| Summary: | The word Qala`i originated from the word قلعى (ق ل ع ى ) and was discovered in an Assyria inscription dated 1300 BC under the reign of Ashurbanipal 1. However, to link with the Qala`I, the writing system in ancient inscriptions must be discovered. We noticed ancient inscriptions do not contain any vowel alphabet, only consonants (E.F.L. Beeston) and the Pw-r-s-ty for Philistines (Wainwright, 1961). Then to pronounce Qala`i sword is قلعى without vowel sound. In Biblical Studies, they pronounce Calah based on European pronunciation, not as a Semitic sound. The Biblical Studies assumed that Calah (later called Nimrod) was situated in Mesopotamia only by literary evidence, not by archaeology discovery. |
