#5  I can see it now. Abdullah: Were-Camel of the Bekka Valley. Rated PG-13. Check local listings for time and theatre.

#4  Sneamble Whavise7625, read the article. It will all come to you.

I simply followed the script of "Bowing to a porcelain God", to neatly tie all this together. ;-)

#2  Actually, it's a remnant of a leg of Sirush, and the find has an uncanny relationship to lost fragments of Enuma Elish, where a quarrel between neighbors has been described and that segments ends with a curse " You ate my Sirush! May your teeth fall out!"

As you can see, the find seems to indicate that precisely that happened.

N.T.
