Sumerian Anunnaki, Cuneiform Tablets & Ancient Aliens Theory
with Joshua Free
PART VI
(25:00)Joshua Free (continued): …most people’s understanding even today of Mesopotamia, Babylon, or Egypt for that matter – its interpreted usually through the traditional biblical perspective, and usually in a ‘negative’ light. But more importantly, the cuneiform writing system is what really changed everything…
Royce: That’s what Zecharia Sitchin said.
Joshua: Well, yeah, it really did. It was the original, actual writing system. I mean, people have been painting on walls and trying to be artistic for some time, but in the way that I had just described it in terms of semantics and comprehension and meaning, this was revolutionary.
What it also enabled them to do was
actually manipulate the meanings of
things – and this is something now that
has happened since the inception of
writing and this is how history has
changed, this is how news is altered, but
it is basically getting people to think in
terms of language. The people who have
been existing prior to that, before occupying
cities and were hunter-gatherer
types – they were seeing reality in a way
we different than what we could today
because we see reality based on our language
and our understanding of ‘things’.Especially in the ‘western world’ we are likely to give a kid a picture dictionary. You know, “A is for Apple”, here is an ‘apple’, here is the letter ‘A’, here is the word “apple”. And we continue from that kind of set program – we continue to observe and take on ‘meaning’ of our world as we mature through our childhood and age. And it is not until we come across something that we do not previously have a ‘folder-file’ for that we are led to ‘question’ again, or we try to fit it into one of our other preexisting or prearranged ways of looking at something, one of our other folders: ‘well this is just that’. Or if it is really that anomalous to us, then it does not compute at all, it does not exist, we just kind of let it alone.
In Mesopotamia, in ancient times, this
writing system, it enabled for the first
time, for ‘history’ to be brought into
‘language’. Rather than an oral tradition
or people having to be focused on
survival; if you can get along in the world
and gather enough food and stay close
enough to the fire, you’ll be just fine.Well, civilization brought an enabling of more than mere survival that before, they didn’t have time for. The Ice Age had now receded, it was warmed up, people were able to take an interest in fashion and the development of cultures and the arts. All of these things were also tied into the religious systems. And we talk about “religion” today and its hum-drum, everyone has their own religion and yada-yada and we try to be accepting of it. In ancient times, religion was an ‘institution’, it wasn’t just a matter of ‘well everyone believes their own thing and we’ll just get along’, these temples were built toward specific deities or Sky Gods or Anunnaki that made their presence, that had stationed themselves there.
And so everyone of
that city or part of the tradition would
angle more of their prayers and attention
and their focus, which way they stood
when they prayed and such, toward that.
And there you have the inception of
religion.(29:30)
It is interesting to interpret things now in terms of ‘monotheism’, because even in Babylon when that was attempted it was not truly ‘monotheism’. One of the younger generation of Anunnaki [Marduk], it was his time to rule – because this was all cyclical with them, based on what we would call the ‘zodiacal ages’ – but the time of Aries came and it was his time to rule. All of the politics and drama involved with the Anunnaki kept this from happening.
In spite of them, and our recollection of them as ‘gods’, they in themselves, the tablets report, that they had feuds among themselves regarding how things should be; decisions on how to deal with humanity and so forth. So, in the case of Babylon, you have the home of the first writing system. Marduk, who is the son of Enki, who is the son of Anu, and in most conventional Sumerian religion, Enki’s brother Enlil basically viewed as supreme by the Enlilites. It is the sons and daughters of Enlil that are given all of the attention. . .

Just like ‘language’, which also, language
and writing really originated in Mesopotamia
– that can affect people as well,
interpreting the world through a specific
set of eyes in language or culture.
This is something that changes dramatically,
when we move away from a civilization
or culture that is dependent on
‘picture-writing’. Yes, they are putting
something down, but it is not a literary
tradition. An eagle is basically represented
by a picture of an eagle and so forth. It
is when it changes into language and
writing, all of the words take on meaning
and context for them to apply as a
language – for a person to use it and
another person to actually receive it and
comprehend its meaning and have it be
the same.

Over time, given the expansion of the population, it has bloomed like a tree. So, now you have all of these branches with the elements but its much easier and coherent to go back to the beginning and rather than look at it through a certain set of eyes, for example being from a Celtic tradition or being indoctrinated into a specific branch of Christianity – rather than look at it through those eyes, with those glasses on, or try to work itself backwards, which is a rigorous task at best; it’s much easier to go back to the beginning and remove all the filters and blocks that we have to receiving that knowledge in what I call “self-honestly” and then if necessary, be able to take a look through time and see how it reflects, rather than try to piece together all these miniscule connections and pieces of the puzzle. I think that’s already been done and this fragmented message is what we have operated under for so long and if any-thing we have reached the limitations of that.
