NONE of these things is a Sumerian invention. There is no way any of them can be viewed as such. Thus, if the Bible is to be interpreted as if these things are sumerian inventions, then the Bible is flat out false and there is little sense in claiming that it teaches true theology in the face of such absurd falsity.
The Sumerians are truly intriguing. My key flocus has been on the Akkadians who in all likelihood did eminate from Adam himself. In fact, the Sumerians referred to a list of slaves as adambi, probably a slang referrence to their Adamic roots. That's in my book.
