgamesh. Divine Retribution: Both sets of texts feature stories where deities punish humans for their sins or disobedience, such as the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah in the Bible (Genesis 19) and the destruction of Ur in Mesopotamian mythology. In summary, the ancient Mesopotamian and Babylonian mythologies share substantial similarities with the Holy Bible in terms of narratives, themes, and underlying moral codes. These connections highlight the shared cultural and theological ideas that existed in the ancient Near East. However, it's important to note that while there are similarities, each set of texts also contains unique elements reflecting their specific religious, cultural, and historical contexts.

‘My friend, whom I loved so dear, who with me went through every danger,my friend Enkidu, whom I loved so dear, who with me went through every danger:‘the doom of mortals overtook him. Six days I wept for him and seven nights.I did not surrender his body for burial, until a maggot dropped from his nostril.‘Then I was afraid that I too would die, I grew fearful of death, and so wander the wild.‘What became of my friend was too much to bear, so on a far road I wander the wild;what became of my friend Enkidu was too much to bear,] so on a far path I wander the wild.‘How can I keep silent? How can I stay quiet? My friend, whom I loved, has turned to clay,my friend Enkidu, whom I loved, has turned to clay. Shall I not be like him and also lie down,never to rise again, through all eternity?'The Epic of Gilgamesh is a very old poem. The Standard Babylonian version of it was redacted over three thousand years ago by an editor and poet named Sîn-lēqi-unninni, but much of the material he compiled was even older than that. The poem describes Gilgamesh, the king of Uruk, two-thirds divine and one-third human, who is so superior to everyone else that the gods must create a companion for him. That companion is Enkidu, a bestial man who must be carefully brought into civilization. Their relationship — and the questions that arise after the gods condemn Enkidu to an early death — are still compelling several thousand years later.

Gilgamesh, the Sumerian king of Uruk, threatens to cut down the sacred Cedar Forest and claim its wood for his people. First, he must kill the terrifying guardian of the forest, Humbaba. Can he do it? What will the gods think, and what will it mean for humanity? The story's message is central to John Perlin's republished book, A Forest Journey: The Role of Trees in the Fate of Civilization. Forests, and the wood they provide, have been crucial to human society since the beginning of recorded time, and now the fight against climate change. But what does history tell us about how we treat them?

Unearthed from the ruins of ancient cities in modern-day Iraq, the reconstruction of the epic from fragments of clay tablets has been a labour of love for scholars of ancient Mesopotamia. This painstaking work has brought to life a sophisticated story of adventure, heroism and friendship, as well as a reflection on the human condition. Today, experts are uncovering additional fragments of cuneiform script and using artificial intelligence to decipher the text and fill in the gaps of this and other stories. Professor Anmar Fadhil from the University of Baghdad tells the programme about the latest discoveries. Bridget Kendall is joined by Andrew George, Emeritus Professor of Babylonian at SOAS at the University of London and author of an acclaimed English translation of the epic; Professor Enrique Jiménez, chair of Ancient Near Eastern Literature at Ludwig-Maximilians University in Munich, Germany who has published widely on Babylonian literature of the first millennium BC; and Dr Louise Pryke, Honorary Associate in the Department of Classics and Ancient History at the University of Sydney in Australia who is the author of Gilgamesh, a guide to the epic which was published in 2019.

The Epic of Gilgamesh (c. 1200 BCE, Standard Babylonian) is based on Gilgamesh of Uruk, a historical king subject to centuries of cult-worship and mythmaking before his exploits were written down. Although this was not unlike the fate of many ancient rulers, the Epic of Gilgamesh separates itself by its poetic modernity and psychological complexity. In this video, Joel Parrish and Alex Sheremet discuss Gilgamesh's failed quest for immortality, the ‘wild man' Enkidu as Gilgamesh's foil and savior, proto-feminist characters such as the prostitute Shamhat, as well as structural questions and the power of specific passages before critiquing a Christian reading of Babylonian polytheism and Great Flood myths.

