Definitely need my reading glasses for that hymnal.
“...perhaps most significantly, provides valuable information about the role of women in Babylonian society, including their duties as priestesses.”
Wonders whether sammiches had been invented yet...
“Read the full hymn and the original scholarly article”
I scrolled through the article and didn’t see the text of the hymn in english.
Looks like Bringing in the sheaves
Is there any way to tell how it was sung?
I have learned a lot in my very long life but I still do not understand music or its history. I may do a deep dive later to learn the history of notes etc.
