What do we know about the woman who was given the elaborate burial known as PG
800?
The forensic examination of her remains, undertaken by London’s Natural History
Museum, indicates that she was roughly 40 years old when she died. She stood
just under five feet tall. Her name and title are known from the short
inscription on one of three cylinder seals found on her person. The two
cuneiform signs that compose her name were initially read as “Shub-ad” in
Sumerian. Today, we think they should be read in Akkadian as “Pu-abi” (or, more
correctly, “Pu-abum,” meaning “word of the Father”). Her title is “eresh” (sometimes
mistakenly read as “nin”), and means “queen.”
In early Mesopotamia, women, even elite women, were generally described in
relation to their husbands. For example, the inscription on the cylinder seal
of the wife of the ruler of the city-state of Lagash (to the east of Ur) reads
“Bara-namtara, wife of Lugal-anda, ruler of the city-state of Lagash.” The fact
that Puabi is identified without the mention of her husband may indicate that
she was queen in her own right. If so, she probably reigned prior to the time
of the First Dynasty of Ur, whose first ruler is known from the Sumerian King
List as Mesannepada. Inscribed artifacts from the Seal Impression Strata (SIS)
layers above the royal tombs at Ur name Mesannepada, King of Kish, an honorific
used by rulers claiming control over all of southern Mesopotamia.
The fact that Puabi is identified without the mention of her husband may
indicate that she was queen in her own right.
This diverse group of objects includes items from Puabi’s dressing table, such
as her cosmetics. The semicircular object with carved relief showing a lion
attacking a caprid (a sheep or goat) is the lid of a poorly preserved silver
box that contained kohl, a black pigment, used to highlight the eyes. The
cylinder seal bears the name “Abarage,” whose identity is unknown. Woolley
believed Abarage to be Puabi’s husband.
Cylinder Seal of Queen Puabi
of Ancient UR

This is a replica ofthe cylinder seal found beside the
body of the Queen buried in the burial pit along with the spectacular gold head
dress. The original seal was made of Lapis Lazuli. Lapis Lazuli at the time
became synonymous with wealth and splendor and was attributed to the gods and
heros. Most Lapis was imported from Badakhshan in Afghanistan. Lapis is
actually a rock not a mineral like many other materials used for seals,
actually belonging to the marble family. Calcite plus the lazuli, which caused
the blue colour gave Lapis Lazuli.
The seal bears the Queens name written in ancient
Sumerian and is a very large seal.(50mm x 25mm - 2" x 1") The
impression depicts a banqueting scene.
A group of people, following the affirmation of Queen Nin Puabi in ancient
Sumerian texts that state that she was a direct descendant of the Annunaki,
asked the Natural History Museum in London to perform DNA testing of the
queen’s remaining s which are being kept in the museum. After they got no
response at all in spite of insisting several years, the cause is closed.

Even if
the claim is being considered ridiculous, one has to wonder why the museum
didn’t give way to such an investigation if the money was already there –
either to show that scholars are right, concerning the Annunaki, or to have a
spectacular result in scientific research.

Dear

Supporter,
Thank you
for signing Zecharia Sitchin’s petition to the Natural History Museum in London

Sitchin passed away on October 9, 2010. We, his publishers, continued to pursue
his mission with this petition, but after three years the Museum has not
responded. Thus, we are closing the effort.
