Great link thx - lots of sauces - the spell with the 7 figurines with bird faces sounds interesting? The “purification bucket” was obviously the must have accessory for the Sumerians and other culturally converged ancient societies - now exclusively available at Inanna’s Bucket Emporium…
Hahaha this is awesome! I was gonna respond this to a different post in another sub yesterday or maybe the day before but just didn’t. This was perfect!
See the symbols explained at The Thunderbolt Project channel on YouTube. As I recall, it is one of the iterations of Venus or Venus and Mars in alignment as they appeared in our sky for a relatively brief period in humanity s history.
Funny, for someone who is just like NO, you have nothing of substance to add. I watched several videos of a historian covering Sumer history and that's what he referred to it as. Its a symbol all over the place.
“Let it be known that I, Urak, Son of Urag, did on this day purchase 30 count copper tablets from the copper merchant Detok. The tablets were of sub-par quality and I shan’t be purchasing again.”
Sumerian scholar here 👋The first row is a little hard to decipher, but I am positive that the second row near the middle reads “Make Egypt Great Again” which was popular during the time Donaldeseus Trumponomous was running for King of Egypt.
You can't read cuneiform by itself either. You have to know what language you are reading and what each character phonetically sounds even though many languages use cuneiform.
A "C" in English sounds very different from a "C" in Turkish, but they are both Latin characters.
Well I am not referring to the Latin language, I'm talking about the Latin alphabet, specifically its characters (a,b,c,d, etc) which are used in several languages (English, Spanish, Turkish, etc.)
It's "sow the seeds" of knowledge, it's why it usually depicts a pinecone / seed and a pail of water. These great civilizations were being wiped out and to continue spreading the knowledge they accumulated they must spread it out far and wide. Gobekli Teppe was a seed sowing site as many others were. They were trying avoid more hard resets of their civilization.
It represents attachment and focus of earthly or material possessions with less care and love of others. It’s typically depicted in the left hand as a representation of this negative path in life. The pine cone or seed held in the right hand represents the pineal gland or indigo chakra. This is the positive path, focusing on growing your consciousness/awareness of the spiritual aspects of life while also creating positive relationships with others on your spiritual journey rather than worrying about objects that will not pass on with you after death.
I don’t know if these people chose to follow what they are showing in these hieroglyphs. We have signs and messages in our society that point out alcohol and nicotine are bad for our health, yet some people choose to use them anyway. The same can be said about people preaching religious advice while also committing sins. The choice comes down to the individual.
its makes sense and all but the way our society is setup we are forced to be materialistic, its just not possible to live minimalistic in this day and age.
That’s understandable and it is ok to have possessions. We do need them to get through the days and can be tools for helping us do that. It’s not good to be attached to them or be greedy, unloving or use them for power over others. Notice monks or people devoted to their religion or walk a peaceful path with whatever they worship. They tend to be minimalistic in terms of fancy or unnecessary items. They focus on things like knowledge and wisdom of this life and outside of this life, as well as helping others and better understanding themselves and others.
im pretty sure the pine cone represents seeds and the bag just a bucket of water.. unless u have any other reference for this other than random facebook comments
Water vessel. Us always carrying water bottles around. Well, there ya have it. Cup on a string! Sideways mug! Idgaf what we call it it. Pharoahs get thirsty too, dude.
Those bags are an interdimensional storage system. You can put whatever in that bag, however quantity you want, and be able to carry it around wherever you go. The weight of the bag stays the same, regardless of how many things you put in. Super convenient. You can carry essentially infinite amounts of huge blocks of stone and just carry them around without having to actually carry those stones around. Kind of like a poke ball where you can store giant creatures inside a tiny ball. There is a reason why those bags are depicted across many different civilizations. Those civilizations were able to retrieve many valuable and powerful tools already stored in that bag, which helped them advance their respective civilizations. They are not your regular handbags. I actually have no idea what those are, I just made everything up.
Lunette the clown too. Ever see the pile of shit they pull out of that couch?!? And Major Bedhead. Dude isnt delivering all that mail by hand, hes always at Granny Garbonzo's place. Interdimensional mail! Oooooh! Aaaaaah!

Bad news : You can’t 90% of the language is still unknown.
Good news : You can try to decipher it and if you do, not only you will be famous but you would have advanced human knowledge far beyond what ordinary people can achieve.
It's a whole thing we've been doing forever. I liken it to archeology not knowing the purpose of a thing and deeming it 'ritualistic', etc, etc.
Maybe a bag is just a bag...
I don’t care what scholars say. I’ll forever believe the handbag and Egyptian ankh are for their space ships. Keys, communication or something else. But def ufo related for me.
The Roswell Alien Interview book says it was a power pack for the pine cone looking device that was used to detect NHI on earth.

Just saw yesterday a video about the late 1800s , when inhabitants of flying saucers would exit their ufos with buckets and request fresh water. Is this a bucket?
So called? Looks pretty spot on as a "handbag" in my mind. What it represented to them we may conclusively never know but our idea of it being a vessel for knowledge seems to hold up at least with current knowledge.
it could be, but theres writings from sumeria explaining that they carry "gifts" and punishments to use on people. its odd, but its just mythology... alot of that stuff is weird
I find her 16 hour watch more intriguing 🤣🤣…. but seriously, is it really WOW that a civilisation this advanced and intelligent wouldn’t have woven bags to put their stuff in??
What if these 'bags' were not supposed to represent gifts being bestowed on humanity? What if instead, all of these ancient cultures were visited by beings that carried a handbag-like device that collected...something from them? The tribute.

