The history of Bahrein, in the Per
sian ilulf, is long and interesting.
Ancient tomhe found in the interior
tell us that the Phoenicians once set
tled there. The kings of Assyria fre
quently fought there. The Babylon
ians called the island Ijlmun
Again the isla-.d is the center of
interest, for the'e recently has been
discovered in Buoylonia a large ciay
tablet recording the story of Para
dise, the Deluge and the Fall of Man
and the story tells u that the island
of Bahrein, the ancient Dilmun. was
the paradise, the Harden of Kden.
where man first lived.
The newly deciphered tablet re
cording this story was among ih
inscribed objects found by the expe
dition sent to Babylonia from the
I'nivextity of Pennsylvania. Prof
Stephen Langdcn. a young Ameri
can scholar, who is professor of As
sy riology in Jesus College, Oxf rd.
England, a chair endowed by an Am
erican family, was visiting the n u
seum in Philadelphia in the autumn
of 1912. At that time he copied a
number of the tablets, one of which
was a triangular fragment. He took
the clay tablet to oxford, where it
was shown to the eminent English
scholar. Prof. Sayce. and it was dis
covered that it recorded a part ol
an early Sumerian story of the flood
and el the fall of man. The chr.s
