Abstract:
This paper is a formal demonstration of cognation between Elamite, a major language of the ancient Near East, and Brahui, a language of Balochistan, spoken primarily in Pakistan but also in Iran and Afghanistan. It is identifying Brahui as Modern Colloquial Eastern Elamite. Almost exactly two millennia have elapsed between the last recording of Elamite and the first recorded example of Brahui. While closely related, Brahui is not a descendant of classical Elamite. Rather, it is descended from an unattested eastern branch of Elamite. Part, one deals with a full statement of the Comparative Method focusing on the root syllable. Part Two adds comparative morphology and retailed comparisons of the verb structure.

Abstract:
Abstract Linear Elamite writing was used in southern Iran in the late 3rd/early 2nd millennium BCE (ca. 2300–1880 BCE). First discovered during the French excavations at Susa from 1903 onwards, it has so far resisted decipherment. The publication of eight inscribed silver beakers in 2018 provided the materials and the starting point for a new attempt; its results are presented in this paper. A full description and analysis of Linear Elamite of writing, employed for recording the Elamite language, is given here for the first time, together with a discussion of Elamite phonology and the biscriptualism that characterizes this language in its earliest documented phase.

Abstract:
Cuneiform is the name of various writing systems in use throughout the Middle East from the end of the fourth millennium BCE until the late first century CE. The wedge-shaped writing was used to write ten to fifteen languages from various language families: Sumerian, Elamite, Eblaite, Old Assyrian, Old Babylonian and other Akkadian dialects, Proto-Hattic, Hittite, Luwian, Palaic, Hurrian, Urartian, Ugaritic, Old Persian etc. Over the centuries it evolved from a pictographic to a syllabographic writing system and eventually became an alphabetic script, but most languages used a 'mixed orthography' which combined ideographic and phonetic elements, and required a rebus principle of reading.

Abstract:
Abstract The Persian tribe of the Tapyroi appears to be at home in the Caspian region according to the classical sources, except for one passage in Arrian's Anabasis. The Elamite texts from the Persepolis Fortification archive now add more information on this second group of Tapyroi. More important, these sources allow for a new contextualization of classical accounts on the tribes of Achaemenid Iran and yield a more complete image of their status within, and interaction with, the state.

Abstract:
Abstract The satrapies of Persia (Old Persian Parsa) and Elam (Old Persian Uja) were at the core of the Persian Empire. While Persia roughly corresponds to the modern Iranian province of Fars, and Elam to the province of Khuzestan, their boundaries cannot be traced precisely on a map. They housed two iconic centers of power, from where most of the known royal inscriptions of the Achaemenid Dynasty originate: in Persia, the monumental complex of Persepolis (Parsa, modern Takht-e Jamshid), and in Elam, the ancient city of Susa (modern Shush). It is in these cities that one can best observe the entanglement of Elamite and Iranian cultural elements that shaped the creation and consolidation of the Persian Empire. Persia occupied the land surrounding the ancient Elamite city of Anšan, situated in the same high plain as the later foundation of Persepolis, and various groups of Persians are attested in Susa before the rise of the Persian Empire. Beyond Susa and Persepolis, lowland Susiana and the intermontane plains were key production areas for crop farming, fruit growing, and cattle breeding, as is documented in detail by the Persepolis Fortification tablets, a group of administrative texts primarily in the Elamite language. The classical authors, too, provide information on the satrapies of Persia and Elam and political events related to them, especially in connection with Alexander the Great and his army, reporting also on the mountain peoples living on these regions’ fringes.

Abstract:
The study of the Achaemenid Persian Empire, and its founder Cyrus the Great, has until recently been dominated by the portrayals preserved in Greek, Roman, and biblical sources. Advances in modern understanding of ancient Near Eastern languages (from their initial rediscovery in the nineteenth century and continued work in progress), many written in cuneiform scripts, have led to significant advances, especially in the last generation of modern scholarship. The historical period c. 650–550 BCE, from the denouement of the Elamite kingdoms and the Assyrian Empire to the rise of Cyrus the Great, still remains a dark age in many ways, especially as regards Cyrus’ predecessors as kings of Anshan in Fars. It is clear nonetheless that the Achaemenids’ predecessors in Assyria, Babylonia, and Elam left a significant imprint on Cyrus and his family.

Abstract:
Abstract This famous passage from the Book of Genesis expresses the recognition of a distinctive feature of the Middle Eastern region as contrasted with the two other regions of ancient civilisation in the old world. China had substantially one classical language, one script, one civilisation; ancient India likewise, with relatively minor variations. The Middle East had many different unrelated civilisations and many languages which, from the earliest times, created problems of communication. The problem was apparently still unresolved by the time of the New Testament, and there again we have a reference to the situation created by the Tower of Babel, which was, when necessary, solved by what in Christian parlance is called ‘the miracle of tongues’. Let me quote another passage: ‘And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born? Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judea, and Cappadocra, in Pontus etc... we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of God’ (Acts 2: 8–11). And again ‘In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues’ (Mark 16:17). And again ‘If any man speak in an unknown tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and that by course; and let one interpret’ (1 Corinthians 14:27).
