Why the Sumerian Texts Begin in the Middle of History | History for Sleep

When scholars first translated the Sumerian tablets, they found no true beginning.
The texts open not with creation, but with memory — kings already ruling, cities already built, knowledge already known. It’s as if the Sumerians were continuing a story that began long before them.

In this softly spoken History for Sleep documentary, we travel through the King List, the Eridu Genesis, and ancient flood myths that describe a world reset — where civilization restarts after something vast was lost.
Could humanity’s first written history actually be the middle chapter of a much older story?

Told in a calm, reflective tone, this episode blends archaeology, mythology, and quiet meditation, inviting you to drift into sleep while contemplating the silence between civilizations.

💡 In this episode, you’ll discover:
– Why the Sumerian texts start in the middle, not the beginning
– The evidence of civilizations before the first kings
– The mystery of pre-flood knowledge and inherited memory
– Parallels between the King List and other global myths
– A meditative reflection on history, loss, and rebirth

✅ Best for: Dreamers, thinkers, and night listeners fascinated by ancient memory and lost beginnings.
🔥 Not just a bedtime story — a whispered descent into the middle of humanity’s forgotten epic.
⏰ Best time to listen: Before sleep, during reflection, or under the quiet stillness of night.
