The earliest records of plague occurred in the ancient Anatolia Plateau，Tading back to the period of ancient Assyria in this area to trade and colonial activities，The archives in the Syrian region in the late Bronze Age also recorded a plague in the Little Asian region。Hebi people were founded in the 19th -12th century BC in the founding of the country in Little Asia，Its heyday and Egypt of the New Kingdom period、Babylon、Midisney、Central Assyria、Aceta and other powerful political forces coming to the east for the other。Heri people are called "Romans in the East" for their outstanding military achievements。After the Hugai people entered the master Anatolia，Store in at least three types of Herbish literature with rich records on plague。One is historical literature，The historical traceing part of the incidents that occur from previous generations or even more ancient times，Some of them involve plague。The second is that there are some ritual records about the dispel of the plague in the ritual literature。Its three，Some of the literatures of Hepi people praying to the gods are to pray to the gods to drive out the plague，It is mainly concentrated in the era of the King of Murshi II during the new kingdom of Herzi (1321 BC 1295 BC)，But there is a writing style of a plague prayer is Zhonghe ladder，Among them, the independent Kiza Vatna country。The era of the literature should be earlier than that of the new kingdom of Herza, Supiru Liu Ma's reign (about 1344 BC 1322 BC)，May record the plague that occurred during the period of the Kingdom of the Kingdom。

Comprehensive Hetai people's record on plague，We Bet365 app download can reconstruct the sequence of related historical events。Hebi New Kingdom Supilu Liuma I，Egyptian Pharaoh Tutankhamun's death，His post -to -the -letter King Hebi King，Seek a son as his husband and become the King of Egypt。Before that，Only the priority of the Egyptian king married a foreign princess，Egyptian princess never marry outside，Not letting foreign princes come to Egypt as king。So，This proposal in Egypt is unusual，King Heri thinks this is a trap，Sending staff to Egypt to find out。After returning, the authenticity of this request was confirmed，Another letter of complaints from the Queen of Egypt，In the letter, the prince of the king of Hezi again urged the prince of Hezi to come。Supiru Liuma I finally decided to send a prince to，But the news that the prince was killed during the trip (or after arriving in Egypt) came，This becomes an important fuse of the war between the two countries。After that，The ownership of Amuka, Syria, becomes an incident of the dispute between the two countries，War erupted。Although Hezi won a preliminary victory，But the plague broke out during the captured Egyptian prisoners of war，and transmitted it to Hezi Ren，It even directly led to the death of King Supiru Runi I and his successor, Alduwa II, died in a short time，Supiru Liu Ma's young son Murshley II then ascended the throne。According to the series of plague prayers he released, it can be known，The plague has been raging for at least 20 years in the land of Hezi，The entire country is deeply harmed，The king prays for the gods to stop the plague。

In the different texts of this series of historical events，Heri people try to find the source of the plague，Detable to eliminate plague in a targeted way，But there are obvious differences in the plague in different texts。In the second plague prayer of the thunderstorm Bet365 lotto review god in Murshi II，King He Step mentioned that he found two mud boards that recorded the past events under the instructions of the oxic.，One of them records that the previous king had sacrifice the Euphrates River，Another one records the vows that He Step and Egypt have made each other in front of God。But when the father of Murshri II is in place，Heti stopped sacrifice for the Youth Fat La La River，Battle with Egypt，Vowing the vows of God，This leads to the punishment of the gods，Egyptian prisoners of war becomes the source of the transmission of plague to Hezi。

but，Another prayer published by Murshri II has different expressions for the incidents that year。In this literature，Murshri II traces his fault that his father once committed，That is Supiru Liuma I and its same party killed the original heirs, the original heirs, Xiao Taria，Vowing the loyalty of being a subordinate，This became the reason why the gods punished the Heri people through the plague。But at the same time，During the reign of Supiru Liu Ma，Herbon still "countless people and cattle and sheep，Captives brought back from the enemy can also work，Nothing is destroyed "。This is contradictory with the records of the previous documents on the outbreak of the outbreak in prisoners of war。

The plague did not disappear immediately because of the king's prayer，Murshri II continues to pray to God，The traceability of the plague changes again: the king believes that the gods abandon humans，The plague originated from his grandfather Tataria II era。Hechi suffered a crisis at that time，Fair by the enemy，The population is reduced due to the plague，Temple Crimination，Destiny of the servant，The ceremony was ignored。But then the early stage of Supiru Liuma I，King Jing God，The country re -gets the gods of the gods。Until Hezi attacked Egypt，The bet365 Play online games death brought by the plague bothered Hebi again。Murshri II attributes the origin of the plague to its grandfather Tataria II，Supiru Lijima I just broke out again。

