In Genesis 11:26-31, Abram is introduced as son of Terah, coming from Ur Kasdim (Ur of the Chaldeans). This is not just a case of using the then-current name for a territory that has changed rulers. Genesis 15:7 “quotes” Yahweh telling Abram that Yahweh brought Abram out of Ur Kasdim. “The Chaldeans” didn’t exist until at least the 10th C BCE... soon after the time of David, and they didn’t take Ur until the 7th C BCE. It is difficult to be born in a region that didn’t exist until centuries after you supposedly lived. But if the authors of Nehemiah and Genesis could have known about the Chaldeans and thought that Ur had been under the Chaldeans before the Israelites existed. Abram/Abraham was most likely an eponymous invention.

They are showing the Sumerians as white or Caucasian. However, the people in that lived in that region during that period, the Ubaid period, we black. They weren't even what think of as Arab today back then. The whites, for the most part, were still confined to the caves and hillsides of Europe or what is known as the Caucasus mountains. The founders of civilization Sumer, along the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, were black. Later, the whites emerged from the Caucasus, then into Eurasian Steppes and then unto civilization of Sumer, mixing in with the indigenous inhabitants already there.
