Chapter ElevenCreation Connections
As has been repeatedly said throughout this work, scholars now agree that both the biblical
and Babylonian accounts of creation are borrowed from Sumerian tales and as we have seen, it is
also undeniable that traces of the Sumerian story can still be found within the general narrative of
the bible. As we have previously noted, it all lies in the translation. The example of Hebrew word
‘Rakia’ easily translates to both ‘firmament’ interpreted by Christians as Heaven, and ‘Hammered
Bracelet’ which adequately describes the asteroid belt.
These translational errors can also be seen in the biblical account of the creation of Eve from a
rib of Adam. As aptly demonstrated by Sitchin: In the original Sumerian account Eve (Ti-Amat) is
created from the ti of Adam. Ti can be translated as both ‘rib’ and as ‘life’. So in fact the Biblical
account may well be a play on words and the correct translation may actually be that Eve was
created from the life of Adam, essentially his “essence” which also fits nicely with the Sumerian
account and strongly hints at genetic engineering and the manipulation of DNA. ‘Nachash’ has
been translated as serpent and interpreted as a snake by Christians yet we have seen that it also
means ‘He who solves Secrets’ and “He who knows Metals’ and was in fact an Epithet of the
Sumerian God Enki.
We have also seen Sitchins claim that the tale of the serpent, the tree of life and the expulsion
from Eden were known about in Sumer is also undeniable as it is documented and depicted on
cylinder seals as shown in fig.105. Even the name Eden can be seen as an obvious reference to
the Anunnaki medical center in Mesopotamia mentioned in Sumerian texts which was called the
E.DIN. And again it is there in the biblical account of Adam which can be seen as an obvious
derivation of the Sumerian account of the Adamu created by Ninmah through genetic
manipulation and even inclusion of clay in the successful result. The number of ‘coincidences’
are just too great too ignore. The Sumerians also claim that the Earth and the Hammered Heaven
was created by a Celestial body with a vast elongated orbit.
Sitchin believes that the civilization of South America was in fact the civilization that was said
to have been established in the ‘third region’ by those based in the Persian Gulf – the Gods, with
Sumer being the first region, Egypt the second region, while the forth region, the Sinai Peninsula,
was ‘retained by the Gods’.
According to his calculations, the deity known as Thoth, (also known as Ningishzidda and
Hermes) ruled Egypt for a time until he was deposed by his brother Ra, (also known as Marduk).