Hugh Muir has spent much of his journalistic career chronicling the working lives of Britain’s black and minority ethnic police officers. In this programme, he investigates claims that racism is on the rise within policing in the UK. In 1990, the Met acknowledged that it had a problem holding on to its black officers and decided to ask black and Asian staff why so many of them were leaving. Almost all the force’s black police officers attended a two-day meeting at the then Bristol Polytechnic that summer. They had no choice - it was mandatory. The officers all shared experiences of racist ‘banter’ and other mistreatment they had suffered on the job. Many found it therapeutic. However, 30 years on from the ‘Bristol meeting’, black officers say that despite some initial improvements, not much has changed. Some even contend that racism within policing got worse. And since the backlash that followed the killing of George Floyd last year, black officers now face growing hostility from outside as well as from within. For this programme, Hugh has spoken to several black and minority ethnic officers, both serving and retired. They include Andrew George, President of the National Black Police Association, and retired superintendent Leroy Logan, whose life story was recently adapted for the screen by the Oscar-winning director Steve McQueen in his film anthology Small Axe. “I think black cops deserve more internal and external support as the key to making the real progress we all say we want,” Hugh says.

Here are the complete readings I've made from Andrew George's translation of the Mesopotamian Epic of Gilgamesh. In the first, I read about the creation of Enkidu and how, through the sacred prostitute Shamhat, he is civilized and taken out of his life in nature. In the second, I read Enkidu’s deathbed speech, and the dream he has about the Underworld, just before his death. In the third, I read Gilgamesh’s meeting with Utanapishti, who relates the Mesopotamian account of the Flood, and Gilgamesh’s final failure at achieving immortality.

https://www.patreon.com/user?u=31723331 Welcome to The Know Show. The Know Show is a podcast that aims to make sense of the world, one guest at a time. Hosted by former private tutor Hussain, we break down mind-boggling academic research and challenge authors on their work. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Today's subject is one that's special to me personally. That's because we're talking about ancient Mesopotamia, which is located in my native Iraq. My guest is the erudite Prof. Andrew George of SOAS University. Andrew most notably worked on developing and authoring the translation of The Epic of Gilgamesh - which is the oldest poem known to man. His translation to date has sold a remarkable 250,000 copies. But what is more fascinating about Andrew's work is how much in depth research he has done on the original tablets that date back several thousand years. This episode is one full of amazing stories of the past. Andrew gives us his insights on the Epic of Gilgamesh and what it means to us as humans when faced with the reality that we are mortal beings!

Dr. Andrew George, is a Community Engagement Scientist and professor at UNC Chapel Hill, his professional focus is community engagement in environmental problem-solving, democratic decision-making, environmental justice, and well-water resources. Citizen Science (CS), also known as "crowdsourcing" or "crowd-sourced science," is the growing practice of public involvement in the gathering, analyzing, or sorting of scientific data for research purposes. Formally, citizen science refers to "the general public engagement in scientific research activities when citizens actively contribute to science either with their intellectual effort or surrounding knowledge or with their tools and resources" With Dr. Andrew George, we discuss his citizen science approach to well water testing in North Carolina, the two BREDL chapters that are engaging in this testing, the difference between well water and utility water, the contaminants they're finding, and how he's engaging his UNC students in this research.

The Epic of Gilgamesh is an epic poem from ancient Mesopotamia that is often regarded as the earliest surviving great work of literature and the second oldest religious text, after the Pyramid Texts. The literary history of Gilgamesh begins with five Sumerian poems about Bilgamesh (Sumerian for "Gilgamesh"), king of Uruk, dating from the Third Dynasty of Ur (c. 2100 BC). These independent stories were later used as source material for a combined epic in Akkadian. The first surviving version of this combined epic, known as the "Old Babylonian" version dates to the 18th century BC and is titled after its incipit, Shūtur eli sharrī ("Surpassing All Other Kings"). Only a few tablets of it have survived. The later Standard Babylonian version compiled by Sîn-lēqi-unninni dates from the 13th to the 10th centuries BC and bears the incipit Sha naqba īmuru ("He who Saw the Abyss", in modern terms: "He who Sees the Unknown"). Approximately two-thirds of this longer, twelve-tablet version have been recovered. Some of the best copies were discovered in the library ruins of the 7th-century BC Assyrian king Ashurbanipal.

