QuestionsHurrian songs of UgaritIs the Ugarit notation the same system as the Mesopotamian theory texts describe, or a local adaptation?Answer
Answer · Hurrian songs of Ugarit
A separate local channel (Bayer)
The Ugarit notation borrowed the Babylonian terms but is a separate local channel, so the theory tablets fix its vocabulary but not its performance conventions.
Where it stands
Still possibleOne piece of evidence for, none against. It needs two reviews to be accepted.
What it predicts
- No Mesopotamian song will be found in the same layout of words above a notation block.
- Ugarit term sequences may show regularities not predicted by the Babylonian tuning cycle.
What would rule it out
- A Mesopotamian notated song with the same layout and numeral conventions as h.6.
