Fourth Floor THE EVENING Story of Man’s Fall Recounted STAR, WASHINGTON, 1,100 Y ears Before Moses’ Time A Babylonian tablet described as re- lating the fall of man eleven hundred years before the account written by Moses in the Book of Genesis, which has heretofore been supposed to be the original and first account, was explained by Edward Chiera, assistant professor of Assyriology at the University of Pennsylvania, in his lecture on “The Fall of Man in Babylonian Literature,” before the members of the “Circolo Italiano” at the residence of Dr. and Mrs. Douglas Birnle, 1711 19th street, last night. _The ancient tablet was discovered at Nippur in southern Babylonia, and from | the Sumerian writing can be dated to- | ward the end of Isin and the beginning of the first dynasty, which was 2.200 years before Christ. According to Prof. Chiera the Hebrews did not write the account until a thousand years before Christ, which leaves no question as to tho source of the story of man's fall. The tablet is broken in parts, and by the abrupt way in which the story inscribed on It starts and finishes little doubt is left of the fact that this particular volume is but a part of & more descriptive story. Tranalation of Story. The literal translation of the ac- count inscribed on the clay tablet with the aid of the anclent stylus reads as follows: “I have not been obedient to thee. My heart (?) is full of fear, | is full of fear, after that. Fear. weep- ing has been ‘cast at sending of they call. And I, at they call, from may appearance I was fleeing.” (Here ends the discourse of a human and follows the words of a God.) “Thy humanity, thy body, has not been freed, for hu- manity the words of understanding are not. Finish they weeping. From my place go into the desert. To me forever, for taking the ‘tree which establishes (the use of) clothing.’ As am outcast, thou shalt not return. The reed which frees from death inferior beings shall not take. Thou shalt never take. In no way whatever after this thou shalt reach release.” ‘The text then goes on to relate that since the menials have reached the food their eyes have been opened, and ends by declaring that humanity shall know abundance. Prof. Chiera declares that the similarities with the Hebrew story were too apparent to be ignored, for the disobedience of man is clearly ex- pressed in “the tablet—the fear and weeping as a consequence, the call- ing by God and the flight and the command to go—all concur with the biblical story. Origin in Babylonia? Other stories which Prof. Chiera spoke of and are products of Baby- lonian literature in a great measure all described the fall of man in ways while not altogether the same as each other were enough in circum- stance to show great similarity. Woman seems to have taken a very important part in these accounts, being the chief character, pointed out Prof. Chiera, who declared that he D. ¢, FRIDAY, thought the biblical story blaming woman for the fall of man has had deal to do with retarding her B the story of the fall of man begins in a garden and the Hebrews despised agriculture, and because of the mention in Genesis of the two rivers, which, no doubt, were the Euphrates and Tigrls in Babylonia, and the finding of these varlous tablets, together with other details, Prof. Chiera is convinced jthat the Hebrews got their account of the fall of man from the ancient Babylonians. —_— PLEA FOR EDUCATION OF INDIAN CHILDREN Better Facilities Urged in the An- nual Report of Commissioner Charles H. Burke. Additional facilities for education of Indian children is recommended by Charles H. Burke, commissioner of Indian affairs, in his annual report, made public foday. The number of Indian children receiving education in government boarding schools and state public schools was 3,000 more than in any previous year, he said, but tacllities are stil] needed in the south- west. he Indians, adults as well as chil- n, in the semi-arid sections_are anxious for further education,,Com- missioner Burke reported, and any further denial of such enlightenment is unjustified, especially in the light of the government's treaty of 1868, pledging a school for every: thirty children. The Indian service also is desirous of further medical and health facil- | ities, he said, us the Indians were |- DECEMBER 8, 1922. never so receptive of medical treat- ment; the medicine men are passing and the government hospitals are well patronized. A hospital in every In- dian reservation is recommended to provide especially for the sick aged, of whom there are many without homes or means for proper treatment. The government, it was stated, is rapidly increasing Its tuition contracts with local school boards for the en- rollment of Indian children whose parents pay no taxes. Operations in oil were stimulated throughout the productive areas of Indian territory. due largely to the advance in market prices from $1 to $2 per barrel. Promising develop- ment has been made in the Shoshone reservation, Wyo., the Crow and Blackfeet reservations, Mont., and on Navajo treaty land in Arizona and New Mexico, but the largest output continues to be in Oklahoma, and par- ticularly in the Osage reservation.
