Great Beasts of Legend: Anzu the Lion Headed Eagle

[@heathermcgehee7653]

Thank you, once again, Penn Museum, for making these wonderful lectures available to we mere, uneducated yayhoos. I assure you, finding a decent lecture on early Mesopotamia that doesn't include Zachariah Sitchin (sp?) is refreshing. I've watched this particular lecture at least 15 times

Three questions from the audience, only? That's it?! I have so many and would love to learn more from his other videos. If anything, I just want to remark on how the speaker kept me on the edge of my seat when Ea's plan began to unfold and the meaning behind his scheme took shape. It blew me away to know that so long ago, storytellers were thinking of plot twists and loop holes comparable to the clever tricks writers come up with today. One would expect literature to be much more primitive the farther back we go but there is something oddly familiar about the structure and format of these captivating tales.

[@jeremybegley6492]

I'm interested in the similarities between the story of Lugalbanda being left in a cave on his way to war, and the story of Philoctetes, written by Sophocles more than 1,000 years later. Both heroes are left in a cave by their peers on the way to a major seige/war and later catch up to help win. Both Aegean/Mesopotamian folk tales.

[@kevina6587]

much of the greek pantheon and mythic tales derive from the earlier more eastern cultures, a bit like christianity derives from paganism and so is largely a continuation of that tradition which is rather ironic.

[@DamienZshadow]

Comparative mythology is interesting like that. Did the previous story inspire the other, continue from it, or is there an inherent tendency for these tropes and archetypes to appear in tales from all cultures? Without a direct link, it is hard to say one or the other. My favorite comparative mythology is mother and father progenitors deities that are torn apart or killed by their offspring and made to become the sky and the earth. It makes me wonder if sometime early in human history, before migration, our humble small population broke apart from a few tribes rebelling against a parent-like ruler or patriarch and matriarch.

[@lullabi3234]

+kevina6587 spot on. I feel like scholars in Comparative Mythology are given too-tight constraints for the observations which are drawn.

The higher sea levels shown on his first map confirm another amazing fact: the Red Sea was also higher. If you read Exodus and try to make the timeline match modern geography, its an imperfect fit. But move the sea shore closer to Goshen, and now its an easy fit.

[@enkisonofanu2301]

During the time of the Gutians invasion, Lagash was spared and became a satellite city, thus the lack of mention in the list of ruling cities is obvious, the city was perhaps considered an enemy of the latter Sumerian dynasties and the change of the fortune of Anzu was by the Sumerians which was emphasised by the Babylonians. Just a thought.

[@tobystewart4403]

I have read the available texts from Lagash in the period preceding Sargons rise, as they deal with the earliest legal proclamations of human rights known to exist. Now these texts seem to me to describe injustice resulting from monopolies on river front access. Others may read the text differently, however to me the text describes a system of human exploitation that arose due to overpopulation and increasingly vicious social divisions. Not only are the rights of women and children proclaimed as protected by the legal reforms in Lagash, the practice of using blind people to pump water was condemned. Now, this interests me, because Herotodus said that the Scythian's would simply blind their slaves, and leave them in tents to churn milk and weave cloth. Irrigation, the engine of the Mesopotamian economy, required water to be "lifted" by human driven pumps, from the river to the irrigation ditches that spread out from the river. One suspects that the rulers were blinding their "subjects" to stop them running away, as life as a human pump was surely tedious. In any case, the legal reforms speak of huge social unrest at emerging caste systems that were offending the moral conscience of the people. Lagash was the flashpoint. After Lagash, and the rise of law in the world of men, we see the rise of Sargon, the first king of many cities. I ask myself, how does Sargon rise? How does this low born cup bearer to the ruling caste rise, and why are his reforms welcome throughout the many cities of old Sumer? Sargon is the first king. I find no literature beforehand that speaks of kingdoms, only cities with rulers, and the people of the wilderness. You become king by your own hand, by bringing law to the people. It was Napoleons way, and Caeser's, too. What law did Sargon have to bring, to unite the people of Sumer, but the reforms of Lagash? I see the manifest disdain for Lagash, in the later records, as being an expression of fear at the echo of caste revolt and rebellion, which would naturally have terrified the new heirs of a rich, and increasingly overpopulated and rebellious, empire.

