: 397 Their Ancestors Came from the Surface

What made the Phoenicians most famous was not their developed maritime trade and colonial cause, but the first alphabets in human history that they created, a total of 22 letters, known as the beginning of the world's alphabet.
The Phoenician alphabet derived the ancient Greek alphabet in the west, and the ancient Greek alphabet developed into Latin and Slavic alphabets. The Latin alphabet finally developed into modern 26 English letters.
There are 22 Phoenician letters without vowels. When they developed to the Latin alphabet, there were 23 letters. Finally, in order to distinguish the "v" of the vowel from the "v" of the consonant, the original v was changed. It becomes a circle and is defined as the vowel "u"; the two "v" s are connected to form a "w" for consonants. Later, people changed the "i" slightly and created another consonant letter " j ".
The 23 letters of the Latin alphabet plus the three letters ‘u’, ‘w’, and ‘j’ that were later evolved are now 26 English letters.
Chen Rui also checked the Phoenician alphabet on the computer and compared the text on the top of the book with the stone tablet and slate of the Phoenician alphabet that have been found and interpreted. For example, The text, the Mahaby King Mesa's memorabilia, the Uga alphabet tablet, the Moab stele, the Alami inscription and so on.
After comparison.
The truth came out.
The text in the book is the Phoenician alphabet.
Well, the people living in this mantle space of the earth are descendants of the Phoenicians more than 3,000 years ago.
Translate the first page of the book according to the Phoenician alphabet already read on your computer.
Chen Rui can be more certain that the ancestors of the people here came from the surface, the Phoenicians.
In the book, they use a set of calendars similar to modern calendars.
Everyone knows the modern calendar.
One year equals 365 days. A lubricating year established every four years to make up for the time difference between the annual number of days caused by the artificial calendar and the actual revolution cycle of the earth.
12 months a year.
A month or February is 28 or 29 days, the other month is 31 days for the big month, and 30 days for the small month.
24 hours a day.
However, the calendar recorded in this book is 365 days a year. Divided into 3 quarters and 12 months, 3 weeks per month, 10 days per week, and the extra 5 days at the end of the year as the festival time, very accurate.
We need to know that 365 days a year are calculated based on the period of the earth around the sun. The 30 days of a month are calculated based on the cyclical changes of the moon, and the 24 hours of a day are calculated based on the time of one revolution of the earth.
Well, people who live here have never seen the moon, the sun, and the four seasons have not changed. How do they know and determine their calendar.
Therefore, Chen Rui was very certain that their ancestors came from the surface.
This calendar is very similar to the calendar of ancient Egypt. Except for the changes in the water level of the Nile in ancient Egypt, the three calendars were called (flood), (growth), and (harvest).
Chen Rui can be sure that the people in this space come from the surface and are descendants of the Phoenicians.
When to get here is the 12th century BC. The Phoenicians created the Phoenician alphabet at least 3000 years ago.
That is, the descendants of the Phoenicians have proliferated in this earth's mantle space for more than 3,000 years.
Compared with modern civilization, the development of the Phoenician civilization, which originated from the surface for more than 3,000 years, has remained stagnant. There are still slave cities.
Also, the greatest impetus for the development of civilizations on the earth is the integration and exchange of various cultures.
In this earth's mantle space, the Phoenician civilization is a civilization, with whom it communicates.
Moreover, a unified country has not been formed and wars are frequent. All energies are busy fighting, let alone the progress of civilization.
Just like modern Africa.
Humans originated in Africa. China America. Explorers such as Russia are almost flying out of the solar system, and Africa is still this bird-like, is there any difference from primitive society? ?
As for why the Phoenicians more than 3,000 years ago were able to reach this mantle space hundreds of thousands of meters away from the surface.
Maybe you can find the answer later.
Chen Rui now spends all his energy on translating the book.
It took a week.
Find a lot of information on your laptop.
The main reference is the record of the base color farmer, the Moab stele, the inscription of Arami, the broken pieces of the text unearthed in Samaria, the tablet of the alphabet in Ugarit, and later the ancient Hebrew language, ancient Greece Letters etc.
Finally decoded a small part of the content.
Only a small part of the content can be deciphered.
There are too few Phoenician characters for reference.
Deciphered part of the content.
Chen Rui also had a preliminary understanding of the land under his feet.
This soil block has an area of ​​about 200,000 square kilometers, which is a little larger than that of Guangdong and Eastern Provinces, and is called Tyre.
Tyre is the largest city-state established by the ancient Phoenicians. According to research, Tyre is the Sur of Lebanon today.
The river next to it is called 'Enzhuo'. 'Enzhuo' means 'holy' in the Phoenician language.
The 'Enzhuo' river meanders more than 300 kilometers, with a basin area of ​​tens of thousands of square kilometers. There are many tributaries of the Enzhu River. The largest tributaries are the Mahle, Sobakt, Awa, and Atba River.
The Endor River and its tributaries nourished the Phoenician people living on this land.
On the land of Tyre ~ EbookFREE.me ~ has a large number of slave city-states, most of which are built along the Enzhu River.
Due to the convenient waterway transportation conditions and the ancient Phoenician tradition of developing business, the business here is very developed, and the development of business has also led to the development of various handicraft industries in the city.
Chen Rui stayed by the river.
There are more than 200,000 square kilometers in Tyre. It has a water network like a spider's web, convenient transportation and various vessels. Frequent exchanges between various city-states, less than one week, (Phoenician calendar, A week is 10 days.) A came from the whirlpool channel, and now stops by the river at the source of the holy river. All the people in Tyre knew this.
Immediately, more people walked by boat, or by land, and by horse-drawn carriage, they took various offerings along the river and went to the source for pilgrimage.
They call themselves servants of God, or followers of God.
They spontaneously, with pious heart, no regrets, collected a block of rock, felled wood, and built a tall and gorgeous temple by the river.
Let God live. (To be continued)
