In 1750BC a disgruntled customer sent a letter of complaint to his copper dealer about a bad batch of ingots. Hear his complaint and learn what a good apology might look like. It's the world's oldest complaint letter, but it could easily be a modern story.

Just remember, you piss someone off enough, your bad reputation may last for almost 4000 years.

I'm trying to wrap my head around the fact that there are multiple KZbin channels dealing with somebody's complaint letter from 4,000 years ago.

The sun god isn't Samas, it's Šamaš. It's pronounced Shamash. It just bugged me, your video is great 😊

Thanks for letting us know, sorry for the mispronunciation.

Common error for English speakers. To be fair, hearing any bronze age language pronounced correctly (when we even know what the correct pronunciation is) is rare.

a man is not truly dead unless his name is forgotten, somewhere out there ea-nasir is severely confused why he now runs a shady videogame company bearing the first 2 letters of his name
