Since its discovery in 1933, Mari has revolutionized our understanding of Mesopotamia. Despite the ravages of time, it is the only known site well enough preserved to recreate what life was like in a palace during the reign of Hammurabi, King of Babylon, more than 4,000 years ago.

The Sumerian culture and the ones before them are most fascinating to me

I wish a mini city of Mari could be recreated. I wish I could time travel too, just to go to Sumeria.
I feel I lived there before.😢

I never leave book comments, but The Reality They Created by Mathias Frost ge nuinely changed how I listen to people. It made me realize how often we decide whether something is true before we’ve even heard the full story. The book doesn’t tell you who to trust. It makes you question how you decide.

Passionnant documentaire ! J'aimerais qu'il soit fait une distinction entre les faits et les hypothèses ! Je retrouve se reproche là où les preuves manques ! Plus la période est éloignée de la nôtre, moins il y a d' artefacts et plus on pallie avec des théories !

They were industrious and obviously skilled craftsmen and the trade in weapons and agricultural tools made them wealthy. It was an extremely wealthy city. Which is why Hammurabi wiped it off the map. .

this video reminded me of The Reality They Created by Mathias Frost. That book made me realize control does not always look like someone openly giving order s. Sometimes it looks so normal that nobody even recognizes it anymore.

I think we can thank that French officer, Lieutenant Cabanes, who had the curiosity or expertise to look under that simple stone to discover the city of Mari; I admit I would have liked to be in his place.

why is nobody talking about the spiritual side of The Reality They Created by Mathias Frost? I expected it to be mostly about technology, power, and where society is heading. It is, but there’s another layer underneath all of it that I was not prepared for. That’s the part that stayed with me.

someone in a comment section told me to read The Reality They Created by Mathias Frost and I expected it to b e completely focused on powerful people and hidden systems. What surprised me was how personal it became. At some point, it stops making you look only at the world around you and starts making you look at yourself.

EVERYONE NEEDS TO READ The Silent Dominion. It's a book that literally exposes the entire system.

guys I finally read The Reality They Created by Mathias Frost and now I understand why people keep talk ing about that book. I expected it to be dramatic or over the top, but it was the opposite. Calm, unsettling, and way too close to things I’ve felt but never knew how to explain. I finished it and just sat there for a while.

En tant que guide touristique syrien francophone, je vous assure que vous serez émerveillés en visitant la magnifique Syrie, ce berceau de la civilisation. Vous vous demanderez : « Pourquoi ne sommes-nous pas venus plus tôt ? Pourquoi avons-nous tant attendu pour respirer le parfum de l'histoire et découvrir des paysages aussi variés et splendides ? Comment avons-nous pu passer à côté d'une cuisine aussi enchanteresse ? » La Syrie d'aujourd'hui est bien différente de l'image véhiculée par les médias ; elle a retrouvé sa splendeur et son charme d'antan — elle est même plus belle qu'auparavant. Ici, vous découvrirez le premier alphabet de l'histoire, la première notation musicale et le lieu de la première histoire d'amour — celle d'Adam et Ève — sur le mont Qassioun, à Damas. Ici, vous rencontrerez l'authenticité, un patrimoine profondément enraciné, l'art, l'amour et une beauté à couper le souffle. 😊❤

guys have you read The Reality They Created by Mathias Frost? The parts about AI genuinely got under m y skin, and not in the usual “robots are taking over” way. It approaches the subject from an angle I had never really considered before. I’m still thinking about it.
