May / 15 / 2009 / 07:48
by George Smith, 1977This is the reprint edition made for the Secret Doctrine Reference Series of Helena Blavatsky's the "SECRET DOCTRINE" and is becoming increasingly rare.
Containing the description of the creation, the fall of man, the deluge, the tower of Babel, The Times of the Patriarchs, and Nimrod; Babylonian Fables, and Legend of the Gods; from the Cuneiform inscriptions. Translated from the cuniform tablets (Circa 3000 BC) unearthed at Nineva. This far more complex rendition parallels the creation epics of India and Persia to the dismay of dogmatic theologians. That it is the predecessor of the Old Testament Bible is inescapable.
Some topics include: Babylonian and Assyrian Literature, The Doscovery of the Genesis Legends, Chaldean Legends, Babylonian Mythology and accounts of creation, The Sin of the God Zu. Fragments of miscellaneous texts , The Great Deluge / Flood and more.....
