The first recorded mention of Greater Syria is in Egyptian annals detailing expeditions to the Syrian coastland to log the cedar, pine, and cypress of the Ammanus and Lebanon mountain ranges in the fourth millennium. Sumer, a kingdom of non-Semitic peoples that formed the southern boundary of ancient Babylonia, also sent expeditions in the third millennium, chiefly in pursuit of cedar from the Ammanus and gold and silver from Cilicia. The Sumerians most probably traded with the Syrian port city of Byblos, which was also negotiating with Egypt for exportation of timber and the resin necessary for mummification. An enormous commercial network linking Anatolia, Mesopotamia, Egypt, the Aegean, and the Syrian coast was developed. The network was perhaps under the aegis of the kingdom of Ebla ("city of the white stones"), the chief site of which was discovered in 1975 at Tall Mardikh, 64 kilometers south of Aleppo. Numerous tablets give evidence of a sophisticated and powerful indigenous Syrian empire, which dominated northern Syria and portions of lower Mesopotamia, Anatolia, and Iran. Its chief rival was Akkad in southern Mesopotamia, which flourished circa 2300 B.C. In addition to identifying another great cultural and political power for the period--and an independent Syrian kingdom at that--the discovery of Ebla has had other important ramifications. The oldest Semitic language was thought to have been Amorite, but the newly found language of Ebla, a variant of Paleo-Canaanite, is considerably older. Ebla twice conquered the city of Mari, the capital of Amurru, the kingdom of the Semitic- speaking Amorites. After protracted tension between Akkad and Ebla, the great king of Akkad, Naram Sin, destroyed Ebla by fire in either 2300 or 2250. Naram Sin also destroyed Arman, which may have been an ancient name for Aleppo India - Simple English Wikipedia the free encyclopedia The Republic of India (Hindi: ) is a country in Asia It is at the center of South Asia India has more than 12 billion Sectarianism and War in Iraq and Syria - Foreign Policy Uzi Rabi is the Director of the Moshe Dayan Center for Middle Eastern and African Studies and a senior researcher at the Center for Iranian Studies both at Tel Aviv CNNcom - Transcripts Return to Transcripts main page CNN 10 Note: This page is continually updated as new transcripts become available If you cannot find a specific segment check back History of Iran - Wikipedia The history of Iran commonly also known as Persia in the Western world is intertwined with the history of a larger region also to an extent known as Greater Iran Why the Arabs dont want us in Syria POLITICO But thanks in large part to Allen Dulles and the CIA whose foreign policy intrigues were often directly at odds with the stated policies of our nation the United Nations News Centre United Nations News Centre with breaking news from the UN News Service Syria - Wikipedia The name Syria is derived from the 8th century BC Luwian term "Sura/i" and the derivative ancient Greek name: Srioi or Sroi both of Culture of Yemen - history people clothing traditions Culture of Yemen - history people clothing traditions women beliefs food customs family To-Z JSTOR: Viewing Subject: History Amount of access 308 Journals in JSTOR Date Range Aboriginal History
