Question: Ask The Nuwaupians About The Magna Fuente Bowl In Bolivia, ALALU And Paa Balagh?
Answer: After reading this article, you'll see that the so-called Actual Facts teachings are actually fact less.
The claims made above should be classified as Pseudoism, and not because of the misnomer "Sumeria". There is ZERO evidence of the Magna Fuente Bowl having anything to do with Sumer, other than someone carving what appears to be a Dingir sing into the bowl. In a nutshell, there exists nothing supporting that premise.
Nuwaupians really need to stop selling lies to gain followers for the left over cult, because they're ruining the historical significance of some ancient societies and the information they wrote. According to the booklet Paa Balagh, York or whomever is the author is, claims that the Sumerians and/or the Anuna (Anunnaki) came, lived or visited South America, specifically Bolivia. This again is how York teaches his followers, making claims and offering them no corroborating evidence. Just looking at a bowl with an inscription, no context, no historical background information that connects the bowl to the Sumerians, let's address it.
The Magna Fuente Bowl:
It was the Ancient Astronauts conspiracy theorist David Childress who introduced us to the latest notions of the Fuente Magna libation bowl, an allegedly pre-Columbian artifact from Bolivia bearing (depending on who is doing the talking) Sumerian, proto-Sumerian, Hebraic, Semitic, or proto-Saharan writing. This bowl has a highly problematic provenance (no one can say just when or where it was found), and all indications are that it's a HOAX, just like the Ica Stones, the Pedro Crespi collection, and Erich von Daniken’s cave of alien gold in Ecuador.
The Fuente Magna bowl, according to some extremist alternative archaeologist, ancient astronaut theorist and York, claim that this bowl is covered in Sumerian writing, but is it really? Obviously whomever wrote about this knew little or nothing about Sumerian language or the various forms or wedge writing in Mesopotamia. The so-called Magna Fuente bowl lacks any provenance. It pops up sometime in the 1950's, it first came to the attention of archaeologists in 1958 and was quickly dismissed for lack of authenticity. It's return to the modern Pseudo-Circus is due in part to its appearance on a 2000 Alien documentary called, The Ancient Sumerians in South America: Ancient Architects.
When viewing this cuneiform sign, a determinative before the name of a deity/sky/heaven known as a DINGIR, it's the same for planets (MUL) which has three DINGIRs as opposed to one DINGER.
This DINGIR sign known as Illu (in Akkadian) is alleged to be written by Sumerians and the "name" for An (Sumerian) Anu (Akkadian) is used and placed before the subject deity, example below.
The DINGIR is easily recognizable. In transliteration it's the "d" indicating a royal or divine name. As previously stated, the use of this cuneiform determinative is applied to stars as well, sometimes as a DINGIR sometimes as MUL.
Outside of the above statements that cuneiform is a wedge form or writing that the Sumerians and Akkadians used, the rest is nonsensical psycho babel. There are NO Sumerian texts that mentions the Anunnaqi teaching the Sumerians. Neither York nor his followers have ever produced or cited a primary source substantiating that claim; likewise with any notions of ALALU being removed from Nibiru only to appear in Central and South America. The claims on page 20 are based on the idea that the items in the collection are of Sumerian origins, which amounts to science-fiction.
When looking at the so-called Sumerian cuneiform writings on the Magna Fuente bowl, on display in the Museo De Metales Precisos in La Paz, Bolivia, we so a series of odd and unexplained errors, simply put, poor archaeology. There's what appears to be at least three sets of writings. There's what's been alleged to be Phoenician, a similar looking Proto-Sumerian on the left side of the bowl with scattered cuneiform-like wedges. Then on the right side is a poor attempt at the cuneiform writing which is in reverse, pointing in the wrong direction something NO Sumerian text contains, and certainly none as a representation of the term for AN/ANU. That alone would disqualify this bowel as having anything to do with Sumer or that the wedge writing is Sumerian cuneiform at all.
Most of the so-called cuneiform wedges here do NOT appear in any sign or syllabary list, not in Proto-Sumerian, Santakku, UllikummiA/B, Old Babylonian, Hittite, Assurbanipal, Old Akkadian, nor Neo-Assyrian cuneiform fonts, verify for yourself.

Now when we look at the bowl, clearly the individual(s) who produced this item knew little to nothing of Mesopotamian cuneiform, an example of this is with the most recognizable cuneiform signs in Mesopotamia, the DINGIR (a determinative before divine names, planets and stars). When you look close, it has five points and facing the wrong direction. That's a dead giveaway for anyone who studies cuneiform. There's absolutely no way that if this is Sumerian, and the people who made the bowl were ancient Sumerians, that they would corrupt a sign representative of one of their most sacred deities, see for your self.
