dc.description.abstract-translated | Marriage of Martu refers to the mythological text originating from early second millennia BC from the ancient Middle East. The work is closely related to the so called Amorite migration from the west into the collapsing Sumerian civilisation. This phenomena was long considered to be the leading cause of the fall of Ur III dynasty and various other city states of the time. More recent studies point to economic exhaustion caused by protracted warfare and famine brought about by climate change and earth salinization as being greater contributing factors. The title refers to the titular deity, who was a fictional anthropomorphic personification of the recently arrived Amorite tribal people. This is proven by the fact that Amorites themselves never worshipped such an entity and Martu himself was integrated into the established pantheon as a legitimate deity only after the Amorite people were already integrated into Mesopotamian society. The text itself sees Martu competing in various fighting games organized in Inab in order to win the hand of Adjar-kidug, the daughter of the city’s patron deity. He is ultimately successful and wins over the trust of the people and his bride to be, despite presented accusations that reflected the then stereotypical view the older native people likely had of the recently arrived tribal population. The aim of this paper is to introduce the myth and then provide contextual analysis within the social and political context of its time. It also briefly introduces a new interpretation of it. Said interpretation posits that the aim of the text was to legitimise a new Amorite ruling dynasty, or at least make their rule seem more acceptable to the indigenous population by granting it divine blessing. This would have precedent in religious ceremonies and texts from the same time period, which saw various Amorite rulers trying to establish continuity with the previous dynasties. Such practices also included marriage with daughters of the defeated lineages. Further evidence of likely Amorite authorship of the text is its optimistic wording when contrasted to other texts from its era, such as Lamentation over the city of Ur. | en |
