The term "]" comes from the ] ] tablets and writings dating 6,000 years old. The term Nibiru means "] of the crossing", and it's cuneiform sign was often a ], or various ]. The Sumerian culture is the first recorded civilization on earth, in the fertile lands between the ] and ] rivers, just south of today's ]. It has been known throughout ensuing time periods as Sumer, Mesoptamia, and Babylon, all the same location for where the earth's first culture appears.

Due to its use in opposition to the phrase ''itebbiru'' "who used to cross," Landsberger and Kinnier Wilson{{fn|1}} suggest that it refers to a stationary point in the heavens.{{fn|1}} In a reconstruction of Tablet V of the ] by Landsberger and Kinnier Wilson, the word ''ni-bi-ri'' (variant: ''ni-bi-ru'' and ''ni-bi-a-na'') is translated as "]."{{fn|1}} The authors add in the footnotes that "Applied to ], there is no question that in the late periods ''nēberu'' is a planet, whether ] or ]" however for the referenced translation of Tablet V, "pole star" is used.{{fn|1}}

==Theory==
Some authors believe that the observations of ancient astronomers provide proof that Nibiru is an actual planet or ] in our ]. These claims are for the most part dismissed as ] or ] by the mainstream ] of ] and ]. However evidence is slowly emerging to show correlations that cannot be dismissed.{{fact|date=April 2007}} The ancient knowlege given to us in the Sumerian tablets portray elaborate celestial understandings incomprehensibly beyond ancient technological capabilities. In other words, the detailed graphing of our 9 currently recognized planets was created 6,000 years ago, while modern science has only discovered our outermost two planets in the last 150 years. The ancients simply did not have the technology to view the skies, namely powerful ]s, yet they recorded size, position, and movement. They also include in their tablets the inclusion of a tenth planet roughly 4 to 8 times the size of the ], or rather, the size of Jupiter. It seems only recently modern science has confirmed what the ancients already held to be fact.{{fact|date=April 2007}}

According to proponents such as renowned historian, Hebrew scholar, author, speaker and archaeologist ], one of only 220 scholars capable of translating the Sumerian cuneiform script, and ], the Nibiru appearing in Sumerian records correctly refers to a large planetary body. Their research proposes that it possesses a highly elliptical, 3630-year orbit. Such a planet would be approximately in the same orbit as {{mpl|2000 CR|105}}.

According to these theories of Sumerian cosmology, Nibiru was the twelfth member in the solar system family of planets (which includes 10 planets, the ], and the ]). Its ] collision with ], a planet that was between ] and ], would have formed the planet ], the ], and ]. This was the result of one of Nibiru's host satellites colliding with Tiamat, appropriately leaving half a planet, comparable to our Pangea ( our current knowlege of all the continents as one land mass), and leaving deeps rifts in the crust benath the pacific ocean. It was until recently thought impossible for such large celestial bodies to collide due to intense magenetic force, however, this concept has been given a new life since the introduction of the Orpheus Theory, and the simulation of a collision between objects such as our own earth, and an object half it's size. It was the home of a technologically advanced human-like alien race, the ] of ], who, Sitchin claims, survived and later came to Earth. Sitchin has also transcribed that their travelling to earth was the result of their failing atmosphere (having since been drawn into our solar system from its cosmic passing, the atmosphere of Niburu was subjected to intense external stress from our sun). They came in search of gold particles used for it's reflective properties (recognized even today by Nasa who plate various objects including astronaut helmet eyeshields) to place in their atmosphere. According to Sitchin, they subsequently genetically engineered our species, originally as slave workers to work in their gold mines, by crossing their genes with those of ]. The Anunnaki ("those who from hean came to earth" in Sumerian) came upon evolution on earth as it had been progressing for billions of years however, they desired to create a worker who could communicate and learn from them. After a slew of failed prototypes an Anunnaki goddess engineered a perfect specimen- the Adam. This was done using 80% of the Inferior specimen and 20% of the superior Anunnaki specimen. It is only recently that we understand DNA as having a double-helix nature, The Sumerians depicted their godess creator along with snakes in a double helix form with thin bars connecting between them in a spiral fashion. The intertwined snakes are also modern day representatives for the field of medicine.

Sitchin says some sources speak about the same planet, possibly being a ] star and still in a highly ] around the Sun, with a ] passage some 3,600 ]s ago and assumed ] of about 3,600 to 3,760 years or 3,741 years. Sitchin attributes these figures to astronomers of the ]. Many involved in research of this kind predict a return date of Nibiru passing Earth coinciding with the Winter Solstice of 2012; specifically at 11.11 UT, 21st December 2012. This also coincides with a rare alignment of the Earth, Sun and centre of the Milky Way , and is asserted to be likely to cause a ]. However, scientists argue that a planet with such an orbit would eventually either develop a circular orbit or fly off into space and overwhelmingly consider Sitchin's claims to be ] (oddly, the similar orbit of ] ''is'' accepted by scientists). A brown dwarf with a period of 3,760 years would be clearly evident through infrared and gravitational observations. And it has been. In 1993 Nasa launched the IRAS telescope which picked up the feint image of a large celestial body 3 times the distance of Pluto in our own solar system. Scientists of the time, confident in their findings claimed "all thats left is to name it". Almost nothing has been heard of the object since.

==Nibiru in literature==
* ]'s ''Earth Chronicles'' (6 volumes) and his other works deal with Nibiru as it applies to his take on Sumerian mythology and its resonance in other myths and legends around the world.
* ]'s ''Hidden History'' trilogy expands upon and many of Sitchin's ideas while challenging his tendency towards ] in favor of ].
* The ] series by ] written under his pen name of ] deals with Nibiru as the homeworld of the ancient ] who colonized Earth half a million years ago. In 2001, ] engineered a global nuclear holocaust to make Earth more like Nibiru.
*In ]' ] '']'', a ] or ] causes havoc throughout the solar system in a manner nearly identical to the behavior of the hypothetical Nibiru. The only significant difference is that in Wells' version, the object destroys not the ], but ], currently regarded as the eighth ] from the ].