Mitch Harper and Matt Baiamonte look at this week's Cougar Classic, the 2009 win against Oklahoma. BYU was ranked #20 to start the season and was playing in the first college football game at Cowboys Stadium, the brand new palace built by Cowboy's owner Jerry Jones. Mitch says it was a no lose situation for BYU, who was 20-point underdogs to Oklahoma and had a chance to play on a big stage. The Sooners had Heisman-winner Sam Bradford at QB and BYU was missing starting RB Harvey Unga. Norm Chow Play of the Game: Matt had the 4th down conversion to Dennis Pitta that put BYU in the position to score the game-winning touchdown. Dallen had Andrew Rich's forced fumble in the 1st quarter that prevented a potential OU touchdown. Mitch had Brian Kariya's 50-yard reception in the 2nd quarter. Andrew George Underrated Player of the Game: Matt chooses Brian Kariya, who stepped in for Harvey Unga and had a number of explosive plays. Dallen chooses Andrew George for his three catches, touchdown and being the player who drew a PI to set-up 1st and Goal. Mitch chooses Brian Logan, who had 4 tackles and 2 PBU's in the game.

For Mitch, it was Kavika Fonua, Matt had Sawyer Powell and Dallen has Austin Lee. The Norm Chow play of the game is next and Mitch had running the ball with Ty’Son in overtime. Matt had Ty’Son’s TD in the 3rd quarter and Dallen had the reverse to Aleva Hifo that led to the game-winning TD.

The epic of Gilgamesh is considered the earliest surviving work of literature from Mesopotamia, containing five Sumerian poems about Gilgamesh, the king of Uruk, dating from the third dynasty of Ur, circa 2100 BC. These poems are standalone, but also contained within the much expanded Akkadian, which I hope to read in a future series. The original poems were written on a clay tablet and partially damaged over time, leaving transcriptions of the great epic slightly unfinished. The version favored by most scholars is the Andrew George translation, which I’ll be reading for you today. A very special thank you goes out to Michael (@CrankageGames) and Yasmine-Nadia (@KaleidoscopeGS), for recommending this wonderful epic for us.

But, in the era of third-party payment for health care, such charges have taken on an entirely new form, particularly when the third party in question is the federal Medicare program. How does the government proceed to establish that Medicare fraud has taken place? How does it distinguish fraud from poor judgment or incompetence? And what does that mean for the practicing physician who submits thousands of claims a year to Medicare? https://accadandkoka.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/georgeandrew-e1548442469853.jpg ()Andrew George, JD To help shed light on the legal procedures, tactics, and tricks that can send a physician to a federal jail, our guests are Kyle Clark and Andrew George, defense attorneys who specialize in white collar crime and healthcare fraud.

What’s all this nonsense about sending the Parthenon Marbles back to Greece? If Lord Elgin hadn’t rescued them from the Parthenon in Athens and presented them to the British Museum almost 200 years ago, these exquisite sculptures – the finest embodiment of the classical ideal of beauty and harmony – would have been lost to the ravages of pollution and time. So we have every right to keep them: indeed, returning them would set a dangerous precedent, setting off a clamour for every Egyptian mummy and Grecian urn to be wrenched from the world’s museums and sent back to its country of origin. It is great institutions like the British Museum that have established such artefacts as items of world significance: more people see the Marbles in the BM than visit Athens every year. Why send them back to relative obscurity?But aren’t such arguments a little too imperialistic? All this talk of visitor numbers and dangerous precedents – doesn’t it just sound like an excuse for Britain to hold on to dubiously acquired treasures that were removed without the consent of the Greek people to whom they culturally and historically belong? That’s what Lord Byron thought, and in June 2012 Stephen Fry took up the cause. In this debate Fry argues we should return the Marbles as a gesture of solidarity with Greece in its financial distress, and as a mark of respect for the cradle of democracy and the birthplace of rational thought.Joining Fry on the "For" side was Andrew George. Chair of Marbles Reunite and Liberal Democrat MP for St Ives. Against them were Felipe Fernández-Armesto, the William P Reynolds Professor of History at the University of Notre Dame; and Tristram Hunt, Labour MP for Stoke-on-Trent Central and a broadcaster, historian and newspaper columnist.The debate was chaired by BBC World News presenter Zeinab Badawi.