Wonder if there's any connection between Sumerian God Anzu and Abkhazian God Anzwa?

[@kidu9618]

Could we understand ANZU's name as AN- sky and ZU, knowledge ? In this case, Anzu would be an intermediate between the god ANU and the human beings : he would be the guardian of ANU's divine knowledge. This would explain why the ruler in La figure aux plumes has two feathers on his head : he has the custody of birds divine wisdom, knowledge. Thank you very much Mr Tinney for this interesting lecture.

[@lullabi3234]

I like your break-down, but is that what -Zu means? How about in like AB-ZU? What would "AB" be, like Water, maybe? Then "KI-ZU" could be Earth Knowledge, and "EN-ZU" could be Air Knowledge...I'd enjoy that break-down!

[@kidu9618]

I do not have the keys, I only know "a grasp of cuneiform" but what I have understood thanks to René Labat and his Manuel d'épigraphie akkadienne is that AB means "father" so AB-GAL (the fabulous creatures half fish, half men who came to Sumer sent by ENKI) means litteraly "great father" and AB-ZU could signify "father of the knowledge". When you know that ENKI, the "lord of the Earth" is the civilizing god in the Sumerian pantheon, it makes sense. EN-ZU (combination I am not aware of, but I am no specialist) could mean "lord of the knowledge" because EN means lord, ruler... The old pictogramme ZU is a triangle with a sort of ladder inside. Knowledge is clearly bound to climbing a mountain ! The BUZUR-ABGAL (wise) is drawn as a head (SAG) crossed by a ladder, one can understand therefore that the ladder is the symbol of knowledge seen as an ascension. The symbol is stlll alive in masonry for example.

[@kidu9618]

One more "detail", BUZUR means "secret". The BUZUR-ABGAL is the "great father of the secret"...

[@kidu9618]

About ENZU... In Les inscriptions de Sumer et d'Akkad, F.Thureau-Dangin translated in French the stele of the vultures (La stèle des vautours) and he mentions Enzu's big net, p.33 (le grand filet d'Enzu,). It is on the web. The net is a tool for hunting, fishing etc... but it is also the metaphore for grid-pattern, the base of the methodic organization of a territory and a society. The net is a symbol of power, of domination seen as strength but also as knowledge, science. It is associated to Enlil (p.31of the same book) and to Shamash in the Etana legend in which the snake complains because the eagle killed his babies "Shamash, your net is the vast Earth". Knowledge (ZU) is logically bound to the net (SA or ŠUŠ-GAL), therefore ENZU's weapon is logically a net.

[@AngelicVexation]

The net can also represent a “tight nit” community. As we are all connected one way or another

[@AngelicVexation]

Also possibly the ROK from 40 days 40 nights of sin bad. Anzu being able to breathe fire and water. RoK being attributed to the Phoenix. And quite possibly the chimera from Greek.

[@michelebriere9569]

I think the part man-part beast creatures are totemic remnants of pre-deity times when the people were still animist. Each deity has an animal with them. I think the anthropomorphic images of gods slowly separated from their original elemental forms of animals, and the animals were kept with them as some kind of 'power' representation. The bull, being a form of An, is represented as a chimara of An with a human face, and the body of a bull, says how strong he is as he fights off Anzu.

