It has come to my attention some evidence that what we refer to as the Ionian mode (major scale), has been used for over 6000 years. Recently, references from ancient Sumerian Text have revealed. 20,000 clay tablets with such references to Music, Medicine, and other. These Sumarian writers also explain, that they recieved this knowledge from the Annunaki. Which translates to "from the heavens they came", which may indicate an advanced race of beings with the Music teachings. truth is stranger than fiction, in this case.
