Black Magic of Ancient Babylon

In 325 BC the Babylonians for their king proclaimed tribal chief of the Chaldeans Nabupalasara. At the time of the Babylonian kingdom experienced a period of decline. On all sides of it were selected neighbors to grab a tasty morsel, if at all to win a fully Vavilov.
One of the most insidious enemies was considered cruel, but a clever king of Assyria Kesner.

One would assume that the first thing Nabupalasar hasten to gather all the soldiers appanages his new powers to strengthen the walls of the city and its residents to arm. But instead, he ordered the best Babylonian sculptures to masks Kesner and two of his most prominent generals. At the same time he secretly sent his brother to the mountains, that he brought to Babylon, their mother.
Soon, the king of the slaves made ​​a bet a stretcher, out of which crept a little hunchbacked old woman in rags, frantically pressed to a huge earthen vessel in which something bubbling.

After this Nabupalasar turned to the Babylonians with a request to select one hundred young, healthy male volunteers, warning that anyone of them will take a painful death.
This was built hundreds of volunteers outside the city walls of the royal guards of the camp, and a little hunchbacked old woman, still fails to relinquish his cherished vessel, went down the line for a long time, so that, eventually, silently point to the three young men. They were ordered to drink the liquid from the vessel, which had a sharp odor and color of blood. The rest of the volunteers were allowed to return to the city.

The next day, the three unfortunate young men tied to stakes on the scaffold, built in the middle of the Chaldean camp. Clothes were not on them, so anyone could see that their bodies and flesh were so transparent that under the skin could clearly see the internal organs.

Boys bombers were firmly on his feet, but did not move, think they were missing. Perhaps they were in a state special sleep. On their faces wore masks Kesner and his generals.
The old woman - a mother Nabupalasara - in a black suit, the ritual of the Chaldean goddess of death, Ana slowly walked to one of them and stuck a long sharp awl into his heart. Under the transparent skin numerous witnesses magic acts, it was clear both from broken hearts in the internal cavity guzzle blood, after which the wounded had died quickly in front of everyone.
Then the old woman came up to the second doomed and inserted into the slots for the eyes of his mask two shiny metal tubes. Soon in his hand a crooked witches all saw a pair of torn bleeding eyes.
Finally, she went to the third boy, which was wearing a mask Kesner. The old woman pulled out from under the skirts of his gold dagger, a short dress and deliberately slow movements began to cut out his heart. A few minutes later and still a bloody arm was throbbing in her hands.
The old woman raised her head above the heart of the accident and walked with him on the platform, uttering some incantations, while making sharp swings his arms to the north, where the army was advancing on Babylon Kesner. Gradually her movements became faster and, eventually, turned into a fast dance. He was over the fact that the woman fell to her knees and clasped both bleeding heart in his hands, that it splashed blood on the platform of soldiers standing around,.
' The dog queen Ana, take a despicable Kesner ' - she cried. At this point, according to eyewitnesses, jumped onto the platform, emerged from nowhere, a huge black dog. She tore the heart out of his teeth and hands the old woman ran away, and no one dared to stop it '.

Meanwhile, the Witch cried softly and collapsed on the pavement. Long enough for all around stood around in silence. According to the Chaldean hronopistsa the camp was not even a breath of wind, and horses neighing and snorting in their stalls, so that could be heard just like flies buzzing over them. This dead silence interrupted Nabupalasar king, who ordered his soldiers to burn the stage with three dead bodies, and his mother, who also was probably dead, but no one dared to ascend the scaffold, to ensure that.

A few days later Nabupalasara scouts reported that the army is something strange Kesner. Then it became known that the Assyrian king died suddenly of a heart attack right at the time of the meal, and one of his best generals then suddenly went blind!.

Another commander invited to attend the dinner to hide the death of the king and to continue the campaign against Babylon, and the command of the army entrusted to him. However, the close of the dead under mysterious circumstances Kesner disagreed and accused him that he had poisoned a king, and slipped into the food of his commander a dope, from which he lost his sight.

As a result of a transient skirmish second prominent Assyrian commander was killed by a blow at the heart of the blade. After that, in a heterogeneous army of the Assyrians began internecine strife, and to march against Babylon, had to be abandoned.

A few years later Nabupalasar conquered Assyria and restored the mighty Babylonian Empire, which included nearly all the territory of the modern Middle East. All this he considered an accomplishment of his mother, in whose honor he built in the huge temple of Babylon, named Ana church, which has evolved from the queen 's death in Babylon, Chaldean god in heaven.
It is difficult to judge how Nabupalasar actually owes its rise and subsequent revival of Babylon, his mother. However, it is clear that this is just one of many examples of faith, the Chaldeans and Babylonians in the power of magic.

It is known that the Chaldeans were the first widely used method, known as the European black magic ' symptomatic suragatsiya '. It is based on the belief that it is possible to harm your enemy by manipulation of the doll representing him, or even, as in the above- described case, a living person, assuming that by some magical means, all those symptoms, which were made with .

This practice existed long enough in Babylon, and even after he fell under the blows of the Persians and the Persian King Cyrus under the influence of his adviser Daniel forbade Babylonian magical practices, his successors kept secret in their yards magicians. However, they did not just pointing to the deterioration of their enemies, but also far more humane traditional Babylonian magical medicine.