Below is a Sumerian text, and the DINGIR is in the text which has no five points, thus the Fuente Magna bowl has to be a modern creation, but because it's part of the Ancient Alien mysteries genre. York passes it off to his followers as factual.
A.la.lu?
York makes the ridiculous charge that Alalu came to South America after being casted off "Nibiru" who would later "be responsible for the construction of large temples in Central and South America". Again, there is absolutely NOTHING in ancient Mesopotamian history to corroborate his claim.
The story of the relationship of Anu and Alalu which is from a Hittite text called The Song of Kumarbi or Kingship in Heaven. The Hittite version of the Hurrian Kumarbi myth, dates to the 13th/14th century B.C. and preserved on three tablets.
Tablet A. KUB 33.120 + KUB 33.119 + KUB 48.97
Tablet B. KUB 36.1
Tablet C. KUB 48.97
In the story of The Song of Kumarbi or Kingship in Heaven, Alalu was overthrown by Anu who was then overthrown by Kumarbi, Alalu's son, Alalu was a God of Heaven and "ANU" was his cup-bearer. Anu killed Alalu then took his throne. Alalu's son Kumarbi served Anu as his cup bearer, and when Kumarbi sought to avenge his father and gain the throne, Anu tried to escape. Kumarbi bites off ANU's testicles and spat out three new deities. Finally Anu's son Tesub overthrew Kumarbi and became king. The rest of the cycle has Kumarbi attempting to regain his throne by begetting or otherwise putting up various deities and creatures to defeat Tesub so that he (Kumarbi) could regain his throne.

"After ALALU has occupied the heavenly throne for nine years, his cup bearer ANU rises against him and takes his place, with ALALU fleeing to the dark Earth. Subsequently, ANU suffers the same fate: after nine years, he too, has to fight his own cup bearer, ALALU's son KUMARBI, whom he tries to escape by fleeing to the sky. However, KUMARBI prevents him from doing so by grabbing his legs and pulling him down. He then bites off ANU'S genital, but ANU warns him not to rejoice at this, as KUMARBI has now been impregnated with ANU'S offspring: the storm-god, the Aranzah River (the river-god Tigris), the god Tasmisu and two more "terrible gods'. He ends off by prophesying that KUMARBI will regret having received this burden"
According to the Hittite account, ANU is removed from the throne and never returns. In the text, there's no mention of Nibiru, Anunnqi, Enkii or Enlil, nothing supporting York's comments. York continuously brings out fictitious characters, in this case he mentions a statue on Mars named "Nimug", and that ALALU went by another name SIIDIIHIS, this is nowhere to be found in the ancient text, only in York's personal publications, one in particular, the Holy Tablets as we read below.
55.) Manu and their other Agni who stayed in the skies of Orion.
56.) The ruler Alalu of the thrones also ruled the skies of Orion.
57.) Anu came before him and bowed at his feet, because he was the ruler of Orion. By custom Alalu appointed ANU to be his royal cup-bearer, which is an honored and trusted position.
58.) Alalu ruled the skies for 6,000 years or 9 Nibiruan periods.
59.) Then ANU rose up against Alalu and ANU defeated Alalu. ANU took control over all the galactical heavens.
60.) And Alalu ran from ANU to the planet Earth, with his wife, Al Laat and 2 daughters, Al Uzza and Manat.
-Malachi York: Chapter 5 Tablet 5:55-60
Please notice in the above quote how York very deceitfully and maliciously mixes his pseudo Sumerian narrative with an Islamic integration, claiming that Alalu had a wife named Al Laat with two Al Uzza and Manat, a total lie, and you will never see a Mesopotamian text mentioning Alalu having a wife named Al Laat, nor any daughters with those names. York took that from the Islamic holy book the Qu'ran.
Al Quran Chapter 53:19-20 (Al-Najm)
19. أَفَرَأَيْتُمُ اللَّاتَ وَالْعُزَّىٰ
20. وَمَنَاةَ الثَّالِثَةَ الْأُخْرَىٰ
53:19 Have ye seen Lat and 'Uzza.
53:20 And another, the third (goddess), Manat?
The above cartoon illustration according to York is supposed to be Alalu, under the name Siidiihis, something unheard of in Mesopotamian literature. Keep in mind that one of the "MASTER'S" who has guided York's pen (Zecharia Sitchin) where York plagirized the story of Alalu going to Lahmu (Mars) claimed that Alalu went to Mars and that the so-called face on Mars was Alalu, York took that, ran with it, then added a new twist that Siidiihis a (man-like reptile with Afro patches on his head) and at one time was the Most high. But Siidiihis is not found anywhere in Sumerian or any other Mesopotamian literature.
