  • A Rejoinder to Professor George A. Barton

    Albert T ClayARTICLEJournal of the American Oriental…1925

    FOR YEARS I have been endeavoring show that certain theories and claims popularized and advanced by Professor Barton concerning Semitic origins should be abandoned. One of these, formulated years ago in Germany, is that the Arabian desert emitted its surplus population of hungry tribesmen in successive eruptions or waves upon the adjoining territory, and that it was upon this periodic disgorging or spilling over of savages from the desert into ne…

  • The So-Called Fertile Crescent and Desert Bay

    Albert T ClayARTICLEJournal of the American Oriental…1924

    SOME YEARS AGO a geographical term was coined in connection with the description of Syria and Mesopotamia in ancient times, known as the fertile crescent, the shores of the desert which has since been extensively used in text books of ancient history. Prof. James H.

  • The Antiquity of Babylonian Civilization

    Albert T ClayARTICLEJournal of the American Oriental…1921

    SOME YEARS AGO it was suggested that the scribe of Nabonidus (555-538) made a mistake in stating that Naram-Sin lived 3200 years earlier; that instead, he should have written 2200 years. This would make the date of Naram-Sin about 2750 B. C. Although there were reasons for reducing the older figure, many Assyriologists, including the writer, felt that until conclusive evidence was forthcoming it was inadvisable to lop off 1000 years. Recent disco…
