Who Were the Babylonians? by Bill T. Arnold
Requirements: PDF Reader, 1.3 Mb
Overview: Arnold draws on current Assyriological data to trace the geopolitical realities behind literary references to Babylonians by ancient classical historians such as Herodotus and Berossus and by authors of the Bible. Much is known about the material culture of Mesopotamia, he says, but most of the literature has been written by specialists for each other. He has combed through that literature, focusing on Babylonia, to provide a general survey for students of history, archaeology, philology, and the Bible. He begins with Babylonia before the Babylonians came—the Old Accadian and neo-Sumerian periods—and proceeds through Hammurabi’s empire, the fall of Babylon, and the neo-Babylonian period.
