- In ancient Mesopotamia, women filled many roles that brought strength to their communities. Among these women were a few in the city of Ur, who held powerful positions as rulers and religious leaders. Watch as Penn Museum experts, William B. Hafford, Ph.D. and Jane Hickman, Ph.D. bring to light the stories of Queen Puabi and the Entu Priestesses.
Great video. I'm in Nasiriyyah in order to go to Ur tomorrow. This gives me rich background details to help envision the site's glory days.
Wonderful to learn about these women leaders in the ancient world - Thank you.
I wonder why it didn’t stick more often.
Wow, That was really informative. Very Very Interesting. Thank You for the upload.
Very interesting
Thank you for this information, please share more about women throughout ancient history. There is such a lack of such information shared. :)
Thank you for this amazing valuable information
Vedic hymn about the romance of Pururavas ans Urvashi (resident of Ur) is famous, where she appears as a nymph. Sumeria and Harappa had close trade relation for more than 300-400 years.
Indeed the west asia trade with the indus valley goes back ....
Really awesome. Thank you.
You are doing a commendable work . Keep up the good work.
Nice
Passionnant
Amazing
Fascinating just fascinating!
Hola, me gustaría mucho que pusieran en la aplicación de subtítulos opciones en español y otros idiomas. Saludos cordiales.
Do we have any translation of the music/ hyms Enheduana wrote?
Yes you can buy them at sites where books are sold.
es lamentable que no se pueda acceder a la traducción en castellano
Whose daughter was Enagadadavida?
I thought we didnt know Puabi's title, or was my teacher wrong about that?
Is enhaduana the "semiramis" of Nimrod?
What is her name?
Sooo not much has changed over the last few thousand years
It's pretty much the same way today we have some women not many in some high standing positions and Mercantile and yeah the home about it
Some things never change
middle-east in terms of women's rights is worst than what it was 5000 years ago, thanks to the beautiful religion of islam.
As women we have always been treated as a minority something to be controlled ruled over in every known culture around the world and it has been that way for thousands of years and really to tell you the truth I don't think it'll ever change
Much has changed since then. For one thing we don't sacrifice the servants of our leaders when they pass away like people did for Puabi. Also we have much more females in government then people of those times. In the Ancient times, women rulers were rare events that occurred every 100 years.

We need the DNA results for queen Puabi! What is there to lose?
🍜 these ancient artifacts belonging to the country they were originally found in
Sumer?

sumer is located in southern of lraq
Agreed but they can't take care better than of were is it belongs.
That fact that Ur is talked about ALL the time, and I've never until yesterday heard of Queen Pu-Abi is quite telling. The pathetic gender cover ups in the archeological world really shows you how afraid of women some people are. Gross.
Could someone clarify for me if this queen Puabi is the same as body 61 in the great death pit or not? Thanks
wonder if that cloak could be read like a quipu ?

Could she be Semiramis?
She is yes
I was thinking that is here high priestess of inanan with the moon disc and the 8pointed star is all symbols for the queen of heaven as they call her she must of lived a long time coz innana miscarried to nimrod then tammuz possibly gilgamesh another giant she was nearly 7 foot tall
We are the Life-givers
What exactly attested to the POWER of these women? I failed to see.
당신이 한국에 온다면 수메르 지역에서 보던 모든 추성적 기호들을 박물관에서 볼 수 있다 한국은 수천년 모계사회였고 유교로 인해 500년 전에 공식적으로 가부장제가 도입됐고, 현재 형편없는 여성인권국이지만 여전히 모계적 특성이 남아있다 아시아 특히 아시아 문명의 원류인 한국이 그 증거다 한국의 강력한 고대국가 중 두개의 나라가 같은 여성에 의해 창업된 것이다 그 이름은 고구려와 백제이다 고구려는 현재 한국의 영어이름과 같다
Ku-[an]-ba-bau "Kubaba" of Kish, 3rd Dynasty, is one of the rare women in the "King List".
An unintentional joke is the fact "powerful women of Ur" is by far the shortest ever video Penn have produced about the Sumerians.
Seven minutes and thirty eight seconds whereas a lecture about the drainage system or the storage of grain would be one and a half hours at least.
I would love to know more about women in history, it is such a pain to have this void of stories and societal value.
Emilee L.. All joking aside, they missed out the most important woman.
Writing was either invented or perfected by a woman.
I think her name was something like Nabiru".
She was the sister of the mother of Gilgamesh.
She is referred to as a goddess in later writings but started out as a person.
I would have to look it up because I can't remember her name.
I am a male chauvinist pig but she definitely sounds like a genuinely positive and big influence on history.
Did you just refer to yourself earnestly as a male chauvinist pig?
+John Morey: It's from the Expedition series, which is not the same format as a lecture:

