To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is further curious to remember that in the Persse of iEschylus, the ghost of Darius is raised by incantations in the Barbar tongue (BoA^r, a/ixaTos 'BcOJiv, 1. 659).
Digitized by Google EsBAY III. THE URARDA CONNECTED WITH THE AKKAD. 205 branched off, as Herodotus himself affirms,' from the Phrygians, who were themselves of Thracian origin. This ethnic difference, however, between Ai-menia and Ararat, notwithstanding the geo- graphical interchangeability of the names, is a subject of so much... mterest, and so entirely opposed to the received opinion, that it may be as well to state in some detail the grounds upon which the argument is foimded.
3. The connexion, then, of Urarda with the Babylonian tribe of Akkad is proved by the application in the Inscriptions of the ethnic title of Burbur (?) to the Armenian king, who was contemporary with Sargon at tne commencement of his reign, and who may be thus supposed to have been the immediate predecessor of Argistis ; and the met, mentioned in the Behistun Inscription, of the Armenian Arahha having personated Nabochodrossor, the son of Nabonidus, is strongly confirmatory of this ethnic relationship; but there is nothing to prove whether the Burbur or Akkad of Babylonia de- scended in a very remote age from the mountains to colonise the plains, or whether the Urardians were refugees of a later period driven northward by the growing power of the Semites.