I am from Iran, I wanted to tell a story from Ferdowsi's Shahnameh, which has become a reality today with my discoveries and some archaeologists in the past. The son of Marduk, the ancient god, named Shah Zahhak or Ajidhak, who sits on the throne after killing Marduk and rules for 1000 years. . He must have heard it, so what do I want to add to it? I found signs of coins, seals, etc., which are undoubtedly related to 1,300 to 3,000 years BC. Maybe they will help you. All the symbols are only Satan and that's it. Shah Zahak, a man sometimes an antichrist with one eye and a snake on his shoulder, has become such a joke in this era that there was no place where I did not find a sign of him on a grave or a temple after knowing the signs.

Amazing speaker. My backgroynd is metaphysics n i can tell that the professor had his reincarnation there. Now being said i ll give few confirmation of what i can see. The twisted plot to rewrite history was correct. Also, for those wanted to see this story in actions, its a combo of movies Avatar (by Cameron) n the god of egypt (by alex proyas) n read badga veda text. N perhaps u ll learn that "destiny tablet" is the destiny stone at the royal uk possession. It belonged to lord Shiva thats the Anu naga. The lion race held nuetral genetic n creation template while the war between the serpent n bird race fought to rule till today. The cosmo representing each race has to do with the star system where they originated. The bird "biting the bull man" means the bird race powering the bull race-alpha centurion race that arrived on earth. When this race arrived, they were already gene composed of lyran, bull, serpent. They ruled the entire planet. Look at story of Odin n the language in which is ancient tamil (souther india) language. Which story came 1st? I would say Odin 1st n he was here to genetically creating various star seeds..Sirius, cynus, orion. Modern scholar would argued that humanity came out of "africa" but its not true.

Yes the sky writing, "casting" spells, etc..that he said are correct. How? To better understand, one must possess such power to access them. The truth is out there but still we need to filter out. The Rigveda is good source to compare the Sumer too. Eventually we ll discover that the original jews came from Scotland n not current isreal state in middle east.

Everything you said is crazy nonsense. I hope nobody takes you at your word. Your loopy crazy nuts lunatic psychiatric disorder is interfear get with reality. You have no idea what your going on about ...yes humans came out of Africa. Yes evolution is real. Yes, in science there is cosmology. If you deny these your ignorant ....or just crazy.

How about you translate gods to planets. Stuff might make more sense. √ out The Electric Universe. Long Live Velikovsky!

[@tobystewart4403]

I think you miss his point entirely, which is a pity. It is a rather subtle argument, but he does state it explicitly, and in my view he makes his case. That is, the same characters are adopting different roles in the myths that are presented to reinforce the legitimacy of different regimes at different times. The character of Anzu is subject to political editorial manipulation. It is not a fixed story, nor are the motives or outcomes fixed. They are used as tools in the political life of the day. Now this is very boring and anti-woo, because it forces us to accept that story and myth have no real claim to unchanging veracity through the ages, and so they are simply not worth much, as testament to factual events. The best we can do, when searching for truth and history in myth, is to try and filter what is manifestly political theatre from that which is rather "archetypal" symbolism, or shared spiritual beliefs that are chanted and sung down the ages, in the vedic tradition. Dr Kinney is doing an admirable job at this task, and it isn't fair to judge him as close minded to whatever celestial origin theory folks may wish to believe. He is just demonstrating some disciplined analysis of the evidence available. Depending on your taste, this is better stuff than the best of the woo. And I like me some woo, for sure. Who doesn't?

This guy managed to turn an interesting topic into a very boring seminar. A tip to academics... put your egos aside with your long winded admiration of your own voices and get to the point.

By paying close attention you'll find Gods and Monsters in most of the Graphs carrying a bag in one hand. Now, go to Egypts pictures graphs and you'll find Gods and Monsters carrying the same identical bag... Go to Göbekli Tepe and you'll find that exact bag at the top of carving. 11,000 bc 7,000 bc 5-6,000 bc... all the same carved by the same?????

I've seen presentations on this theme also. There's something there.

Keep bombing the Force, from behind our force field keep up the attack untill his shield weakens, then deliver the nuclea blow. Anzu's shield collapsed and the blow was delivered.
