	The State Hermitage Museum: Collection Highlights
		A remarkable collection of cuneiform inscriptions, reliefs, pieces of small statuary and applied art represent the culture of the Sumerians, founders of a civilization between the rivers Tigris and Euphrates; their successors, the Akkadians and Babylonians, who created the powerful Assyrian Empire; and the peoples of the ancient Mediterranean.
		Babylonian domination of the area between the Tigris and the Euphrates is also illustrated by cuneiform materials: an informative selection of economic documents, promissory notes and materials associated with school education.
		There are Assyrian reliefs from the residences of the rulers Ashurnasirpal II (9th century BC), Sargon II, Tiglath-Pileser III, Sinakherib (late 8th-7th centuries BC) - typical examples of Assyrian imperial art, intended to glorify the power and might of the cruel Assyrian rulers and to immortalize their victories over enemies.

		The stars suggest that this myth was current in the 28th century BC.
		While Revelation is part of the beginning of an entirely new tradition, helping to announce the birth of Christianity to the ancient world, it also represented a 'regime change', the end of mythology as a common language in western culture.
		This common motif runs from at least 5000 BC until the time of the New Testament, and even longer if we include Chinese tradition, may simply be the fanciful musings of an ancient, ignorant people, even if the themes remain the same.

	PRESS RELEASES
		To all astrologers and astronomers before the 17th century AD the terms ‘astrology’ and ‘astronomy’ were often interchangeable, although sometimes the emphasis applied to each was different.
		It seems probable that the learning which was acquired in the Megalithic cultures was communicated to Mesopotamia, perhaps between 3,000 and 2,000 BC and it was in Mesopotamia just after this last date that we find evidence of the emerging combination of astronomy, mathematics and mythology which was to become the basis of astrology.
		It is known however that Chinese astrology under one form or another had been widely practiced in the Orient since the 40th century BC and especially since the times of the Chinese Emperors Fu Hsi (2953-2838 BC) and Shen Nung (born in the 28th century BC).

	The Star Sothis and Egyptian Chronology
		The dates in the twenty-third century BC - attributed to Hammurabi by the earlier historians - have had to be periodically adjusted as a result of new archaeological finds; first to c.2100 BC, and more lately to c.1700 BC, with differences of opinion still amounting to nearly a century.
		The reason for the most recent major shift of Hammurabi, to the eighteenth century BC, was in order for historians to synchronise the First Babylonian Dynasty with the Middle Kingdom of Egypt, on the basis of material from both places having been found in a common deposit on the island of Crete.
		And since from his general estimation he believed that the date of 2781 BC was an impossibly late one for the commencement of this sequence of eleven dynasties, Meyer concluded that the Egyptian calendar must have been inaugurated in a presumed earlier Sothic period commencing at 4240 BC.
