1. At 10:45, could "Binu Yamina" have a similar linguistical origin to "Benjamin"? 2. At 12:03, "Abdashtart" means Servant (or Slave) of the Spouse (here referring to the Queen of Heaven, goddess of the sky and companion of El in the Levantine polytheism) 3. At 16:43, Rabbian Amurrûm means "Master / Guide / Chief of the Amorites?" It is very reminiscent of Hebrew. 4. At 17:09, the name of the patriarch is Abda-El, Servant of The God. Many Amorite theophoric names to El, the greatest Levantine deity, first among the gods, Oldest One, he created the Cosmos, the animals and Humanity.

Cy mentioned the Tjeker who are thought to be associated with or even developed,the Phoenician port of DOR. Likewise the well documented presence of Mycenaean pottery and even burials in the later Philistine areas struck me as a strange coincidence (though maybe only that) given the name Dor. Could this possibly suggest the elusive Dorians?

@@il967 yes definitely both the Arameans and Amorites are from the North West Semitic group, along with Canaanites and their subgroups... the general understanding is that there were 3 Semitic mother-groups that came out of the Syrian Desert and spread into the rest of the Middle East; these groups being the Akkadians, the Amorites/Canaanites, and the Arabs. The Akkadians settled in Mesopotamia and eventually split into Assyrians and Babylonians; the Amorites and Canaanites settled in the Levant, with other subgroups springing from them later like the Arameans, Ammonites, Moabites, and the other various Canaanite states; and the Arabs settled in various locations of the Arabian Peninsula.

The Amorites are an ancient Semitic Syrian people, and they are said to be from the Arab Amalekites. They are the ancestors of the Arab Amalekites from Jedis, Tasm, and Jasim. The Amorites inhabited the Badia of Al-Sham, their capital and their original home. The Bishri Mountain was in the Syrian desert in Palmyra, Syria. They also existed in the Syrian mountains...The Amorites established kingdoms in Syria before the millennium The third AD, including the kingdoms of Mari in eastern Syria and the kingdom of Ebla in western Syria, and then the expansion of the Amorites throughout the Levant. Ruling dynasties in Babylon..also a dynasty of the Amorites called the Hyksos lived in southern Syria and then the Amorites expanded in the Sinai and were able to enter Egypt and the Hyksos occupied Egypt for two hundred years.

I am a chaldean, we still speak read and write Aramian language of Babylon, today we are catholics of Iraq! Since we are semetics and belong to the same linguistic family of semetics of syria, lebanon, and Iraq( Beth Nahrim) Listening to the word(Mar.tu) that summerians used to describe the Amorites in the text make me think and try to explaine or bring the word closer to our efforts to understand what( Mart. tu) means! We call the lord or the owner of any property or thing... (Mar). And ownership= Marutha. Or Maru.ta as. Our Assyrian cousins say it. So in the same token or context. Martu or Marutu Could mean the owners Of lands or cattles or lords ,bosses, of tribes or nomads, especially if you inject the letter (h), or add a letter to the word Mar.tu And becomes Marthu.also we use the word Martha, or Marta which means saint woman, which is used in English as a name MARTHA. Just like adding a umber to an quation to find value of anumber what do you think!?

Great content but why not make a video about the amorites of Syria where they originally came from with their great cities of Ebla Mari and Qatna?

Many thanks. When we just see the Amorities names: (Binu Yamina-Abda El) we clearly and unambiguously notice pure Arabic names that are still in use today among the Arabs: “Binu or “Bano” means “sons of ..” in Arabic, and therefore “Binu Yamina” means “sons of Yamina” or more precisely “the Yamina tribe,” even "Yamina" means in Arabic "the right", meaning the right side, but it also means, and this is most likely, "the pact" or "the oath" because if the Arabs before Islam wanted to conclude an alliance, each one would shake the right hand of the other, which is a logical interpretation in light of this tribal, coalitional environment. As for "Abda-El", it is of course "Abdu Allah", the well-known Arabic name used until today. By the way, this name is not only an Islamic name, but it existed before Islam, so much so that the name of the father of the Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon, was “Abdu Allah”.

