## 2443 BC - LUGAL NEMROKAR ESTABLISHES KIENGIR

When Ragu was 40 as preserved by Michael Syrus and Bar Hebraeus, or in 2443 BC, Nemrot Kashron had himself crowned LuGal NemroKar of KiEngir (formerly Shenaur) with his capitals at Babili and Uruk now known as Eridu and Unug-Kullaba. He further declared this his year 25, counting from the start of the tower, now called *E-abzu*. He also decreed the official language EmeGir, a constructed language for purposes of resolving differences among the tower builders who spoke dialects of Akkadi, a common form of Adami among the Semites, or Ernitawy dialects among Hamites, or Yafeti dialects among Japhethites.

The ancient Irish record Auraicept na n-eces, a document added to periodically over millennia, describes the linguistic confusion among the builders thus:

*When one of them would say "Fetch me a stone* [cloch] *it was a stick* [crand] *he would bring, to wit, the slabs on which the mortar was mixed and the mallets by which it was mixed, these are the sticks and stones which they were talking about.*
In Adami (Ge'ez), stone and stick are ***Eben*** and ***Ets***. In Akkadi pronounced ***Abenu*** and ***Itsu***. In Ernitawy, ***Iner*** is stone and ***(Ne)khet*** is stick. The official words in Nemrokar's Emegir became ***Na*** and ***Ngish*** but this did more to exacerbate than to resolve the language confusion.

Antoine Couillard indicated the same year, 2443 BC, for when Nicopolis in Pontus was founded under the monarch of Armenia, apparently Scytha son of Kush; as well as the year when Sem, whom he erroneously makes the same as Melketsedek, settled at Solima near Mt Tabor. The Clementine story is that Sem took Melketsedek aged 15, son of Malikh and Yotsedek, to Debre `Ararat on Noh's passing, where they retrieved the coffins of 'Adam and Heywan (Eve) and transported them to a cave in the holy hill Golgotha where Jerusalem is. Shem then invested Melketsedek there as a priest of monotheism, telling his parents he had perished. His father Malikh was a son of Cainan, and also described as a 'king of Canaan'; this may refer to a time when the land bore the name of the Semitic Cainan, before Kene'an (Canaan) son of Ham squatted there in c. 2417 BC. Thus this probably did not take place upon Noh's death in 2405 BC, but more likely at the time when he departed for the west in 2451 BC. This would place the birth of Melketsedek in approximately 2466 BC, and 2443 BC, after 8 years, is when he and Sem returned to the Holy Land.
