(p07) Chapter 1 Dawn Term 3

When BC5600 period came, the rise in the sea level which troubled Askans was also finished, and the sea retreated little by little.

The faith to a big tree was produced among fishermen these days.

God of the big tree which produces the canoe which is the food of itself a life was called "Takagi's God."

The priest was called "Takagi Musubi" in a meaning called the person who connects to Takagi's God.

To the inside of it, the Hara faith and the Takagi faith which are originally another kind were mixed.

Takagi's God is solar incarnation.

And the conception that a Takagi Musubi was a Miko was produced.

The original Miko still existed in the ground of Nirai- Kanai.

But,Nirai-Kanai was on the decline by a repeated flood and a repeated drought.

The status of the head family had gone to ruin also in the Aska expert.

The man of power of the land came to call himself in a Miko or a Hiko freely.

Since Kaliland declined by serious religion confrontation, Ameland turned into the country which prospered most among the city state of Askans.

It was accepted that the "great priest of Ame" who is a Ame's Miko had authority most in many Mikoes.

In the Ameland, highest God was a Ame's God.

The second God is Takagi's God.

The third God is Kali God.

Such rank was decided.

The status where the status as a priest of Takagi Musubi also ranked second to a great priest of Ame was guaranteed.

In the Kaliland, the priest " Kali Musubi" of Kali God reigned as the highest grade.

In BC 5132 years, the huge tidal wave attacked to the Gulf of Cambay.

The rise in the sea level started again.

Much cultivated land is spilt out and the right harbor was also destroyed.

Many of Takagi-Musubi tribes were engaged in the fishing.

Loss of a harbor was their life-and-death problem.

They decided to abandon the declined Ameland as a result of the tribe meeting.

They were decided to emigrate to the ground of the Mesopotamia with a deep-sea-fishing base.

The green field which was suitable there at agriculture spread out.

Those days, the rise in the sea level was carried out to around Hammar lake.

About 200km of the mouths of rivers in Tigris and the Euphrates River was separated from the present place.

The native Shem tribe has reached at the Neolithic era, and formed the primitive tribe state.

They also understand agriculture and wheat cultivation had already also been performed.

The Takagi-Musubi tribe left for Great Navigation by the convoy of several 100 boats in winter of BC5029.

They arrived at the Tigris river mouth of a river in abbreviation January.

Takagi-Musubi tribe's population was a little less than 10,000 persons.

The Shem tribe who amounts to several 100,000 persons was living around the.

They judged that the confrontation with the Shem tribe did not bring a desirable result.

They made an effort to contact the Shem tribe fraternally.

They did not use superior military power overwhelmingly.

By offering the technology of medical treatment, agriculture, and a fishing etc., they succeeded in maintaining a friendship relation with the Shem tribe.

In the beginning, the Takagi-Musubi tribe made the base the fishery base which suited the Tigris river mouth of a river, and planned city construction.

However, as for the neighborhood, it was crowded with the Shem tribe's tribe states.

They chose the Euphrates River mouth of a river as the proposed site, in order to secure farmland.

That place was the wilderness where population is thin.

The city was completed in BC 5125 years.

Since the mercury ore(hnip) was mined from the surrounding mountain, this city state was called Nippurland

When the Ameland declined, the center of Askans had returned to the Kaliland.

Although it was separated from Kaliland and no less than 6000km of Nippur with distance in a straight line, influence existed.

It is a reason that Askans excelled in navigation.

In the Kaliland, the influence which believes in God called Susa (frightful) was strengthening power.

While Kali God was handed down by the private sector, various other selves came to exist.

It came to call Susa God the divine nature in connection with destruction of them.

The conservatives worshipped Kali God as God absolutely.

Therefore, they denied existence of the other self.

The conservatives grasped the political real power of Kaliland and had distributed profits in private by the arrogant policy.

In BC 5120 years, the new merchants to whom it leaked from the distribution, and young military men started the coup d'etat for Susa God to reliance.

However, they fail and the Susa group was banished.

The banished Susa group depended for Ameland and moved.

The leaders of Ameland feared causing a complication to Kaliland, and refused them.

The Susa group stayed on around Ameland and the peace near the border got worse.

The great priest of Ame saw off the messenger who requests acceptance from Nippurland, in order to expel them.

Nippurland had received support in that time of national construction from the Ameland.

They were not able to take and refuse the proposal.

However, they did not get used to the mind of accepting a pagan, either.

Then, in BC 5118 years, they decided to improve the colonization city of the Askans who suited the Kalhe river middle of Iran, and to provide for the Susa group.

In the next year, the Susa group's people have emigrated there in a body.

They named the town "Susa."

The city planning of Nippurland progressed favorably and had great influence on the surrounding tribe state.

In Nippurland, there are also implications of preservation of territory, Shem tribe's Royal Family's children were accepted as hostages, and it educated to them.

For the Shem tribe depending on nomadism and primitive agriculture, the irrigation agricultural technique, the trawl fishing method by the structure ship, etc. were wonder.

The Shem tribe called God of Takagi deified by the fishing boat "Enki."

The Shem tribes ran short the amount of ingestion of animal protein chronically.

They were afflicted by the endemic disease resulting from it.

Several 100 years before to hunting activities were difficult for them by sharp decrease of the carnivorous animal by the climate change.

Supply of the meat by nomadism was also small.

They looked at the fish supplied to an inexhaustible supply by the fixed net and trawl by the Takagi-Musubi tribe.

They interpreted it as the blessing of Enki God.

The Shem tribe had the tradition "Enki was God of the fish which descended from heavens."

The conception was projected on Takagi's God.

As collateral which supplies fish to the Shem tribe, Nippurland demanded offer of the labor force for mining of the lumber used as the material of a ship or a building, or cultivation and a copper mine.

The young man of the Shem tribe excellent in military power was employed as a mercenary soldier.

In Nippurland, the silver which can be taken as a copper by-product was adopted as money.

Among Askans, the cone shell was traditionally used as money.

In Nippurland, the cone shell was unextractable.

Gold and silver held good as quasi money with jewelry, such as a pearl and a ruby, also in India.

A monetary concept will travel also to the surrounding Shem tribe, and will restrain them economically as a result.
