Babylonian and Assyrian Religion by S.H. Hooke – University of Oklahoma Press, 1
A fascinating exploration of the ancient spiritual world that gave birth to civilization itself — Babylonian and Assyrian Religion by S.H. Hooke, published by the University of Oklahoma Press.
Hooke, one of the 20th century’s leading biblical and ancient Near Eastern scholars, presents a sweeping yet readable overview of Mesopotamian beliefs, from the myth of Gilgamesh and the rites of Marduk to the temples, omens, and cosmic order that shaped human understanding of gods and kings.
Illustrated with photographs of artifacts, tablets, and reliefs from major museums, this volume captures the rhythm of a culture that influenced the Hebrews, Persians, and Greeks alike.