You can see，In different documents，The cause of the same catastrophic incident may be diverse，Complement can be formed between some records，But there may be some contradictions。The three documents involved in the previous article are all from the reign of the same king Mulshi II，It is difficult to determine the order in order，But it is clearly or vaguely mentioned that the war with Egypt。About this constant practice of causal detection of current events from the past history，It is regarded by some scholars as the historical writing methods of ancient Greece and Israel after some scholars，All try to find the secular original committee of the current incident、Explore "Truth"，Historical writing better than the ancient two river basins and Egypt。

For this concept，We need to examine the specific method and purpose of the people who trace back to the past。Different from our cognition today，The traceability of the traceability of the traceability of the people may not appear in the so -called historical literature。The classification of Hezi literature is due to the need for research convenience，by Hechi scholars performed in modern times，But the content of a specific document cannot be completely corresponding to its classification。At the same time，A specific topic may also involve multiple different types of documents，Records of the origin of the plague may appear in the traceability part of historical events，Records of the method of breaking the plague are common in religious ritual literature。In the ceremony literature，Heri people recorded in detail the method of using the "scapegoat" method to bet365 Play online games "degenerate": the king took off his clothes，Put on two captives (each of men and women) in the two captives (one of men and women)，and cooperate with the corresponding spells; if the irritated enemy gods drop the plague，These two captives will be punished on their behalf (male captives accept the punishment of male gods，Female captives accept the punishment of female gods)。Before these two captives，A bull and ewe with various colors of wool -decorated with various colors，A soothing as an enemy male and female gods。

The attribution of plague in the plague prayer is not only secular causes，There is also the anger of the gods that are unknown。Heri people have given many forms of response to this，Sometimes I do not ask the reason for God's penalty，Instead, the attitude of the gods to the people of the gods is analogy as a benevolent servant who has made mistakes，persuaded God to terminate the plague; or through the way of love，If the plague continues，No servants are presented to God for the supply of bread and wine，Using this semi -praying half as a threat to persuade the god to let the plague fall。At the same time，In the literature that seems to be filled with the historical process of the gods dominated by the two river basins，If the Epic Epic of Ninggulta and Salg for the Epic and Salgen II，There are also plots of "secular traceability" and finding "truth"; legal litigation documents and medical documents also reflect the cognition of people in the two river basins for causality。In addition，In the Treaty Literature，Take the peace treaty of Latinus II in Egypt and King Hatshi 3 as an example，At the beginning, the friendly relationship between the two countries will be traced from ancient times。Where，The first part of the treaty traces the past，This is the tradition of the Hezi Treaty; but Bet365 app download tracing the past back to the era of ancient myths，This is the tradition of Egypt。So，The treaty's literature shows the two traditional combinations of history (secular) traceability and myth traceability。In the Hugai Literature，Contains about 10%of historical content，and religious and ritual literature account for the largest proportion，This is also the main source of literature involving the content of the plague。The religious context of the text that explores the cause of the plague is beyond doubt，Although the specific method is with myth、The way of ritual is different from the past Egyptian traditions，But the dominance and participation of the gods in the past and current events of the gods are consistent。

If the traceability of the Herbitan people's trace on the plague is to find a way to eliminate the plague，Not deliberately distinguished whether it is a secular causality or a deity intervention，In other historical documents of Hebi people，such as Anta Literature、Political will of Hatshi I.、Tielie Ping Jili Order、The Book of Matters of Supiru Lijima I and the self -defense remarks of Hatshili III，It can be seen that the main function of historical events is to provide a legitimate or legitimate basis for the action or position taken by the king at the moment。So，Rather than saying that Herzi people are better than the contemporary two river basins and Egyptian civilization in the historical exploration of cause and effect，It is better to say that historical narratives are also a political rhetoric for Herzi people。Although a negative evaluation of the king's individual is extremely rare in the French civilization before the later dynasty，Heri people can do it，But in terms of the intervention and influence of the historical process，and historical writing as a means of bet365 live casino games constructing political legitimacy at that time，Hezi Civilization may reflect stronger consistency instead of specialty in the Bronze Age East Mediterranean civilization circle，The record of the plague is a typical case of the historical writing characteristics of Herzi people。
