102. Stonecliff Publishing - PARALLELS By Diane E. Wirth A scholarly book detailing the influence of cultures from the middle east on Mexico and Central America. http://www.stonecliffpublishing.com/

PARALLELS Mesoamerican and Ancient Middle Eastern Traditions by Diane E. Wirth Left: Right: Portrait of a beardless king from the Maya site of Palenque. Natives of the Americas cannot grow full beards. Then why did the man on the left have one? Did ancient civilizations travel to the New World before Columbus arrived in 1492? Traditional archaeological teachings say "no," but evidence to the contrary is mounting. Now, Diane E. Wirth has assembled and analyzed an exhaustive collection of evidence that reveals the stunning parallels between Pre-Columbian Mesoamerican civilizations and the cultures of the ancient Middle East. In PARALLELS , she examines the similarities between Middle Eastern traditions, beliefs and iconography and those of Mesoamerican cultures. PARALLELS brings out in the open the long debated and very controversial subject of isolationism (Bering Strait theory) and diffusionism (theory of trans-oceanic voyages) regarding the influence of the ancient Middle East on the Western Hemisphere. It is a bold, fascinating, and reader-friendly study full of information on the plausibility of foreigners from the Middle East influencing New World cultures. Included in its 8-1/2 x 11" soft covers with perfect binding are 211 pages, 290 illustrations, 824 endnotes, 9 tables and 517 sources in the bibliography.

Pick a Region Middle East The term Israel refers to the territory ruled by the various Jewish monarchies in ancient times. The term was utilized again when a Jewish state was created in 1947. The specific borders of Palestine have varied under the various empires but essentially has referred to the area comprising modern-day Israel, Jordan, the West Bank and Gaza Strip. It is this competition for control of territory that has formed the crux of the Jewish-Palestinian conflict over the last 100 years. Jews have lived in the area called Palestine since about 2000 BC. The first Jewish monarchy was founded in 1030 BC under King Saul, and furthered under Kings David and Solomon. In 950 BC, Solomon built the First Temple. In 586 King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylonia captured Jerusalem, destroyed the temple and forced the people into exile. In 538 the Persian king Cyrus the Great gained control and allowed the Jews to return. The Second Temple was completed in 515. Alexander the Great of Macedon (Greece) defeated the Persians (333) and established control of Egypt and Palestine. In 63 BC, the Romans took Palestine as a Roman province. The Jews revolted against the Romans in 66 AD. The rebellion was crushed and the Second Temple was destroyed in 70 AD. In 135 AD the Jewish population of Palestine was dispersed throughout the ancient world.

109. The State Hermitage Museum: Collection Highlights from the Sumerian town of Uruk is regarded as one of the most ancient written documents, while important material on the history of the ancient Sumerian and http://www.hermitagemuseum.org/html_En/03/hm3_5_1.html

A remarkable collection of cuneiform inscriptions, reliefs, pieces of small statuary and applied art represent the culture of the Sumerians, founders of a civilization between the rivers Tigris and Euphrates; their successors, the Akkadians and Babylonians, who created the powerful Assyrian Empire; and the peoples of the ancient Mediterranean. The earliest items come from the late 4th to early 3rd millenium BC. A group of painted pottery found in a necropolis at the settlement of Susa demonstrates the skill of craftsmen from Elam, home of the earliest civilization on the territory of Iran. A stone tablet with a pictographic inscription (late 4th to early 3rd millenium BC) from the Sumerian town of Uruk is regarded as one of the most ancient written documents, while important material on the history of the ancient Sumerian and Akkadian civilizations is provided by a number of pieces such as the cuneiform archive of a temple of the Sumerian goddess Bau at Lagash (28th-23rd centuries BC); documents associated with the 3rd dynasty of Gudea (c. 11th century BC); and economic documents for the town of Ur during the 3rd dynasty (11th-10th centuries BC).