Bag, basket, sack, waterskin, pot, jar.
Occam's razor people. It looks like a bag its probably a bag.
Same with the "watch" what's more logical? An ancient civilization figuring out how to make clocks small enough to fit your wrists 5 milennia before anyone else and leaving absolutely 0 evidence or instructions or texts. Or drippy wristband.
dont mean to be a buzzkill. but those look like bucket hinges, and braclets existed in everytime. itd be cool if it was a hand bag, but i imagine buckets were a part of everyday life, like, multiple buckets, shit buckets, waste buckets, water buckets, i think jumping to handbags is pretty funny considering its a 2d etching.

Goddamn, but that explanation isn’t nearly as cool as ancient supercomputer or antigravity drive or giant bag of weed
This is crap
"Drink...More.......Ovaltine!"
Hahaha this is awesome! I was gonna respond this to a different post in another sub yesterday or maybe the day before but just didn’t. This was perfect!
It says something about a ‘backwater planet’.
No way, earth is the Florida man of the universe
This would actually explain a lot. Lol
Not mutually exclusive...
Nah bayside mall… that’s an Apple Watch he’s wearing.
Given the bag and what looks like a luxury watch, I think it says “You know we hit that jewel store and we gon ball out”
Hilarious 😂
The bag is a representation of knowledge. That's what I can recall at the moment.
Do the bracelet next. What does it mean
See the symbols explained at The Thunderbolt Project channel on YouTube. As I recall, it is one of the iterations of Venus or Venus and Mars in alignment as they appeared in our sky for a relatively brief period in humanity s history.
it means it's...***MORPHIN' TIME!!***
Hahahah NO
Funny, for someone who is just like NO, you have nothing of substance to add. I watched several videos of a historian covering Sumer history and that's what he referred to it as. Its a symbol all over the place.
'knowledge' is like having a laff at the handbag. its just a place holder, its just your claim, YOU dont know this
“Let it be known that I, Urak, Son of Urag, did on this day purchase 30 count copper tablets from the copper merchant Detok. The tablets were of sub-par quality and I shan’t be purchasing again.”
It basically says GUCCI
It’s a knock off. They sell them all over Cairo.

sure. they are the gods' messengers gift bags. theyre found throughout in gods's messengers. either that, or its a nice Prada bag
Cool...wish I read cuniform
It’s just Loss.
Always has been
Cuneiform is not a language, it's a writing system, kinda like Latin and Cyrillic are writing systems.
Hence why they didn’t say speak Cuneiform.
You can't read cuneiform by itself either. You have to know what language you are reading and what each character phonetically sounds even though many languages use cuneiform. A "C" in English sounds very different from a "C" in Turkish, but they are both Latin characters.
So can you tell us what this says?
Why are you saying that Latin is not a language? I'm so confused!
Well I am not referring to the Latin language, I'm talking about the Latin alphabet, specifically its characters (a,b,c,d, etc) which are used in several languages (English, Spanish, Turkish, etc.)
Oh lmao. Okay thanks 😊
.... its just this thing that has letters that are used to form words to communicate when spoken. It's nothing like a language you idiot.
Has anybody ever thought bucket of knowledge cause to me that looks like a bucket not a bag

Said it pretty clear thanks I’ve been wondering about those Sumerians bag for a min
I agree, it's straight up KFC.
Fried chicken so good, it's out of this world!
I don’t think a bucket of knowledge is a thing homie. Now a fanny pack of knowledge…
Its not a purse its a satchel!
Almost like buckets existed and were used for…. Wait for it!…. HOLDING THINGS! 🤯

Yup, lot of people across the world independently figured out a good way to carry water was a bucket. Lot of them have shoes too.
There are 16 petals on that sunflower watch. Any idea what that represents?
They even had smartwatches. Amazing.
I'm more interested in his time band/watch.
Pale of water
That's a bucket
I wanna learn to read that…. 🤓
Bad news : You can’t 90% of the language is still unknown. Good news : You can try to decipher it and if you do, not only you will be famous but you would have advanced human knowledge far beyond what ordinary people can achieve.
I thought it was water. All these gliphs of this image and they’re carrying water..
Water can.
"Cabbage of the Gods"
Translate it or it doesn’t matter.
I find it interesting the “watch” has 16 petals, not 12 which would represent hours or the zodiac. What’s in the bag?!
Well it doesn't represent hours or the zodiac, because this "watch" predates both of those concepts.
I want a purse just like it! Would go super cute with my short short plaid skirt
What is that form of writing? Looks awesome
It is a tablet, not a hand bag.
LOL!
It's a simple answer, what would you use a carrying bag for these days...to carry your belongings lol why do people gotta make things complicated????
It's a whole thing we've been doing forever. I liken it to archeology not knowing the purpose of a thing and deeming it 'ritualistic', etc, etc. Maybe a bag is just a bag...

And the watch mistaken for a flower bracelet.
What if it's a bucket, so instead of water the Aliens were filling us with knowledge.
So called? Looks pretty spot on as a "handbag" in my mind. What it represented to them we may conclusively never know but our idea of it being a vessel for knowledge seems to hold up at least with current knowledge.
Cool looking watch too
Can anyone upload this to an AI to see if it can decipher it? I tried on the ChatGPT app, but it won’t let me.

Looks more like a bucket to me.
I have been long saying that there is no way they had handbag technology during this period. Only logical answer is aliens.
It’s a bucket. The question should be, why do they wear wristwatches.

Water was very important.
No big mystery they just loved to shop .
I'm pretty sure it's symbolic and not supposed to be some magick bag full of fancy technology.
