Miley Cyrus

Cyrus the Great, conquered Babylon in 539 BC and what he did after, caused the emergence of the Cyrus Cylinder. The content of the Cylinder is considered the "First Declaration of Human Rights" in history. Although issuing cylinders by the conquerors was pretty normal at that era, the Cylinder of Cyrus is completely different to the other ones, as it puts an end to millennia of bloodshed, violence and inhumanity.

It was made by the Babylonians themselves as for their gratefulness to Cyrus's favor upon them. Cyrus freed all the slaves, repatriated the captives including the Jewish exiles, rebuilt the damaged temples and allowed all religions, cultures and traditions to be freely practiced by the people.

For example; the word "Peace" is repeated three (four by some accounts) times in "Cyrus Cylinder", which by itself is a novel word for the time; it has no record of usage in other cylinders of the same tradition, in which there was no hint of mercy or compassion. Almost all other cylinders proudly load their text by describing the amount of violence exerted by the conquerors; this is indeed one of the aspects that make "Cyrus Cylinder" different to the others; below is part of Cylinder's translation from the British Museum website;Special:Wysiwyg

"When I went as harbinger of peace i[nt]o Babylon, I founded my sovereign residence within the palace amid celebration and rejoicing... My vast troops were marching peaceably in Babylon, and the whole of [Sumer] and Akkad had nothing to fear... and I have enabled all the lands to live in peace."

Then, there is the Cylinder's innovative attention to the Human values that is unique to itself, such as:

Liberation of Slaves; "As for the population of Babylon [..., w]ho as if without div[ine intention] had endured a yoke not decreed for them, I soothed their weariness; I freed them from their bonds."

Repatriation; "I collected together all of their people and returned them to their settlements."

Freedom of Worship; "From [Shuanna] I sent back to their places to the city of Ashur and Susa, Akkad, the land of Eshnunna, the city of Zamban, the city of Meturnu, Der, as far as the border of the land of Guti - the sanctuaries across the river Tigris - whose shrines had earlier become dilapidated, the gods who lived therein, and made permanent sanctuaries for them... and the gods of the land of Sumer and Akkad which Nabonidus -- to the fury of the lord of the gods -- had brought into Shuanna, at the command of Marduk, the great lord, I returned them unharmed to their cells, in the sanctuaries that make them happy. May all the gods that I returned to their sanctuaries, every day before Bel and Nabu, ask for a long life for me, and mention my good deeds."

"Can't Be Tamed"

For those who don't know me,

I can get a bit crazy

Have to get my way,yep

24 hours a day

'cause I'm hot like that

Every guy, everywhere

just gives me mad attention

Like I'm under inspection

I always gets a ten,

'cause I'm built like that

I go through guys like money

flyin' out the hands

They try to change me

but they realize they can't

And every tomorrow is a day I never plan

If you're gonna be my man understand

I can't be tamed

I can't be tamed

I can't be blamed

I can't, can't, I can't, can't be tamed

I can't be changed

I can't be tamed

I can't be, can't, I can't be tamed

If there was a question about my intentions,

I'll tell ya

I'm not here to sell ya

Or tell you to go to hell

(I'm not a brat like that)

I'm like a puzzle

but all of my pieces are jagged

If you can understand this,

we can make some magic,

I'm wrong like that

I wanna fly,

I wanna drive,

I wanna go

I wanna be a part of something I don't know

And if you try to hold me back I might explode

Baby, by now you should know

I can't be tamed

I can't be tamed

I can't be blamed

I can't, can't, I can't, can't be tamed

I can't be changed

I can't be tamed

I can't be, can't, I can't be tamed

Well I'm not a trick you play,

I'm wired a different way

I'm not a mistake,

I'm not a fake,

It's set in my DNA

Don't change me

Don't change me

Don't change me

Don't change me

(I can't be tamed)

I wanna fly,

I wanna drive,

I wanna go

I wanna be a part of something I don't know

And if you try to hold me back I might explode

Baby, by now you should know

I can't be tamed

I can't be tamed

I can't be blamed

I can't, can't, I can't, can't be tamed

I can't be changed

I can't be tamed

I can't be, can't, I can't be tamed
