history channel documentary hd A gold Mycenean ring demonstrates a few animals wearing a weird, textured piece of clothing. There are Babylonian ring stones and Assyrian seal stones in the British Museum, portraying frames that are half human and half fish, while at Pasargadae in Persia, an entryway has been found on the support of which there is an alleviation representation of such a double shape being. Eusebius, a fourth century Christian recorder, specified comparable animals who showed up, he said, amid the years of the Babylonians. Eusebius discovered this data in the writings of Apollodoros, a second century BC history specialist and logician who was occupied with the lineage of the divine beings before the Flood. Apollodoros' primary source was a "Babylonian History" written in Greek in the fourth century by a cleric named Berosos from Bithynia. Having entry to the cuneiform writings of the Chaldeans, Berosus discovered that in the extremely antiquated times, a land and water proficient animal named Oannes had emerged from the ocean. This abnormal being cultivated humankind with its predominant knowledge. Different Oannes likewise showed up every now and then, dependably bearers of wealth and information. The Sumerians loved this figure as a divine being named Enki, while the Babylonians called the same heavenly nature Ea, i.e. divine force of the waters, and trusted that his royal residence was in the city of Eridu on the Persian Gulf. It is bizarre to consider the way that in western Africa there is a tribe called the Dongons, who trust that information about the development of the stars was conferred to them by shrewd land and water proficient animals. At that point obviously there is the Gorgon or mermaid of later Greek fables. So no doubt the Triton of the people of old is an immortal being, with far off outsider precursors and later nearby relatives.
