Silim!

Thank you for this great blog!

Since Hallowe’en is approaching, I’m wondering: did Sumerians know pumpkins? And in case, do we know any term for a pumpkin or other cucurbitacaea?

Silim, and sorry I'm a bit late answering this! Pumpkin season doesn't end til the end of November though, right? >_<

Pumpkins and most other squashes are native to North America, so they didn't exist in Mesopotamia at the time Sumerian was spoken. The colocynth, or bitter-gourd, is native to Asia and was known to the Sumerians, though they used it primarily as a medicine rather than as a culinary plant (it's not very tasty). The colocynth had a couple names in Sumerian, including ukushtikilla 𒄾𒋾𒆸𒆷𒊬 and tamshillum 𒁮𒅆𒈝. The word ukush 𒄾 means "cucumber", but Halloran (2006) also says it could be used for gourds, though I'm not sure which species would be covered (other than the colocynth).

There are 3 truths to this world: Beauty, Numbers and...

[itsashowtime]

tw: implied abuse

Context: Ukuwa's entry fee was his perception of time because that's what ruled over his entire life. He felt comfort in knowing the time whenever he wanted because to him, it told him when the suffering would end.

Without time in the Reaper's Game, he ironically starts living more than when he was alive... And he comes to fear 'the end' that he once found safety in.

idk if the dialogue makes fuckass sense but it's just coocoo ukuwa clock speech hands are in reference to the hands of a clock sgdgdgf i hOPE THAT MAKES SENSE?
