        I completed the work on Esagil which (my) father who had engendered me had not finished.

        I (re)confirmed the regular offerings for Esagil and the gods of Babylon.

        I (re-)established the privileged status of Babylon (and) appointed Šamaš-šuma-ukīn, my favorite brother,

        to the kingship of Babylon in order that the strong might not harm the weak.

            (private motel-residences for visiting gods in Babylon)

        At that time, I had Emaḫ, the temple of the goddess Ninmaḫ which is inside Babylon, (re)built anew.

          On account of this, may the goddess Ninmaḫ, the august lady, look upon my good deeds with pleasure

          (Marduk, rocket, & spouse Sarpanit in Babylon)

        and say good things about me daily before the god Bēl (Marduk) and the goddess Bēltīia (Zarpanītu) (Sarpanit)!

        May she determine as my fate a long life (and) make my reign as firm as heaven and netherworld!

           (Samas-suma-ukin, subservient King of Babylon)

        Moreover, with regard to Šamaš-šuma-ukīn, king of Babylon, my favorite brother,

        may his days be long and may he experience the fullness of old age!

          (But) as for the one who erases my inscribed name or the name of my favorite (brother)

        by some crafty device, (or) destroys my royal inscription, or changes its position,

          (Ninmah / Ninhursag, Enki’s twin sister-lover)

        may the goddess Ninmaḫ speak evil of him before the god Bēl (and) the goddess Bēltīia (Marduk‘s spouse)

        and make his name (and) his descendant(s) disappear from the lands!

(gods in bluemixed-breed demigods in teal…)

        Nintur (Ninhursag) was paying attention:

        Let me bethink myself of my humankind, all forgotten as they are;

          2b - Ninhursag, Chief Medical Officer (Ninhursag / Nintur with her early attempts to fashion workers for the gods)

        and mindful of mine, Nintur‘s creatures let me bring them back

        let me lead the people back from their trails.

        May they come and build cities and cult places, that I may cool myself in their shade;

        may they lay the bricks for the cult cities in pure spots

        and may they found places for divination in pure spots!

        She gave directions for purification and cries for elemency,

        the things that cool divine wrath, perfected the divine service and the august offices,

        said to the surrounding regions: “Let me institute peace there!”

        When An, Enlil, Enki and Ninhursaga (Ninhursag) fashioned the dark-headed people (modern man)

           6 - Anu above, Enlil, & Enki Hathorix capital. Limestone, bas-relief from Paphos, Cyprus 80 x 44 x 24 cm AM 2755  (Apkulla / pilot, Enki, Anu above in sky-disc, Enlil, Apkulla / pilot, & “Tree of Life” DNA manipulations to fashion replacement workers; Ninhursag, Chief Medical Scientist on Earth Colony, taking 50,000 years to complete the fashioning of “Modern Man”)

        they had made the small animals that come up from out of the earth,

        come from the earth in abundance and had let there be, as it befits it,

        gazelles, wild donkeys, and four-footed beasts in the desert.

        …and let me have him advise; let me have him oversee their labour,

        and let him teach the nation to follow along unerringly like cattle!

        When the royal sceptre was coming down from heaven,

        the august crown and the royal throne being already down from heaven,

        he (the king) regularly performed to perfection the august divine services and offices,

        laid the bricks of those cities in pure spots.

            (Biblical “Eden”, the land of the gods “between the rivers” Euphrates & Tigris)

        They were named by name and allotted half-bushel baskets.

        The firstling of those cities, Eridu, she gave to the leader Nudimmud (Enki),

           2ba - Enki's Temple-Ziggourat in Eridu3b - Enki image (Enki‘s patron city Eridu in ruins; Enki)

          1a - Bad-tibira, Iraq   (Bad-tibira ruins; Dumuzi & Inanna)

        the second, Bad-Tibira, she gave to the prince (Dumuzi) and the sacred one (Inanna),

        the third, Larak, she gave to Pabilsag (Ninurta),

           2 - Utu's Temple destroyed by Noah's Flood2a - Utu, Shamash, twin to Inanna  (Sippar ruins & Utu)

        the fourth, Sippar, she gave to the gallant Utu.

         3b - Shuruppak, Ninlil's city south of Nippur

                                    (Ninlil‘s patron city ruins of Shuruppak, Enlil & his equal spouse Ninlil)

        The fifth, Shuruppak, she gave to Ansud (Ninlil).

        These cities, which had been named by names, and had been allotted half-bushel baskets,

        dredged the canals, which were blocked with purplish wind-borne clay, and they carried water.

        Their cleaning of the smaller canals established abundant growth.”

[lost account of the antediluvian rulers, and how human noise vexed the chief god Enlil so much that he persuaded the divine assembly to vote the destruction of man by the deluge] …

         2bb - Ninhursag & lab DNA experiments   (Ninhursag‘s early failures to produce a worker-race)

                (50,000 years of DNA manipulations to produce adequate replacement workers for the alien gods)

          “That day Nintur (Ninhursag) wept over her creatures and holy Inanna was full of grief over their people;

        but Enki took counsel with his own heart.

        An, Enlil, Enki, and Ninhursaga had the gods of heaven and earth swear by the names of An and Enlil.

