Babil Kronikleri

Nebukadnezar'ın erken yıllarının kroniği, MÖ 590 (ABC 05)

L. W. King'in Hanedan Kroniği'in bir parçası (K. 8532) için yaptığı çizgi çalışması^[1]

Babil Kronikleri, Babil tarihindeki önemli olayları kaydeden yaklaşık 45 tabletten oluşan genel hatları ile tanımlanmış bir dizidir.^[2]

Bunlar antik tarih yazımının gelişmesinde ilk adımlardan birini temsil etmektedir. Babil Kronikleri, Babil çivi yazısıyla yazılmış olup Nabonassar'ın hükümdarlığından Part Dönemi'ne kadar olan dönemi kapsamaktadır. Tabletler, büyük olasılıkla Astronomi Günlükleri'nden kaynak alan Babilli astronomlar ("Keldaniler") tarafından oluşturulmuştur.

Tabletlerin hemen hemen hepsinin, 19. yüzyılda yapılan bilinmeyen kazılar sonucu antikacılar aracılığıyla edinilen ve bir zamanlar British Museum koleksiyonunda bulunan kronikler olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Kroniklerden sadece üçünün kökeni belirtilmiştir.^[2]

Kronikler, günümüz Babil tarihinin büyük bölümleri için "ana anlatıyı" sağlar.^[2]

The "Babylonian Chronicles" are a miscellaneous, ill-defined group of texts… The most influential classification is that of A. K.Grayson. His book Assyrian and Babylonian Chronicles (ABC) is the starting point of any study undertaken on the topic. It assembled a variety of chronographic texts, including Assyrian chronicles and other writings which may not belong to the ill-defined chronicle genre (see below)… About forty-five Babylonian chronicles are now known. This includes the twenty-four texts published by Grayson in Assyrian and Babylonian Chronicles and several new additions. The exact number is unclear because the genre is ill-defined… Most chronicles are preserved on clay tablets retrieved from Iraqi soil during illicit diggings at the end of the nineteenth century. In the corpus presented by Grayson, only three chronicles (in most of their copies) are provenanced, but these texts are atypical and their attribution to the chronicle genre is disputed… Despite the lack of formal provenance, most chronicles are regarded as products of the city of Babylon.
