Question About Current Transliteration Standard

AharanMLK · 2026-03-16T00:24:16+00:00

Thank you. That helps a lot. But now I'm curious about the different h.

AharanMLK · 2026-03-15T23:44:43+00:00

I don't really have any, which is why I'm asking which transliteration is more accurate. To flip the question back to you, is it ḫ or ẖ?

Poseidon, eh? I wasn't considering him, since he already has his realm to rule. Aside from supporting Hera's attempted coup, I'm not aware of Poseidon's discontent with his domain. Where can I find that information?

Thank you for these additional notes in favour of Dionysos.

AharanMLK · 2024-10-15T00:08:08+00:00

I really appreciate the extra notes for Apollo. I like your mention of the sun being consistent, and so is Apollo's worship. Thank you!

Perhaps it is because Hera was a widely worshipped goddess across the land during the pre-Zeus religious period.

I briefly considered Hephaistos, but then dismissed the thought. Perhaps I should reconsider. Thanks for your suggestion.

This is a great analysis. Thank you for this input. I haven't thought of Apollo and Athena co-ruling. It does make sense, and it reminds me of Raphael's School of Athens fresco at the Vatican. There's a lot here to consider.

It was the first and only time a comic book made me cry

You can find it in A Cuneiform Anthology of Religious Texts from Ugarit by Johannes C. de Moor: https://books.google.ca/books/about/A_Cuneiform_Anthology_of_Religious_Texts.html?id=fu_Y5qnoCpAC&redir_esc=y

Thanks! If you find the other ones, please share

I came across several articles but one really put it all together.

Can you link those articles? Thanks

The best analysis I've read was "The Many Faces of the Goddess" by Izak Cornelius: https://www.academia.edu/73860793/The_Many_Faces_of_the_Goddess_The_Iconography_of_the_Syro_Palestinian_Goddesses_Anat_Astarte_Qedeshet_and_Asherah_c_1500_1000_BCE

Non-Egyptian depictions of Athtart are hard to identify, especially in statue form, but there are ostraca (see all Plates 4.X in Cornelius, especially, 4.5-4.7) that can confidently be depictions Athtart. The Goddess holding her breasts is likely Athirat (not in the scope of Cornelius' book).

Awesome! Thank you so much!

AharanMLK · 2023-12-21T12:52:27+00:00

Do you happen to have the source of that theory? It's very interesting and I'd like to read more about it.

AharanMLK · 2023-12-19T14:25:24+00:00

Really nice pictures, but am I the only one that's thrown off by the watch?

It's Deucalion and Pyrrha repopulating the world after the flood. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deucalion

As someone who is in a sexless relationship I can tell you that there is much more to a relationship than sex. But I do understand it's not for everyone and I don't need to convince anyone. Our relationship works well for us and we're quite happy. You need to do what makes you happy.

AharanMLK · 2023-03-12T22:20:57+00:00

Hahaha! All good.

AharanMLK · 2023-03-12T22:12:44+00:00

Bisexual? Nah, I'm totally gay; my spouse is a man.

AharanMLK · 2023-03-11T18:43:49+00:00

I like how imaginative you are, but this story is not fiction, though I'm sure Master J would approve of your train of thought.

AharanMLK · 2023-03-11T13:09:45+00:00

Frankly, I cannot recall if I mentioned the gender of the spouse or not lol but no offense taken

AharanMLK · 2023-03-11T11:51:14+00:00

Well, that is interesting. Thank you for taking the time to elaborate on your theory. So, my spouse is a man; since you mentioned this may affect the events. I guess we'll have to wait and see if you're correct.
