Subject: Babylonian Chinese Connexion?

It's great fun reading this kind of archaic, out of date study, but one can't take it seriously. If you want to see why the author thought there was a connection, you really need to see the symbols. That means seeing the PDF file, not a mere scanned copy, which won't be able to make sense of either the cuneiform or Chinese characters. It's nonsense but clever nonsense!
