The study shows that the religious costunmes in ancient Mesopotamia have following characteristics. 1.

  • 메소포타미아 문명은 서기전 3800년경에 시작된 수메르 문명에서 시작하여 서기전 600년경 사라진 아시리아와 바빌로니아 문명에 이르기까지 지리적 특징으로 인해 중첩되며 발달하였다. 하기에 3000여년간 지속된 도시의 변화과정을 살펴봄은 초창기 인류문명과 도시에 어떤 요소들이 중요하게 작용 되었는지를 알 수 있는 중요한 동기가 된다. 이 시기에 있었던 30여개의 도시 중 13개의 도시를 선정하여 분석한 결과 첫째 도시의 기능이 농경문화에서 점차 상업, 무역, 군사기능으로 전환되고 있음을 알 수 있었으며, 둘째 도시의 위치가 도시기능과 연관되어 메소포타미아 남부에서 점차 북부로 이동하고 있었고, 셋째 도시의 형태는 '텔' 이라는 구릉위의 도시형태가 점차 평지로 내려오고 있었고 나중에는 지형에 의지하지 않는 계획도시의 형태를 띄게 되었으며, 넷째 신전중심의 도시구조가 왕궁중심의 도시 구조로 서서히 변화하고 있음을 알 수 있었다.

  • The city of Basra, established on the shore of Basra Bay in the south of modern Iraq, played an important role in agriculture and trade for centuries, with its geography and its position where two great rivers of Mesopotamia flow. Before being established with its current name by the Muslim Arabs, the city was known as Teredon in the Chaldean period and VehiŞtebad ErdeŞir in the Sasanid period. It was reestablished with the name Basra in the early period of Islam by Arabs between Hijri 14-16 (635-637 CE). Afterward, the city became one of the most important centers of trade, science and thought; had a perfect cultural diversity; and hosted important schools of Arabic language and thought for centuries. Besides the commercial effects of its being a transfer point on the axis of Europe, Mesopotamia, Iran, and India, the schools of thought which emerged here were affected by this mobility. In this paper, we try to reveal the philosophical-religious approach which the Ikhwan al-Safa school of thought in Basra, one of the most important cities of the Silk Road, created in parallel with the characteristics of this city. Shiite Ismaili beliefs and thoughts in the region and its characteristics which feed different religions and traditions emerging from Egypt and with the scientific approach of Greek thought; with Indian-Iranian teachings that merge Greek thought and Neoplatonic philosophy, give us the summary of Silk Road civilizations.
