The Table of Nations
“Enmerkar and the Lord of Aratta."
Once upon a time there was no snake, there was no scorpion,
There was no hyena, there was no lion,
There was no wild dog, no wolf,
There was no fear, no terror,
Man had no rival.
In those days, the lands of Subur (and) Hamazi,
Harmony-tongued Sumer, the great land of the decrees of princeship,
Uri, the land having all that is appropriate,
The land Martu, resting in security,
The whole universe, the people in unison
To Enlil in one tongue [spoke].
(Then) Enki, the lord of abundance (whose) commands are trustworthy,
The lord of wisdom, who understands the land,
The leader of the gods,
Endowed with wisdom, the lord of Eridu
Changed the speech in their mouths, [brought] contention into it,
Into the speech of man that (until then) had been one.”
Linguists tell us that the oldest of the three language groups is the Egyptian Khem.It originated in central or north eastern Africa where it was known as Kham,or the Hebrew Ham.It was the ancient African word for black,and denoted a black race.It became synonomous with "black land," due to the black rich soil deposited along the banks of the NileThe annual flooding of the Nile made farming possible,which the Egyptian economy was very much dependant on.At one time the name Khem identified all of northern Africa,at which time Egypt was known as Mitsr,the Biblical Mitzraim.It was still known by that name in the 15th century bce according to the Amarna letters as Rib-Addi the ruler of Byblos wrote:
Now I cannot enter the land of Mitsru ;
I am old and I suffer of a serious disease in my own flesh.
It has become common among some historians to deny the black influence on Egypt,and to make the claim that the original Egyptians were not negroid,and thus disassociate Egypt from the rest of Africa.There is,however,no denying that the indiginates of Egypt were black.They were Khemites,as the Bible states,and as archeology shows.The skeletons and skulls of the Ancient Egyptians clearly reflect that they were a Negroid people with features very similar to those of modern Black Nubians and other people of the Upper Nile and of East Africa.The Egyptians had always used “ kmt” to refer to themselves,and was represented by charred wood.The parent language,once referred to as Hamitic-Semitic,is no longer accepted by linguists,who prefer to use Afroasiatic.The Hamitic branch includes Berber,Cushitic,Chadic and Coptic.

The Aryans were decendents of Javan,and included the place names given in the Bible.They originally came down from Armenia near ancient Urarta(Ararat) near the area believed to have been where the ark landed.From the Iranian plateau,one group migrated to India and the other across northern Mesopotamia and eventually crossed the Mediterranean Sea to the Greek isles and Rome.According to historians,they were one splinter group of the Khalidu,followers of the Khaldis,a conglomeration of gods,who gave their name to the Khaldees(Chaldeans).The Assyrians called them "People of the Nairi",from the more ancient Nairi tribal union in Armenia,from around 6,000 BCE.The name Khalidu is believed to have originated from kasdiym,an ancient name for the area of the later Babylonians.It has it's roots in the word kisad,the name for an area between the Tigris and Euphrates river where the soil was extremely fertile,while the south is marshy and the north mountainous.The kisad,or bank,was within the confines of Edin.Inscriptions from Lagish call the entire district Gu-Edinna,the Sumerian equivalent of the Semitic Kisad Edini,the bank of Eden.It was a virtual garden with an abundance of water,and the most populated region of Babylonia.Edin,then was a real place,and could be described as a garden or paradise,compared to the rest of Mesopotamia.It was the area where the Tigris and Euphrates come the closest to each other and received it's fertile soil from the flooding of the rivers.Ancient texts claim that the garden was in Dilmun,thought to have been the modern Baharan.Archeologists have discovered that the island was once attached to the main land,and the Persian gulf once reached farther inland.Linguists use the development of languages to trace the beginning of the early humans.They have discovered that the Semites and Hamites once belonged to one language group.The Aryan language sprang from the Semitic language indicating the Aryans were a splinter group of the Semites.That is more or less what the Bible claims.The idea that the Aryans immigrated from the Greek isles to Anatolia and eventually India is now outdated.The Yavanas of India are a racial group,but also a religious group.The name refers to the Greeks who adhere to the Abrahamic faith.Those Greeks came to India sometimes after Alexander the great arrived in India in the 4th century BCE.According to historical sources:
"The first known invaders of India were Aryans (also mentioned sometimes as Indo-Aryans).
It is believed that the Aryans arrived in north India somewhere from Iran
and southern Russia at around 1500 B. C.
The Aryans are referred to in Indian history as fair skinned people
who pushed the dark skinned Dravidians southward."
It follows that the non-abrahamic religious (Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists,

Shinto and so on) are idolators (according to Abrahamics), not for

having statues in their temples, but for worshipping or revering

beings that are not YHVH. Likewise, many Hindus have mutual feeling

and have a similar term by calling such followers of the Abrahamic

religions as yavanas and mlecchas.
These Aryans had been living in Iran and Armenia for a very long time before they invaded India.Being connected with Abraham,they are also connected with the Bible,suggesting that there must be some truth in the Biblical Table of Nations.The ancient Greeks never called themselves "Yavanas",or Aryans.It was always a name that has been connected to religious groups rather than a seperate nation.The Ionians migrated into Greece from Anatolia around 1,000 BCE,near the same time as the Dorians.Historians tell us they were the creators of Mycenean Culture.That would indicate that the Mycenae culture began in the near east rather that the Greek isles.They were not readily accepted into Greek society because of their relationship with the Persians.The Yavanas were not ancient Greeks,and the name Aryan did not originate with the Greeks.I'm sure the Aryan brotherhood will not be happy to learn they are more closely related to the Semites,the Iranians and the people of India,than they are the Greeks or Germans.If Linguists continue making new discoveries,the brotherhood won't have anyone left to hate,without climbing their own family tree.
