1. Nineveh (Akkadian: Ninua; Aramaic: ܢܝܢܘܐ; Hebrew: נינוה, Nīnewē; Arabic: نينوى, Naīnuwa), an "exceeding great city", as it is called in the
Book of Jonah, lay on the eastern bank of the Tigris in ancient Akkadia across the river from the modern-day major city of Mosul, Iraq.
2. Kish (KIŠKI' cuneiform:?; Sumerian:kiš; Akkadian:?)is modern Tell al-Uhaymir, (Babil Governorate, Iraq), and was an ancient city of Sumer.
Kish is located some 12 km east of Babylon, and 80 km south of Baghdad.
3. Nippur (URUEN.LIL ,,⇸; Sumerian: Nibru; Akkadian: Nibbur), from the Sumerian for 'lord wind' (Enlil), is modern ? in Afak Al Qadisyah
Governorate, Iraq. Nippur was one of the most ancient (some historians date it back to 5262 BCE) of all the Sumerian cities. It was the special
seat of the worship of the Sumerian god, Enlil, ruler of the cosmos subject to Anu alone.
4. Ur (URU? &#x;&#x;; Sumerian:urim; Akkadian:?) is modern Tell el-Mukayyar, Iraq, and was a city in ancient Sumer. Once a coastal city near
the mouth of the then Euphrates river on the Persian Gulf, Ur is now well inland. Currently, Ur is south of the Euphrates on its right bank, 16
kilometres (9.9 mi) from Nasiriyah, Iraq and close to the site of ancient Eridu. The site is marked by the ruins of a ziggurat, still largely intact,
and by settlement mounds. The ziggurat of Ur was a temple of Nanna, the moon deity in Sumerian mythology, and has two stages constructed
from brick: in the lower stage the bricks are joined together with bitumen, in the upper stage they are joined with mortar. The temple was built in
2100 B.C. during the reign of Ur-Nammu. The temple stands 70 feet (21 m) high.
5. Nimrud is an ancient Assyrian city located south of Nineveh on the river Tigris. The city covered an area of around 16 square miles (41 km2).
Ruins of the city are found in modern day Iraq, some 30 kilometres (19 mi) southeast of Mosul. In ancient times the city was called Kalhu. The
Arabs called the city Nimrud after Nimrod, a legendary hunting hero.
6. Uruk (URUUNUG ⌷—, Sumerian: unug; Akkadian: uruk), from the Akkadian rendering of the Sumerian toponym 'unug', is modern Warka
(Arabic: وركاء), Iraq. Uruk was an ancient city of Sumer and later Babylonia, situated east of the present bed of the Euphrates river, on the
ancient Nil canal, some 30 km east of As-Samawah, Al-Muthannā, Iraq. The modern name Iraq is thought to be derived from the name Uruk. At
its height c 2900 BCE, Uruk probably had 50,000 - 80,000 residents living in 6 km 2 of walled area; the largest city in the world at its time.
Are these the cities where the first of the Biblical writings took place? Yet, most of us believe what we believe because that's what we choose to
believe, what we have been conditioned to believe, what we are taught to believe. However, is what we believe true simply because we choose
to believe it. It is not until we are presented with, what appears to be other credible facts do we change our minds, often at a high cost,
sometime having to admit we were previously incorrect.
However, it has been said that admission of one's incorrectness is the true sign of a healthy, therefore well adjusted and secure individual. I, do
not claim to be that person, however, I can claim that I seek truth wherever, and that which makes spiritual, and logical sense. Therefore, I have
learned to admit that I have been incorrect in some of my past perspectives.
For most of my life I was taught that the Hebrew Bible cannon was written by Hebrew. In my research I have discovered this is not necessarily
correct, but rather, the Bible we have today is one of many "versions" of an ancient text first discovered in the Land of UR. It was brought out of
Samaria by Father Abraham where it was rewritten to include Hebrew names and titles.
It appears that the original law was given to whomever in a vision, a universal language, if you will, from the source of our being whom I choose
to call "God." It was then shared with others as it spread verbally in song until it was written down by each individual group of ancient peoples. It
also appears that, at sometime in our history this cosmic connection may have been a group consciousness. However, this
group consciousness was severed by a dark force wishing to proclaim its deity, rather than to acknowledge the deity of its Ultimate Creator.
It is my hope that you will take the time to explore what is presented here, to ask that source of knowledge to reveal to you its origin, to help you
understand the questions mankind has asked himself from the time of this severance; Who am I? Where did I came from? But much more
importantly, Where am I going to from here?
Here is a video series called "Who Wrote the Bible" that you, too, may find interesting. (video 1 of 12 HERE)
Who gave the Samaritans knowledge of their own creation? The Law of One gives us some detail of creation (HERE), however, when it refers to
The Orion Group are these the Anunnaki? (video HERE)