In addition, they've done a video on the 99% that was less than 5 minutes. I don't think a reasonable person can infer bias or an unintended joke from this short video.
@@JohnMorley1 her name was En-hedu-anna, and yes, she did change history.
Kurds of today are the decents of ancient mesopotamians.
@Manley Nelson yes
@Manley Nelson youre welcome.ive seen lot of kurdish dna results and we tend to get a high pourcentage of iranian,caucasian and mesopotamian dna here for example : www.reddit.com/r/23andme/comments/ijgi38/kurdish_mostly_iranian_caucasian_mesopotamian/ or www.reddit.com/r/23andme/comments/g8maz0/100_kurdish_interesting_but_expected_results/ and there is many more. lIngustically the languages evoluated a lot and many people dont know much about mesopotamian languages so they consider it as an isolated language but what i know it that there is many similar words between sumerian and kurdish for example even the word Kurd comes from the sumerians word Karda.

Yes ,. Kurds are Sumerians
No, people live in South of Iraq are descending from summarian civilization. Kurds came from Turkey in the past, look at your skin colour.
이 부분에 대해 정말 알고싶다 고유럽을 가부장제로 오염시킨 자들이 인도유럽어족의 유목민들이라면 이들은 과연 누구인가? 나는 여러책을 보았는데 상반된 주장이 양립하고 있다
Puabi was likely an Annunaki. Penn fails to mention she had an elongated skull. Also, the British museum, that has stashed Puabi's remains, has refused to test the DNA in those remains. These museums are the locked vaults of our history and the breeding grounds for the egotistical hunters of tenure.
Nin Puaby Nin= Goodess , sitchin asked Dna examination tests but no answer from the museum probably strong annunaki blood

You Alien Stupid
Iraq is a great nation and it will remain great
She was a so called African the rings threw her hair big clue
Leave mesopotamia alone. Never was it rulled by africans. To this day arabian gulf gold headdresse are woren by women of iraq and the arabian gulf. Google arabian gold headress.
Arab women still have ornate complex hairstyles and would have long ago. Hairstyles are not only in Africa
Are you for real ur pulling the black card coz her earrings? So stupid she was wife of nimrod aka sargon the great she married her son and she married her own son from nimrod call tammuz but she was white she is ishtar ISIS innana egypt osiries tammuz isis is the family their were anunnnaki which are the aryan bloodline coz goglameah was white but slight tanned Kurdish is really what they look like middle east not African black but of course she is black 2you
The gold probably came from Africa or the Philippines the land of Ophir.
Abram and his wife, Sarai were also from Ur. Sarai was very beautiful according to the Bible.

Why when it's a queen do you get into great detail about what she wore and how she did her hair? There are plenty of things to say about men who wore dresses and jewelry and how they wore their hair but the concentration is not the same. You should know that the Catholic Church before the Inquisition had a type of Inquisition against females because they wanted to keep them for breeding purposes only they went out in the 300 and also in the 500s and slaughtered any woman of prominence destroyed any record a prominent women especially Warriors
The video explains in detail why these things are talked about. Interesting that you didn't notice. What both sexes wear shows status, shows commerce, and economy. There is no lack of discussion concerning dress and hair styles in both sexes.

What about orthodox Judaism that even now segregates women and if the women don't obey the men simply beat them up and spit on them?
@@krissol3881Accurately or not, Einstein is quoted as saying that only one thing is truly infinite in the Universe and that is stupidity of which your comment reeks on more than one level.