Be My Baby in Babylonia: Girl Meets Boy and Vice Versa Presented by Andrew George, Professor of Babylonian, University of London, SOAS. Wednesday, April 5, 2017 This lecture presents two Old Babylonian incantations in comparative perspective. The language and emotions of new love and sexual attraction are shared in compositions as diverse as Akkadian and Sumerian love incantations and popular music from nearly four thousand years later. The incantations are on tablets newly published in the speaker’s Mesopotamian Incantations and Related Texts. One is completely new, the other strangely familiar. This audio recording was originally presented as an illustrated lecture. The video of this lecture is available on the OI YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/xYSqscmp_f0

The Museum of Lost Objects traces the histories of 10 antiquities or cultural sites that have been destroyed or looted in Iraq and Syria. The ancient Assyrians were fond of protective spirits. They had sculptures of all manner of mythological creatures lining the walls of their palaces. One such sculpture was a stone relief of a genie. This was a powerful male figure - a bountiful beard and muscular thighs but with huge wings sprouting from his back. Three thousand years ago, it adorned the walls of Nimrud, one of the great strongholds of Mesopotamia, near Mosul in modern day Iraq. During the 1990s, this genie disappeared - believed to have been taken during the chaos of the first Gulf war - and ended up in London around 2002 - just before the mire of the second Gulf war. It's been kept by Scotland Yard for these last 14 years - locked in legal limbo, and unlikely to ever re-emerge or return to Iraq. We explore the cost of looting to a country's cultural heritage, and tell the story of another valuable Mesopotamian antiquity that was looted, eventually uncovered, but managed to stay in Iraq. This is a tablet, and holds a new chapter from the oldest tale ever told - the Gilgamesh epic. Contributors: Mark Altaweel, Institute of Archaeology UCL; Augusta McMahon, University of Cambridge; Mina al-Lami, BBC Monitoring; the readings are by Martin Worthington, George Watkins, and Susan Jameson Presenter: Kanishk Tharoor Producer: Maryam Maruf Picture: Assyrian winged-genie from Nimrud, very similar in style to the genie in possession of Scotland Yard Credit: Brooklyn Museum With thanks to Vernon Rapley of the V&A, Sarah Collins of the British Museum, Andrew George of SOAS, and John Russell of the Massachusetts College of Art and Design.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the Library at Nineveh, a treasure house of Assyrian ideas from the 7th Century BC. In 1849 a young English adventurer called Henry Layard started digging into a small hill on the banks of the River Tigris in Northern Iraq. Underneath it he found the ancient city of Nineveh. Layard unearthed extraordinary things - wonderful carved reliefs, ancient palace rooms and great statues of winged bulls. He also found a collection of clay tablets, broken up, jumbled around and sitting on the floor of a toilet. It was the remnants of a library and although Layard didn't know it at the time, it was one of the greatest archaeological finds ever made.Conceived to house the sum of all human knowledge the library was built in the 7th century BC as the grand Assyrian Empire entered its last years. The clay tablets have proved to be a window into all aspects of Assyrian life, its literature, politics, religion and medicine – practises that are both deeply alien to us and alluringly familiar. With Eleanor Robson, Senior Lecturer at Cambridge University and Vice-Chair of the British Institute for the Study of Iraq; Karen Radner, Lecturer in the Ancient Near Eastern History at University College London; Andrew George, Professor of Babylonian at the School of Oriental and African Studies at the University of London

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the truth about Babylon. Six thousand years ago, between the Tigris and the Euphrates, the first cities were being built. The great empire to spring from the region was Babylon, which held sway for over a thousand years and in that time managed to garner an extraordinarily bad press: it's associated with the Tower of Babel, with Nineveh where Jonah is sent to preach repentance and, perhaps most famously, with “Mystery, Babylon the Great, the Mother of Harlots and Abominations of the Earth” - the whore of Babylon, who in Revelation is taken to personify the city itself. It's not just the Bible; Herodotus described the Babylonians as effeminate, lascivious and decadent as well.But what is the true story? Classics in this country has meant a study of Greece and Rome, but there is an increasingly vocal contingent that claims that Babylonian culture has been hugely undervalued, and that there is a great wealth of extraordinary literature waiting to be translated.With Eleanor Robson, Lecturer in the History and Philosophy of Science at Cambridge University; Irving Finkel, Curator in the Department of the Ancient Near East at the British Museum; Andrew George, Professor of Babylonian at the School of Oriental and African Studies.
