| Zusammenfassung: | Shulgi-simti is an important example of a woman involved in sponsoring religious activities though having a family life. An Ox of One’s Own will be of interest to Assyriologists, particularly those interested in Early Mesopotamia, and scholars working on women in religion. An Ox of One’s Own centers on the archive of a woman who died about 2050 B.C., one of King Shulgi’s many wives. Her birth name is unknown, but when she married, she became Shulgi-simti, "Suitable for Shulgi." Attested for only about 15 years, she existed among a court filled with other wives, who probably outranked her. A religious foundation was run on her behalf whereby courtiers, male and female, donated livestock for sacrifices to an unusual mix of goddesses and gods.Previous scholarship has declared this a rare example of a queen conducting women’s religion, perhaps unusual because they say she came from abroad. The conclusions of this book are quite different.An Ox of One’s Own lays out the evidence that another woman was queen at this time in Nippur while Shulgi-simti lived in Ur and was a third-ranking concubine at best, with few economic resources. Shulgi-simti’s religious exercises concentrated on a quartet of north Babylonian goddesses |

Sep 2017) Shulgi-simti is an important example of a woman involved in sponsoring religious activities though having a family life. An Ox of One’s Own will be of interest to Assyriologists, particularly those interested in Early Mesopotamia, and scholars working on women in religion. An Ox of One’s Own centers on the archive of a woman who died about 2050 B.C., one of King Shulgi’s many wives. Her birth name is unknown, but when she married, she became Shulgi-simti, "Suitable for Shulgi." Attested for only about 15 years, she existed among a court filled with other wives, who probably outranked her. A religious foundation was run on her behalf whereby courtiers, male and female, donated livestock for sacrifices to an unusual mix of goddesses and gods.Previous scholarship has declared this a rare example of a queen conducting women’s religion, perhaps unusual because they say she came from abroad. The conclusions of this book are quite different.An Ox of One’s Own lays out the evidence that another woman was queen at this time in Nippur while Shulgi-simti lived in Ur and was a third-ranking concubine at best, with few economic resources. Shulgi-simti’s religious exercises concentrated on a quartet of north Babylonian goddesses In English Ur-Nammu Ur, König (DE-588)12139672X gnd rswk-swf Schulgi Ur, König (DE-588)118642294 gnd rswk-swf Harem Ishtar Shulgi-simti Third Dynasty of Ur Ur-III-Zeit Kult (DE-588)4033535-5 gnd rswk-swf Religion (DE-588)4049396-9 gnd rswk-swf Königshof (DE-588)4164392-6 gnd rswk-swf Konkubine (DE-588)4332221-9 gnd rswk-swf Frau (DE-588)4018202-2 gnd rswk-swf Ur (DE-588)4062072-4 gnd rswk-swf Schulgi Ur, König (DE-588)118642294 p Ur-Nammu Ur, König (DE-588)12139672X p Ur (DE-588)4062072-4 g Königshof (DE-588)4164392-6 s Frau (DE-588)4018202-2 s Konkubine (DE-588)4332221-9 s Religion (DE-588)4049396-9 s Kult (DE-588)4033535-5 s 1\p DE-604 Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe 978-1-5015-1447-0 https://doi.org/10.1515/9781501505263 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
