When I say that the anti-Christian spammer is an obsessed retard who does this every day, you guys don't like it. OP didn't mention Christianity, Judaism, or any religion at all. He asked about Mesopotamia. So why does this damn person have to do this? Get a job, you lunatic.

What I like about ancient Mesopotamia is how every city had its own patron god, and the mythology of the region was a kind of collaborative effort with each city's priesthood adding their own stories to it.

>The spelling Babylon is the Latin representation of Koine Greek Babylṓn (Βαβυλών), derived from the native Akkadian: 𒆍𒀭𒊏𒆠, romanized: Bābilim, lit.'Gate of the God(s)'.[15]

Kek. The General public knows nothing about Mesopotamia even though it's the birth place of civilization instead what the Indian-Euro and Semitic subversive fags both religious and secular have done is instead of teaching that Mesopotamia mythology they subvert the Egyptian mythology. From the Kikes claiming they wuz slaves in Egypt and build the pyramids in 2600BC instead of Babylon to the Greek gaylord christing cult claiming Jesus wuz in Egypt too and learn his Magi sorcery from Thoth or some ascended Egyptian they are running away from Mesopotamia. They make billions in propaganda telling people the Gate of the God is in Egypt and the Annunakis went to Egypt muh pyramids, muh sphinx, Thoth gave us this, Thot gave us that, Thot fucked me mommy in the Nile and I wuz an Egyptian princess etc... Then these subversive fags are gonna tell you the Egyptians wuz evil, they invented slavery, and they wuz Alien demon nephilims etc...There is a reason why the Indian-Euro and Semitic fags are running away from Mesopotamia like their patriarch Abraham and don't really have an entire field of Archeology and genetics study like Egyptology for Mesopotamia let alone Sumer.

>Mesopotamian influences can be seen in the visual arts of Egypt, in architecture, in technology, weaponry, in imported products, religious imagery, economic practices, in agriculture and livestock, in genetic input, and also in the likely transfer of writing from Mesopotamia to Egypt[4] and generated "deep-seated" parallels in the early stages of both cultures. A similar Mesopotamian influence during this period is seen in Elam in Ancient Iran, the Levant, Anatolia and northern parts of the Arabian Peninsula.[2]
Mesopotamians wuz our ancient ancestors they wuz the real Godz and Kangz who taught the Ancient Egyptians, yet they running way from it like Abraham. Keep seething Indian-Euro/Semitic fag wewuzzer.

>>18544065
No it wasn’t, you fell for Jewish propaganda
>>
>>18543178
All the evidence points to Assyria being a particularly brutal and reviled hegemon of its day.
>>
>>18543166
There’s a really really bad one from the early 00s starting the Rock Johnson called “Scorpion King.”
>>
>>18543166
I would reckon that part to the story to the history to mesopotamia were farming and agriculture and animal husbandry and epigraphy and the story about scribes as some class and epigraphy as part to the techne and technology that composed those towns and which epigraphy studies
>>
>>18544336
The Scorpion King isn't bad compared to the subversive Mummie movies they've been making since the 30s when there is no Ancient Egyptian tales of mummies coming out the graves, yet these Indian-Euro/Semitic subversive fags never made any movies about the Necromancer zombie Gayreek flying kike Alien demon hybrid sorcerer Jesus coming out his Grave with his walking deads in Jerusalem.

Can someone explain/show the artistic differences between different cultures and time periods across Mesopotamian history?

I want to know how Sumerian, Babylonian, Assyrian, Neo-Babylonian, Neo-Assyrian etc architecture and art differed

t. Mesoamerica anon

>>18544334
Not my area but based on this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v5do6CM3gu4 It sounds like Assyria just gets called out for pan-mesopotamian practices the most because we have the most records from them and they were the most strongest military power of their time.

Same deal with the Aztec not actually being that bad compared to other Mesoamerican or even Eurasian groups, they're just the best documented and were the biggest kid on the block and had the most opportunity to push other groups around
>>
>>18544367
If you are okay with old old movies (since I know not everyone is) there’s an old movie called Intolerance which has scenes set in Babylon

Kek. it's a Christing cult silent movie again you will never find a movie about Mesopotamia be it Sumer, Akkadia, Assyria, Babylon etc...mythologies made by Hollywood the past or in the present.
>>
>>18544456
He is saying that the mummy movies have more in common with th story of Lazarus for example so it’s an example of Hollywood Semitifying Egypt.
>>
>>18544484
It has nothing to do with the story of Lazurus. The idea of a corpse from a mystical foreign culture being preserved for 3000 years is kind of spooky, that's it.
>>
>>18543166
Because even though they were first, Egypt totally mogged them on a civilizational level.

>>18544491
Mummies are spooky but muh rotting Abrahamic zombie prophets and saints are Godly and perfection. Kek

Those are also spooky. Most Americans are Protestants and don't know about the European churches doing stuff like that. Every person I take to Rome with me gets grossed out by the dead popes in the Vatican. I think most Christians in general aren't aware of major churches putting corpses on display like that, they're pretty ignorant of their own religion.

Yes, they were even worse, even if your fetish for them says otherwise.
>>
>>18546207
They were "worse" then other Mesoamericans in that they were particularly militaristic and by extension had more opportunity to get sacrifices, and in that they may have been especially classist and/or sexually prudish (if you think that's a bad thing), but that's about it.

They weren't more administratively onerous then other groups, in fact they were less so then the Purepecha and maybe even the Zapotec and Classic Maya
>>
>>18546207
Mesoamericans were more animalistic than the peoples of the Old World even the most brutal cultures like the Mongols and Scythians, for example, would have much to learn from the Aztecs in particular.
>>
>>18546207
I think the issue here is institutionalized sadism these Mexican cartels are being simply trad

Why are you crying about Christianity if that's not even the topic of this thread, you worm? Are you so obsessed that you can't stop thinking about Christianity even once?
>>

>Why are you crying about Christianity if that's not even the topic of this thread
The Bible lyingly calls Babylon and Assyria "evil"
>>
>>18546288
Worm, you didn't answer me: what does Christianity have to do with this? Why did you turn the thread into your internalized anger towards Christianity? OP asked about Mesopotamia, not why Christianity is X or Y.
