At least. Ur was destroyed about 2000 BC, and Abraham likely departed
shortly before that so 3123 BC is far too soon and written in Sumerian
would be unlikely beyond it's destruction. So a Sumerian saw a shooting
star. But that's not news, so it's tied to a biblical event - now it's
news!! Just like when Bob ballard wanted to explore Lake Van looking
for Noah's ark. Now, I have a picture on my web page that very well
could be Adam's altar. Anybody notice?

I thought this was an April fools joke, but apparently, it's not a joke.

If the dating is correct, isn't this about a 1000 years before Sodom and
Gomarah's judgement?
