Sumerian origin of Chinese civilization

A major blind spot in Assyriology has been resolved: By cross-referencing ancient Chinese records, i demonstrated that the true personal name of the second king of the First Dynasty of Ur (Ur I) is Aannepada (cuneiform: 𒀀𒀭𒉌𒅆𒊒𒁕, A-an-ne₂-pa₃-da). The name recorded on the Sumerian King **List (SKL)—**Meskiagnunna (cuneiform: 𒈩𒆠𒉘𒉣𒈾, Mes-ki-aĝ₂-nun-na)—is not a separate brother or successor, but strictly his royal administrative title. The archaeological discrepancy is finally closed.
