KHARSAG
RESEARCH PROJECT
Summary
of the Aims of this Research Project
We seek
permission and support from the Lebanese authorities to carry
out a preliminary survey and investigation of the Rachaiya South
Basin and the surrounding area.
We
also seek to encourage the Lebanese authorities and where necessary
others to assist in planning and organising the necessary archaeological
and environmental surveys to substantiate the evidence gathered
through the research and translations of ancient texts by the
authors of The Genius of the Few - Christian and Barbara Joy
O'Brien.
To
discover whether there are physical features and dated farming
evidence, to establish beyond reasonable doubt, the actual Kharsag
or Garden of Eden, as portrayed in the Sumerian, Arabic or Hebraic
literature, at this site.
Archaic
Tablet 8383 - Sumerian Nippur Library - Decision to Settle

Nippur Archaic
Cylinder - To judge from the script, the Nippur cylinder illustrated
on this plate (8383 in the Nippur collection of the University
Museum) may date as early as 2500 BC. Although copied and published
by the late George Barton as early as 1918, its contents, which
centre about the Sumerian air-god Enhil and the goddess Ninhursag,
are still largely unintelligible. Nevertheless, much that was
unknown or misunderstood at the time of its publication is now
gradually becoming clarified, and there is good reason to hope
that the not too distant future will see the better part of
its contents ready for translation.
From Sumerian
Mythology by Samuel Noah Kramer 1963
