... ), the first permanent secretary of the Academie des Inscriptions, who is properly described as l'un des savants les plus illustres que la France ait jamais produit.(1 ) In a series of monumental studies published in the acts of this academy, Fréret foresaw the immense advances that could be made in the study of ancient history by combining linguistics, mythology, chronology, geography, astronomy, and the history of science in general, taking into account the information that was becoming available concerning the civilizations of Mesopotamia, Persia, India, and China. He realized that with this material conclusions could be obtained that not only are revolutionary, but also particularly reliable. This point is ...

135. Remarks on Dr. Courville's Seminar Presentation, "The Albrecht/Glueck-Aharoni/Rothenberg Confrontation" [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... the other hand, I beg to stress that every place and/or country mentioned in my paper has been visited by me- excavations at Timna repeatedly, under the guidance of Benno Rothenberg- and every quotation checked in the original, whether English, Hebrew, Greek, or Egyptian hieroglyphs- the last under the guidance of a foremost linguist and ancient Egyptian language expert. The fundamental error of Dr. Courville's statement appears in his Introduction (p . 1). Concerning "characteristic Edomite pottery style found throughout the Negeb," Dr. Courville writes: "To Glueck . . . this pottery belonged into Iron II, datable conventionally to the period 900-600 B.C ...

... numbers.(7 ) Present-day Iraq and Iran are regions of southwest Asia where early forms of writing arose before 3000 B.C ., primarily for the purpose of recording numbers and commodities. Seven sites in Iraq have yielded numerous cuneiform tablets and five sites in Iran, Susa (Shushan) in particular, are the sources of a linguistically unrelated script, proto-Elamite, that is about as old as proto-Sumerian. Both scripts relied essentially on identical special notations to represent numbers and measures so that tablets bearing numerical records and accounts are decipherable.(8 ) Hebrew writers of the Middle Ages were interested in the matter of permutations. This was largely due to the connection between this ...

138. Horizons [Journals] [SIS Review]
... own contribution is essentially a response to Dr Hewsen's paper in Kronos I.3 . The overall presentation of this piece will not gain it great credence with Anatolian specialists: Luckerman offers some interesting and in part quite acceptable proposals, but is unable to provide satisfactory supporting evidence, and the article is especially marred by solecisms in the fields of linguistics, comparative religion and nomenclature, as well as by an over-reliance on Hewsen's Kronos paper and a limited bibliography which shows little acquaintance with specialist journals or standard works. - Egyptologists, too, will be justifiably dismayed at the appearance in Courville's paper of such personages as "Hrior", "Namareth", "Harmhab" and " ...
139. Ramessides, Medes and Persians by Emmet J. Sweeney (Reviewed) [Journals] [SIS Review]
... contributions to our understanding of the ancient Middle East (which are many, even if sometimes challengeable), will almost certainly find Sweeney's work commendable and worthwhile for this reason alone. Be warned, however, that the reader is expected to be able to assimilate a bewildering array of often none-too-closely defined (or dated) ethnic and/or linguistic groups. The list, in alphabetical order, includes Achaemenids (= Persians?), Akkadians (= Assyrians? [1 ]) , Ashguza (= Sa-gaz, Ga-as-ga-as, Ashkenaz etc., all essentially Scythian?), Assyrians ( 'Old', Imperial', Middle' and Neo' ), Babylonians ( ' ...
