🏺An ancient culture would not be a culture without its own pantheon. This is a #Philistine ritual bowl from Gath having the #Druid #Akkadian inscription "This emotionally-arouses Kate / #Hekate | Involve nourishments with motion[-changes]" #pagan #Palaeography

🏺 Vimose Comb #Rune text 200 CE Funan, Denmark. Translated in #Akkadian as "The liver is opened by Su." Liver was the source of emotions in humans because it acted as a receiver of emotion/motion powers from the #Druid dark new moon god Su. #Pagan #ancienthistory

"Break-outs (like rain from sky-shell) cannot be shedded by blockages.
Is not the curse from Su's (Dark new moon god) emotion-powers?"

🏺Love images with texts as they cross-check each other. This is the star Sirius which integrates the 2 Druid spiritual power classes. Text: "Sirius gives divinity (motion power characteristic) to the eagle-vultures (a life power mechanism)" #Pagan #Numistatics

🏺 First Romans wrote Akkadian in Etruscan letter style as evidenced by blackish Lapis Niger Runestone (700 BCE) now under the Roman Forum. It is a debate about the astrological powers. #Pagan

🏺 Ancestor figurine from Pope’s Cave in Brassempouy, France dated to 25,000 BCE where the arm is clearly visible. This is similar to the pillars at Gobekli Tepi. Based on the backside carving this originated as a phallic symbol. #Neolithic #Mesolithic #pagan

🏺Sky-Shell building blocks, another long lasting Druid cultural meme identified by their top handle. Göbekli Tepe Pillar 43 (9000 BCE) has it. Akkadian text on Italian version (400 BCE) is about powers punching through the sky-shell. #Neolithic #Pagan #Akkadian

🏺Why Druid? We have European-wide runic texts written in Neolithic Akkadian from 1900 BCE to 1200 CE, all showing a common spiritual culture. Despite spoken language changing around them, some group kept writing Akkadian. They must be the Druids of the classical authors. #Pagan #ancient #history

🏺Runic letters slowly developed over time after the Bronze Age and divided themselves into 3 lineages Northern, Sea Peoples, and Levant (see charts). Runes are letters used texts whose words do not have inner vowels. Greeks were first to add inner vowels. #linguistics #epigraphy #runes #ancient

🏺Correcting some claims these Syrian tomb sticks are the oldest letters. They are not. These are in the Maltese style dating to 500 BCE and can be translated in Akkadian: "[something's] energy frustrates astrology-magic." & "Nest the passions" #epigraphy #Pagan

Many English words with problematic traditional etymologies actually derive from Akkadian. One is beer: Akkadian phrase B.ER meaning "nourishments of a gathering-place." Middle English ber, Old English beor "strong drink, beer" cognate with Old Frisian biar, Middle Dutch bier, Old High German bior.

🏺 Computer studies continue to show European languages have two sources. The northern Indo-European source and the southern Akkadian source. Yet some researchers continue to insist that Indo-European also came out of northern Mesopotamia. P. Heggarty, and all (Science, 28 July 2023) #linguistics
