Excavating Cuneiform Tablets in Iraq with the Girsu Project | Curator's Corner S8 Ep3

The British Museum is currently excavating at the ancient Sumerian city of Girsu, in Southern Iraq. However, most of the Girsu Project's time has been spent, not so much excavating the ancient city itself, but excavating through the spoil heaps (piles of dirt) left behind by French archaeologist over 80 years ago. Within these great mounds of dirt are countless objects, including cuneiform tablets, that were abandoned, and that are currently at risk of being lost forever due to erosion of those spoil heaps.
The Girsu Project is a joint initiative to save endangered heritage sites led by the British Museum, the State Board of Antiquities and Heritage (SBAH) of Iraq, and the J. Paul Getty Trust.

What about Enoch the Scribe? When did he write?

[@mobitouchiha]

Since his existence can’t be verified (same goes for every person in the Bible before Omri) he is a figure of faith and as such can’t be out in such a category. There is a very similar figure in Mesopotamian mythology called Uanna in Sumerian or Adapa in Akkadian. If you accept Enoch being copied after Uanna and Adapa the answer would be that a Sumerian would probably tell you he had been a Sumerian. I can encourage you to read the versions of the Adapa myth. It is fairly easy to read and offers a great picture onto the mindset of the Sumerian and Akkadian culture.

What about Enoch the Scribe? When did he write? Pre-Sumerian?

[@censusgary]

It’s amazing how small these ancient tablets are, when you see one held in a human hand. From the photos I’ve seen, I assumed they were larger (maybe as big as a sheet of modern stationery). But most of those photos were enlarged from life size, I see now. It makes it very challenging to find those little clay nuggets in a big heap of earth.

[@britishmuseum]

Honestly spotting them at all is a whole skill in and of itself. That's why they call Ali 'Mr Brick' - he has a real knack for spotting the tablets, and telling the difference between them, the rubble of mudbricks that would have made up the original building they were housed in, the old mudbricks that were broken up and used as packing for the foundations of that building. Not to mention that the soil and dirt they are mixed up in is also effectively clay. If more people were familiar with excavating cuneiform, we wouldn't be using the phrase 'needle in a haystack' anymore.

[@censusgary]

@@britishmuseum Basically, you’re looking for small dirt clods in a mountain of dirt clods. At least when you have a needle in a haystack, the needle is made of a different material from the hay.

That's such a lovely observation. And really fitting.

It was lovely and refreshing to see Ali and other diggers acknowledged as part of the teams of archaeologists in this short video. The photo of the 'French' archaeology team, like the 'British' teams around the middle East seem to be mostly local people. Ignored in the official reports. Just like the English workmen who did most of the actual digging in 18th and 19th century digs in England. Including, I hate to say our favourite Time Team as I have been told by one 'back room' digger, with a senior digger appearing just for the photo op.

[@lh384]

Great video! Whenever I read about Mesopotamean history, the archaeology mentioned always refers back to those excavations a century ago or more. I never hear about much that's more recent , and I've wonder if the political situation in the region has allowed for continued archaeology. It's good to hear that work is continuing there and that people of Iraq will get the benefit of it.

[@j.l.emerson592]

This video is by far the most informative video that I have seen on the processes of an archaeological dig. (In situ, so to speak) Usually, you only see the more important finds & it's not uncommon that the process is glossed over or even entirely omitted. This is what people who are considering a career in archaeology need to see. The common view is that archaeology is something akin to the Indiana Jones movies... Whereas, it's a much more painstaking process of discovery, recovery, conservation, recording, collation & THEN the final process of explaining the finds. Kudos to whomever decided to do a show & tell on the archaeological process!

[@britishmuseum]

Thanks so much for this. The hope was to try to give a reality as archaeology, at least from a ground level practical level, is so alien to just about everyone. However, if I'm honest, this was not a planned video. It was my spare time while I was there filming something else, as the process was just so fascinating. Which goes some way to explaining why there isn't that much variety in the shots.

[@christianfrommuslim]

It is nice that the tablets are returning to Iraq. However, with the instability of the region, as well as for renown of their culture, it is good that artefacts are spread around the world. I think this for any culture - Greek, Chinese, etc. It is more glory to that culture and people group if their great accomplishments are spread around the world. We are now discovering other ancient cultures in various places which in ways are as rich and fascinating as those of Mesopotamia, Greece, and Rome. But because of the artefacts of the latter are well known, their cultures are more well known and respected. (and of course, writing brings attention to a culture.)

Quick question. Do we know what the Sumerians (Akkadians, Hittites, etc) called the script we now refer to as Cuneiform? For example, in English we call the Latin script the Alphabet. In Welsh we call it 'Y Wyddor' (The principle), and so on. Because they obviously wouldn't have called it Cuneiform themselves?

It blows my mind with the modern translator filling in a Google spreadsheet full of information, that’s pretty much what the tablet itself is, just someone filling in a form for a bureaucracy. If you could go back to 4000BC you could make a similar video ending with the scribe going “I note if it’s fine flour or coarse flour, and record it down here using this cutting edge technology called “writing “

They’re usually translated into English, however all of the symbols must be written in their letter forms before translation. It’s easier to translate those letters from Akkadian/Sumerian/Hittite etc. into a modern language. There’s a lot of literature in French, German and Arabic in addition to the English records. It tends to depend on the research team. For this one, I’d guess both English and Arabic!

So it was a bit complicated to cover in this video, but the French spoil heaps were built pretty much as close to where they were digging as possible. So the context for where the rescued tablets are coming from is pretty much directly under the spoil heaps. So we are getting the context, once we get to the bottom of the spoil heaps, as we can the survey and excavate the administrative centre underneath them.

@@britishmuseum ah I see...these aren't coming from the spoil heaps themselves. I misunderstood. thank you for your reply.

[@nibiruresearch]

Thank you for doing this important work. But apart from the texts, also the images on cylinder seals are important from Sumer. They tell us much more than is previously thought. The main misunderstanding is that some symbols are misinterpreted and therefore we don't understand what the cylinder seals tell us. The eight beamed symbol exists in many variations and it is interpreted as a symbol of the sun. And the crescent moon is seen as a symbol of the moon. Both are wrong. The eight beamed 'star' is the symbol of the planet Nibiru and the crescent moon is the symbol of our planet Earth. We can see on some seals that the Nibiru symbol is in between the seven stars of the Pleiades and the crescent moon. This is an important but completely forgotten, neglected or denied piece of information about our past. In cuneiform texts we often find the eight beamed symbol that means god, heaven or planet. To learn much more about the interpretation of cylinder seals, the cycle of recurring floods, the rebirth of civilizations and its timeline, ancient high technology and alien deities, read the eBook: "what I know about Nibiru". This book answers many of your questions. You can read it on every computer, tablet or smartphone. Search: know nibiru
