		Ebla to Damascus follows the thread of this movement, focusing attention on urban cultures from the third millennium B.C. through the first millennium A.D. Objects represent each major cultural epoch from the origins of agriculture to the rise of Islam.

		Ebla to Damascus describes, through artifacts, the beginnings of writing, trade practices, and cross-cultural ties, spanning the 10,000 years between the first instance of settled life in 9,000 B.C. to the Islamic era.

	Saudi Aramco World : Ebla: City of the White Stones (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Because the name "Ebla" was mentioned twice in the inscription, Professor Pettinato postulated that Tell Mardikh, was identical to the ancient Ebla - a place mentioned obscurely in Akkadian and Assyrian records.
		From those tablets the archeologists concluded that Ebla was a flourishing kingdom in the third millennium B.C. that was apparently a commercial and political rival to the powerful states of Mesopotamia.
		Ebla also seems to have traded with civilizations in Anatolia, Palestina and western Iran, made treaties with its neighbors, and conquered the powerful city-state of Mari in Mesopotamia.

	::DESIGN AND THE UNIVERSE::
		The most important feature of the Ebla tablets, discovered by archaeologists in 1975 and which have been the subject of much research and debate ever since, is that they contain the names of three prophets referred to in holy scriptures.
		Historians analyzed the Ebla tablets from this perspective, and this major discovery regarding the Prophet Abraham and his mission became the subject of research with regard to the history of religions.
		The history of Ebla and the Ebla tablets which came to light after some 4,500 years actually point to one major truth: God sent messengers to Ebla, as He did to every community, and these called their peoples to the true religion.

	ABC Radio National: The Ark 22 August 2004 - Lost City at Ebla
		The city of Ebla was known from Mesopotamian sources in Sumerian and in Akkadian, the Semitic language of Mesopotamia.
		What we do get at Ebla, and this is where my own particular work is involved, is something very exciting, and that is, as I mentioned, the earliest attested Semitic language always gives us new information about grammatical forms and words, and tracing the history of words and so on.
		But as far as we can see, goddesses are mentioned, but they seem to play only a secondary role as the consort to the main gods, or they’re mentioned in lists where their sacrifices were performed to such-and-such a goddess.