"...His mouth was wide open, swiftly he the male hood of Anu bit off, The male hood of Anu did Alalu swallow! In pained agony did Anu a cry to the heavens shout; to the ground wounded he fell. Enki to the fallen Anu rushed, Enlil the laughing Alalu captive held. Heroes Anu to his hut carried, words of accusation against Alalu he uttered. Let justice be done! Enlil to his lieutenant shouted. With your beam-weapon let Alalu be killed! No! No! Enki fiercely shouted. Justice is within him, in his innards poison has entered! They took Alalu to a reed hut, his hands and feet as a prisoner they bound. Now this is the account of the judging of Alalu, And of the happenings thereafter on Earth and on Lahmu [Mars]. In his reed hut Anu was hurting, in the reed hut to him Enki applied the healing. In his reed hut Alalu was sitting, spittle he spat from his mouth; In his innards the male hood of Anu was like a burden, With Anu’s semen were his innards impregnated; like a female in travail his belly grew swollen.
On the third day Anu’s pains subsided; his pride was greatly hurting. To Nibiru I wish to return! to his two sons did Anu say. Beforehand upon Alalu there must be a judgment; a sentence the crime befitting must be imposed...Let Alalu for the rest of his days on Earth be in prison! Anzu was saying. Their words Anu was contemplating; anger and pity both him engulfed. To die in exile, let this be the judgment! Anu was saying. In amazement the judges at each other glanced. What Anu was saying they wondered. Neither on Earth nor on Nibiru shall the exiling be! Anu was saying. On the way there is the Lahmu [Mars] planet, with waters and an atmosphere it is endowed...Around the planet Lahmu [Mars] we shall make circuits, to Alalu a sky chamber we shall provide, To the planet Lahmu [Mars] in it he will be descended. Alone on a strange planet an exile he shall be, His days to his last day by himself to count! Thus did Anu words of judgment utter, in solemnity were the words intended. By unanimity was this judgment upon Alalu imposed, in the presence of the heroes it was announced... He led them to a great rock, from the plain heavenward protruding.There to them what had happened he was telling: Alalu soon after the landing from unremitting pain to scream began. From his mouth his innards he was spitting; in agony he peered over the wall! Thus was Anzu to them saying. He led them to a great rock, like a mountain from the plain heavenward rising. In the great rock a cave I found, Alalu’s corpse therein I hid, Its entrance with stones I covered. So was Anzu to them saying. They followed him to the rock, the stones they removed, the cave they entered. Inside what of Alalu remained they found; He who once on Nibiru a king was a pile of bones was in a cave now lying! For the first time in our annals, a king not on Nibiru has died, not on Nibiru was he buried! So did Ninmah say. Let him in peace for eternity rest! she was saying. They the cave’s entrance again with stones covered; The image of Alalu upon the great rock mountain with beams they carved. They showed him wearing an Eagle’s helmet; his face they made uncovered. Let the image of Alalu forever gaze toward Nibiru that he ruled..."
-Zecaria Sitchin: The Lost Book of Enki pages 138-151
York stretches this nonsense even more by claiming Alalu to be the brother of Anu;
84. The Anunnagi, Aluhum triumphed over the race of Jinn, as ANU had done over his brother, ALALU, who descended to the seventh, the blue planet inward, then called Tiamat, and after his defeat, Anu ascended unto the throne of Nibiru..."
-Malachi York: Holy Tablets 2:84
In another publication York says this regarding ALALU.
"His main consort and 1/2 sister was named AN.TU in cuneiform and Antum, in Akkadian was mother of EN.LIL. She was an ANUN.NA.QI (Anunna) and half sister of Anu, by different fathers. Another consort was named "IYD" (Nimul), also 'Id' who was the mother of ENQI. She was a Draconian, a reptilian native to the planet earth, daughter of Siidiihis (Alalu) when it was under water Genesis 1:2..."
-Malachi York: Is Jesus God? pg. 297
Keep in mind that York claimed that Siidiihis is Alalu, which would mean Anu took his brother's daughter (Anu's niece) and had sex with her, NO source text provided by York to substantiate that perverted claim. York was simply making this stuff up as the years went by. Throughout the entire text, there's nothing that matches the story York was selling in Paa Balagh. It's a publication filled with pseudo-historical accounts, poor interpretations and baseless assumptions, the alleged cuneiform writings themselves makes that point.
Because this publication Paa Balagh is comical and should never be taken as serious archaeological work, then it's no surprise that if you remove the "Ba" and add the "u" before "gh", you'll end up with the word "Laugh", a book full of jokes, and that's by design.
