— Die Chronologie der Geschichte Israels, Aegyptens, Babyloniens u.
Assyriens.
Leipzig, 1896. Rost
— Untersuchungen zur altorientalischen Geschichte, MVAG, II. 2, 1897. Winckler
— Zur babylonisch-assyrischen Chronologie. UAG. Leipzig, 1889. The
classical descriptions of Mesopotamia are those of Herodotus, I. 193,
Strabo,
XVI. 1, and Pliny, N. H. XVIII. 17, The most complete modern discussion
still
remains that of Rawlinson in GM, I, 1-42 ("Chaldæa"), and 180-235
("Assyria"), including land, climate, and productions. Compare
EncyBrit, arts. "Babylonia," "Mesopotamia;" MaDC, 547.-560;
MaSN, 597602; RoHBA, I. 266-289; TiBAG, I. 50-58; HoGBA, 180-195;
KaAuB, ch.
ii.; KiEBi, I- cols. 350, 420; HoHBD, I. 176, 214. The books of travel
referred
to in the Bibliography IV. may also be profitably consulted. Excellent
maps in
HBD, I. 176; EBi (art. "Assyria"). II THE EXCAVATIONS IN BABYLONIA AND ASSYRIA The most exhaustive account of the exploration of the lands of the Tigris and Euphrates, the excavation of the ruin-sites and the decipherment of the monuments, is that in RoHBA, I, 1-253. Less complete but accurate and more or less readable accounts are found in ABL, iii-xxxii (R, F. Harper); a series of articles by the same scholar in the Old and New Testament Student, XIV. 1 and 2, and the Biblical World, I. 4 and 5; VIII. 1; HoGBA, 58-146; KaAuB, chs. Iii., v., vi.; Delitzsch, "Assyrian Grammar," 1-8. Compare also Lyon, "A Half Century of Assyriology," in Bib. World, VIII. 2. The narratives of the explorers and excavators contain material of the first importance and the deepest interest. The student would do well to dip into LayNR and read vol. I. ch. iii. or vol. II. ch. xiii.; and PeN, vol. I. ch. xi. or vol. II. ch. iii., to catch a glimpse of the actual experiences of the workers. III THE LANGUAGE AND LITERATURE See
references for ch. ii. (decipherment of inscriptions) and EvNL, ch.
iv.;
Mahaffy, "Prolegomena to Ancient History," 167-212; On the
"Sumerian" problem the leading discussions on opposite sides are
Weissbach, "Die Sumerische Frage" (for "Sumerian" ), and
Halévy, "Le Sumérisme et l'histoire babylonienne" (against "Sumerian").
Compare also McHPM, T. sects. 79-85; and his article in Pres. and Ref.
Review,
II. 6; HBD, art. "Accad" and lit. there cited. HoGBA, 237-258,
sketches the Old "Sumerian" civilization with unwarranted certainty. Besides
the works On the literature cited in the Bibliography, the religious
literature
is treated most fully in JaRBA (see table of cont.); Jastrow has also
written
on "The Text Book Literature of the Babylonians" in the Bib. World,
IX. 4. Compare ABL, xxxiv-lxii, for an excellent summary of the whole
subject,
as also KaAuB, ch. vii. Translations of these texts are referred to in
the
Bibliography. See also "References" to Part I. chs. iii. and iv. IV CHRONOLOGY AND HISTORY See
Bibliography under IX. "Chronology" for special treatises. Good
general discussions are found in RoHBA, I. 312-348; Paton, "Oriental
Chronology" in Bib. World, July, 1901. A thoroughgoing article with
valuable texts but not altogether up to date is that by Winckler, "Zur
babylonisch-assyrischen Chronologie," in UAG, 1-46; see also Wi, "Zur
babylonisch-assyrischen Geschichte" in AOF, I. 5. On Herodotus as a
trustworthy oriental historian some controversy has arisen; see Sayce
in the
preface to his "Ancient Empires of the East," and Tolman and
Stevenson "Herodotus and the Empires of the East" which is based on
Nikel, "Herodot und die Keilschriftforschung." WaESG has excellent
material on Berosus, Ctesias, and Ptolemy (see index). TiBAG, 12-49,
goes
thoroughly into the sources. The Kings' List is translated in SchKB,
II. 286
f., RP², I. 13 f. (compare the Introduction); the Assyrian Limu List
(Eponym
Canon) in SchKB, I. 204 ff., III. ii. 143 ff., RP², II. 110 ff. PART I. — THE CITY STATES OF BABYLONIA AND THEIR UNIFICATION UNDER BABYLON I THE DAWN OF HISTORY See the histories: MaDC, 560-564; HoGBA, 195-263 (the cities), 269-280 (the surrounding peoples); TiBAG, 81-90 (the cities); McHPM, I. 77-95. The fragments of Berosus are found in Cory, "Ancient Fragments," London 1876. A readable article is Sayce, "The Antiquity of Civilized Man," in Am. Jour. of Theology, V. 4; DeIP gathers material on the early sites and districts; Lenormant, "The Beginnings of History," New York 1893, discusses the problems of early traditions. Map for period of beginnings down to 1100 B. C. in HeWG, lII. 10. II MOVEMENTS TOWARD EXPANSION AND UNIFICATION MaDC,
595-620; TiBAG, 100-124; HoGBA, 281-374; McHPM, I. 96-132; WiGBA,
18-49;
MDelGBA, 72-84; RoHBA, 349-385. The texts are gathered in SchKB, III.
i. Those
found at Nippur are in Hilprecht, "Old Babylonian Inscriptions," vol.
