It seems to me that Iraq was the historic centre of the universe.

Maybe you don't need a catalogue in the library that holds the actual tablets, since you can just go and look at them; but in th eother library, you need a catalogue, so that you can order the correct tablets for an inter-library loan - as you cannot get them to send to whole book on one donkey!

An excellent video with a crucial question at its heart. It seems to me that your argument that historic seers would never put their reputation on the line is diminished by the fact that the system lasted so long ... why on Earth would any system of divination be so long-lasting if it never provided an accurate answer ?

I love it! An anthropology lesson about ghosts and what people did at the time to manipulate them.

Please sub in english so i can listen while doing chores 😅

Shamanism is partly defined as the ability to transform one thing into another. By this metric we might say comedians who create comedy out of tragedy are shamans. This may seem like ''small magic'' but I assure you it is powerful and has merit.🥰 "It is hard work, and great art, to make life, not so serious.'' -John Irving (The Hotel New Hampshire.)🤣

wonderful lecture...the Assyrians would have loved Dr . John Dee's obsidian mirror

Book ordered 😁

JUST FOUND YOU. THANKING YOU FOR WHO YOU ARE AND WHAT YOU DO ! MANY BLESSINGS SENT.

The list of cuniform games fpr girls and boys feels like an Amazon gift search result 😂. Brilliant!

Mesopotamian Magic..became..the religion of today

Well to be fair lamashtu and pazuzu both ate new born and thats why they were rivals lamashtu later became lilith btw

I believe ghosts have existed even long before this i also believe writing existed far longer but most likely in a smaller capacity.

I need to buy this book.

Very INTERESTING and EDUCATIONAL THANK YOU! BLESSINGS!

Game of Ur is really marvelous!!!!!❤

The World is such a better place for having Prof Finkle in it. ❤ 🙏🙏🙏🔥🙏🙏🙏

Why do yall keep calling santa, irving?

Finkel is Einhorn. Einhorn is Finkel.

I like Finkel much, I only wish he would address devine remembering that brought about the repetition and construction of the reliquarium used to teach ~

You're a true treasure❤ Thank you for everything!

Love it 🤍

Big fan of Professor Finkel. Love the way you present, it's intimate with the evidence in a way more scholarly approaches would miss. .

dogs dont sweat

Does anyone remember the disney animation The Sword In The Stone? Lol. He reminds me of merlin in that film. I like to imagine he goes around knocking morons innthe head for saying dumb things. Lol

Yah they did pazuzu wrong innthat fil. He been protecting mothers and children since the beginning. Lol. But people didnt know much about the gods from sumer and Mesopotamia

You Oi oo

Jeeze. Imagine beinf a diviner i have good luck with divination. Imagine if u werent lucky at that. Ull be thrown innthe blazing bull for not being good at it. Sounds scary i dont use livers lol. But i do have great luck being right. I dont use any tools. Thats why i think it has to do with things like pattern recognition and personal exlerience and things i know from the past. Thats what i assume. Knowing the person also is huge or at least being a good judge of character... but still..ive beennright about things incould have never known. Ive scared people away with it. Cus i dont really have to try. So it happens when im not even trying to do that. Or ill get the sense that something is wrong. Someones needs me or someones been in a car accident...a house is on fire or trying to end their life. Inlive in fl so those things happen way too often

I LOVE THIS GUY. hes funny amd i dig what he's teaching. Never seen him till today. I've dealt with ghosts amd demons and those kinds of moments are always terrifying. So I started researching. And that was since I was young. I'm almost 40 now amd I learned new things watching this. Do u guys remember the merlin in the Disney animation from back in the day. On vhs. HES SO MUCH LIKE THAT MOVIE. I LOVE IT SO MUCH. it's what i wanted to grow up to be but i'm a girl....soooo. hahahaha wanted to be merlin amd i'm gonna be like that ugly frumpy mean witch lady that he fought with. Lol if I had gone to a lecture of his amd heard this inwould have started laughing band applauding at the end like a weirdo. Imagine him being ur professor and one of the students does that after class is done. That was just sonentertqining amd so educational. I sat here with an agate smile tho whole time. Half wowed and half entertained. This was wonderful. Never seen him before but I absolutely want to see more of what he's got

Family members were buried in the courtyard? Thats nuts. I didnt know that. Makes sense. Ive seen ghosts. I didnt recognise them. The only family member insaw that visited me it was my grandfathers. They came to my dreams. But even in my dreams, they were in spirit form. And I'd be the only one who could see them. And i remember telling my dad that insaw his father in my dream and he said it probably was just a dream and saidbi wouldnt be able to remember what he looks like cusbi was very little when he passed. And down the road, I'd find a photo, and it was him. Crazy

Where those stones that kept demons away from ur home the same as like gargoyles. I love gargoyels. They protect ur home and look demonish

I love Dr. Finkel But that beard??? Icky....

Nice collection of loot Doc.😈

"Other scratchy head things" lmao!!! If I was this man's kid, I probably would have gotten into trouble constantly, just to get a speach!!

I'm in! Let's go to the house!!

This mumbo jumbo eh (Ancient father)(protect us) (from evil done) (upon us) (Ancient mother) (protect us) (from doing evil) (upon other) (Ancient mother) (protect us) (from evil done) (upon other) (Holy father ghost) (holy spirit) (bless us) (bless all)

Absolutely superb. I hung on every word ! Thank you Dr Finkel.

אף פעם לא הטפתי למשיח ב'ישוע', "הם" שמואל ודויד גנבו את כס המלכות שלי ואת כל החירויות שלכם. הגילויים הולכים להיות חקוקים על ידם עכשיו... מכיוון שכל הדתות הן פיקציה מכתבים אמיתיים ורק שלום ואהבה. שני אלה BILL ו-ELON, וכעת 80,000,000 אנשים (1%) שולטים כעת בנרטיב וכבר 226,000,000 שנים. תסתכל על ציר הזמן שלך, הוא שקרי, זה תסריט. אתם העם שלי, ואני

The First language & writings of mankind was 'Paleo Hebrew' which changed later-on at the tower of Babel then Yah (God) of the Bible & creator of all things came down to the earth with His Angels to confused the peoples language due to their Sin against Him; - they thought to kill Him & takeover from Him - somehow through the use of their tower of Babel ?. So Yah (God) came down from heaven to stop them by changing the one language of the people 'Paleo Hebrew' He gave to them - into 70 different language's according to the number of the Sons of Yah/God - the Angels appointed by Yah to rule over these 70 languages and their peoples in the world. The man called : 'Abram' - later to be renamed Abraham'; found favour in the eyes of Yah (God), so only Abram and his household was allow to keep Yah's (God's) ordinal language & writing of 'Paleo Hebrew' because Abram believed in Yah and pleased Him by walking with Yah in His righteous Way's,... this is the way of Yah's people; to believe in Him and walk in His right-ruling Way's, this is what His only begotten Son : Yahusha (Jesus) Messiah came down here to earth to teach us; and to pay the price for our sins by His death on the cross' and all those who believe in Him, repent of sin, and start to learn of Him and follow Him in His Fathers right-ruling Way's will be saved : See (John 3:16-21, Matthew 11 : 17-30, 1 John 5: 2-5, & Exodus 20:1-17). I pray this info is a blessing to you and all 💕🙏

Sounds like a neat twist to throw on Pazuzu in a D&D campaign. His fall to Demon lord in prehistory being related directly to mortal perceptions corrupting him after a misrepresentation, making him a corrupter in turn instead of a guardian.

I my research i'v found all ghosts are just demon tricksters' 👻