Amorites had their own language but they quickly adopted the Sumerian language and customs. During the Akkadian empire's days, Akkadian and Sumerian have been both made state languages of the empire. They remained in use in various forms throughout the centuries up until "recently", so around 100 BD - 100 AD. Whilst Sumerian was used mostly in official / legal / state related situation, the Akkadian was the every day language for many (including the Amorites themselves). Bilingualism was widespread, of course

Hi! Yes, they called themselves "amurru" in later Akkadian texts. For example, many of the later kings, along with claiming to be "King of Sumer and Akkad," also added "Chief of the Amorites" (rabium amurrum) to their many titles. Though they pretty assimilated into the fabric of life in their new land, even generations later, they still acknowledged the fact that they were of Amorite origin. My personal opinion is that they were from a region called Amurru, and that name was eventually adopted to mean the general direction west in the languages of central and southern Mesopotamia.

Thanks for another great video cy I think the amorite migrations were because of them being forced out of Canaan and the Levant by israel and their descendants which I find interesting as I've just finished reading Deuteronomy in the Bible what's your opinion on this? Maybe the reason the amorites were able to rise to power so fast and were of great influence is because they were of great stature being the descendants of giants.

@@megamanx466 but I welcome debate on such matters like whether only the amorites leaders( and their descendants) were giants or the entirety of the amorite tribes were giants as I myself am far from an expert and am still learning but how great it is to learn such things

Kurdish Kalhur dialect is going back to akadian i think

So the amorites were basically knackers. Makes sense.

"Binu Yamina" sounds a lot like "Benjamin", which is one of the 12 tribes of Israel. In particular, the Benjamin tribe comes from Rachel - an Aramean woman. This might strengthen the conjecture that Arameans are descendants of the Amorites. The name of their chiefs "Rabbian Amurru" also sounds like the origin of the word "Rabbi".

Mary Magdalene, the Benjaminite heiress of a vast fortune, bankrolled the Amorite Jesus clan of Mt. Seir's pushback against Rome, which had just slaughtered her dad. All of it was political. They were all Amorites with the biblical admonition to not marry outside their clans. In fact king Og was dismayed that the Chosen Ones with Babylon's help were killing people against the ten commandments.

The Amur River Kingdom Amurru was half of Asia. They left their Ket Gaelic of the YTarim Basin language as the root of the Na-Dene/Athapaska, the Navajo and the Apache languages. The story is they brought their own Mongols when they built Muscovy Tartaria in North America. All the noble families have Amorite in them if you check the genealogy and rightly so since they all claim to be of Jesus' clan.

@@alexcholagh8330 Thank you, that was one of the theories I heard that they were in the marshlands in Sumeria for thousands of years living amongest the Sumerians. So I can discard the other theories. Just for your info the other theories were: 1 They were a tribe from Arabia 2: They were a tribe from the mountains 3: They were an Aramean tribe

Who the Amorites were and where the came from. Hmm, well besides that they came somewhere from Western regions? No. Not one thing wiser then before concerning the questions that were stated at the beginning of this video. But that they were very clever people for pastorales who in due time took over, yeah, know a thing or two more of that. And yeah, that they were Semitic, like the Akkadians.

Was El of the Amorites the same El that the Israelites adopted as an ethnic God? When you look at academic sources, they describe how the commonly names of people of Amorite origin were theophorics in honor to El. They refered to their El Amurrû as "Our Holy God, God of Our People, God of My Father and of His Father". For me, it is too similar to what we see in the Tanakh / Old Testament, when the Israelites refer to their God.

Even the Achaemenid(Artaxerxes II) and an Abrahamic faith(Paul) would later introduce a trinity worship to monotheistic religions. Trinity must have always been the special trick of the devil, since partning up God with others, is the greatest sin of all.