I. pts. 1 and 2, with valuable introductions. The chief Gudea texts
have been
published by Price, "The Great Cylinder Inscriptions (A and B) of
Gudea," I., and English translations of these and other inscriptions of
early rulers are made by Amiaud in RP², I. and II., "The Inscriptions
of
Telloh." The original publication of the Tello material was made by De
Sarzec-Heuzey, "Découvertes en Chaldée." Compare EvNL, ch. V.; HiRR,
"Explorations in Babylonia," 43 ff. Radau, "Early Babylonian
History," New York 1900, collects and discusses thoroughly, though in a
confused and difficult fashion, all this early material, and is
indispensable
for detailed study. On Gen. xiv. there are discussions in the works
mentioned
under VII. "Babylonio-Assyrian Monuments and the Bible" in the
Bibliography. Compare King, "Letters and Inscriptions of Hammurabi,"
I. xlix f. and EBi, art. "Chedorlaomer." The chronological problems
of this chapter, revolving about the date of Sargon, have been recently
attacked by Lehmann, "Zwei Hauptprobleme d. altorient. Chronologie,"
1898. See Wi, "Die altmesopotamischen Reiche," in UAG, 65-90, and
"Die politische Entwickelung Altmesopotamiens," in AOF, I.i. III AND IV CIVILIZATION OF OLD BABYLONIA Besides the works mentioned in Bibliography VI. "Manners and Customs" and V. "Religion," compare chapters on the Babylonio-Assyrian civilization in DuHA, I. ii. chs. ii. and iii.; MaDC, 535-546, 623-700, 703-784; TiBAG, II. 485 ff. (summarizes the whole subject under "Die babylonisch-assyrische Kultur"); HoGBA, 375-406; McHPM, I.27-76; WiGBA, 5056; RawlGM, I. 61 ff.; LenHA, V. livre vi. (summarizes the whole as Tiele); MeyGA, I. 172-193; HeWG, 31-42, Simcox, "Primitive Civilizations," I. bk. ii. Texts of business documents with translations in SchKB, IV. and Meissner, "Beiträge zum Altbabylonischen Privatrecht," Leipzig 1893. On ancient Babylonian science compare the standard work of Jensen, "Die Kosmologie der Babylonier," Strassburg 1890; HBD, art. "Cosmogony" and EncyBrit. under same head. On
art, besides the great work of Perrot and Chipiez (see Bibl. VI.),
compare
Reber, "Ueber altchaldische Kunst," ZA, I. and II. On
the literature strictly so called, see Sayce, "Babylonian
Literature," London, n. d.; Id.,
"The Literary Works of Ancient Babylonia" in ZK, I.; brief summaries
of the Epics, etc., in HoHBD, I. 220-222; Geo. Smith, "The Chaldean
Account of Genesis," N. Y. n. d. (full accounts of the legends, etc.);
KiBRM, chs. iii.-v. An excellent discussion of the forms of the clay
tablets,
etc. in KiEBi, I. cols. 428 f. V THE TIMES OF KHAMMURABI OF BABYLON MaSN,
19-50; TiBAG, 124-127; HoGBA, 407-417; McHPM, I. 132-142; WiGBA, 57-68;
MDelGBA, 84-89; RoHBA, I. 386-397. The standard edition of the texts is
King,
"The Letters and Inscriptions of Hammurabi," 3 vols., London
1898-1900 (translations in vol. III.), introductions especially
valuable. On
the changes in civilization and religion, see WiGBA, 69-76, and JaRBA,
ch.
viii. An important article on chronology is Lindl, "Die Datenlist der
ersten Dynastie von Babylon," BA, IV. 3. PART II — THE RISE OF ASSYRIA AND ITS STRUGGLES WITH KASSITE BABYLONIA I AND II THE KASSITE CONQUEST AND ASSYRIAN WARS MaSN, 111-120, 588-612; TiBAG, 127-149; HoGBA, 418513; McHPM, I. 142-151, 206-218; WiGBA, 77-100, 169171; MDelGBA, 89-94, 142-150; RoHBA, I. 398-429, II. 1-20. Delitzsch has written especially on the Kassites in his "Die Sprache der Kossäer," Leipzig 1884; see also Wi., "Die babylonische Kassitendynastie" in AOF, I. 2. The texts are in SchKB, III. i., ABL, 3 ff. (Agumkakrime), 217 ff. (Tel-el-Amarna), Winckler, "The Tel-el-Amarna Letters," London 1896 (English trans. of entire collection). HiOBI, I. i. has a valuable discussion of the Kassite kings. The "Synchronistic History" is translated in ABL, 196 ff., RP², IV. 24 ff. The early texts of the "Babylonian Chronicle" are in RP², V. 106 ff. For the other chronological documents, see "References" to Int. ch. IV. The
literature on the Tel-el-Amarna letters is large. Compare EvNL, chs.
vi.-viii.;
Tiele, "Western Asia according to the Most Recent Discoveries,"
London; Ball, "Light from the East," 86 ff.; Sayce in RP², II.-III.,
V. with translations. For the early patesis
of Assyria, see Johns, "A new Patesi
of Ashur," in AJSL, XVIII. 3. III CIVILIZATION AND CULTURE IN THE KASSITE PERIOD On the Kassite civilization and early Assyrian conditions, see WiGBA, 101-110,140-151, 163-168; MaSN, 617-642; MeyGA, I. 334-336; KiEBi, cols. 351 f., 363 f., 446 f.; HoHBD, 180 f., 227.