        At that time, Ziusudra (Noah) was king and lustration priest.

        He fashioned, being a seer, the god of giddiness and stood in awe beside it, wording his wishes humbly.

            7e - Noah & Enki behind reed wall  (Noah overhears Enki‘s warnings of a coming flood)

         As he stood there regularly day after day something that was not a dream was appearing:

         conversation a swearing of oaths by heaven and earth,

         a touching of throats and the gods bringing their thwarts up to Kiur.

        And as Ziusudra stood there beside it, he went on hearing:

         “Step up to the wall (reed wall hiding Enki & Ningishzidda) to my left and listen!

          (Noah overhears Enki‘s warnings of a coming flood through a reed wall)

        Let me speak a word to you at the wall and may you grasp what I say, may you heed my advice!

        By our hand a flood will sweep over the cities of the half-bushel baskets, and the country;

        the decision, that mankind is to be destroyed has been made.

        A verdict, a command of the assembly cannot be revoked,

        an order of An and Enlil is not known ever to have been countermanded,

        their kingship, their term, has been uprooted they must bethink themselves of that.

        Now…What I have to say to you…”

[lost account of Enki‘s advice to build a boat and load it with pairs of living things, and Ziusudra‘s (Noah‘s) compliance]

         “All the evil winds, all stormy winds gathered into one and with them, then,

        the flood was sweeping over the cities of the half-bushel baskets for seven days and seven nights.

        After the flood had swept over the country,

          7i - Utnapishtim in the Ark  (Noah & family survive in the Ark)

        after the evil wind had tossed the big boat about on the great waters,

        the sun came out spreading light over heaven and earth.

        Ziusudra then drilled an opening in the big (submergeable) boat.

        And the gallant Utu (Sun god) sent his light into the interior of the big boat.

        Ziusudra, being (mixed-breed offspring of Enki,) king,

        stepped up before Utu kissing the ground before him.

        The king was butchering oxen, was being lavish with the sheep

        Barley cakes, crescents together with…

        …he was crumbling for him juniper, the pure plant of the mountains,

        he filled on the fire and with a …clasped to the breast he…”

           (Enlil smells Noah‘s Bar-B-Que, & discovers Noah alive by help of Enki)

[lost account of Enlil‘s wrath at finding survivor’s and his mollification by Enki]

          “You here have sworn by the life’s breath of heaven

        the life’s breath of earth that he verily is allied with yourself;

        you there, An and Enlil, have sworn by the life’s breath of heaven,

        the life’s breath of earth. that he is allied with all of you.

        He will disembark the small animals that come up from the earth!

        Ziusudra, being king, stepped up before An and Enlil kissing the ground.

        And An and Enlil after honoring him were granting him life like a god’s,

        were making lasting breath of life, like a god’s, descend into him.

          7aa - Shuruppak king Ziusudra - Noah & spouse (Noah‘s spouse & Noah made immortal by Enlil‘s decree)

        That day they made Ziusudra, preserver, as king,

        of the name of the small animals and the seed of mankind,

           2 - Dilmun location 

         (Dilmun, pristine lands given by Enki to his daughter Ninsikila; Noah‘s spouse, Noah, & Plant of Life)

        live toward the east over the mountains in mount Dilmun.

Ninsar Quotes From Texts

Ninsar = Ninhursag & Enki’s daughter, Ninkurra’s mother

goddess of Green Fields and Luscious Meadows

         “Enki distributed his semen destined for Damgalnuna (Ninhursag).

He poured semen into Ninhursaja’s (Ninhursag) womb

and she conceived the semen in the womb, the semen of Enki.

But her one month was one day,

but her two months were two days,

but her three months were three days,

but her four months were four days,

but her five months were five days,

but her six months were six days,

but her seven months were seven days,

but her eight months were eight days,

but her nine months were nine days.

In the month of womanhood, like juniper oil, like juniper oil,

like oil of abundance, Nintud, mother of the country,

          like juniper oil, gave birth to Ninsar. …”

 

        “Nine days later, without the slightest labor or pain,

         the Great Mother Goddess gave birth to a lovely girl

         without the slightest travail or pain.

         The girl was called Ninsar, Lady Verdure,

         the Mistress of Vegetation, the green carpet of grass, leaves

         and flower beds that cover the surface of the earth…”

        “Enki was overjoyed with the birth of his and Ninhursag’s child:…”

        “’How perfect, how lovely is our Ninsar!

         I love already the woman in the girl-child,

         the young Anunnaki goddess and Mistress of Velvet Meadows and Green Fields.

         The ties that bind me to Ninsar are strong” and tempered by an even greater love,

         for in her face I see also Ninhursag’s, the one and only to my wandering heart.’

         The Great Lady, holding Ninsar in her arms, kissed Enki in the mouth, and said:

         ‘Soon my time to leave Dilmun will come,

         I endow Ninsar with the power to grow in record time,

         and in holy Dilmun I’ll leave my youngster daughter

         safe and sound from any illness, hatred or harm.’ …

         nine days later Ninsar was fully grown, charming and graceful, a sight to behold.

        …Enki saw Ninsar walking on her own along the marshlands.

          Indeed, a lovely goddess she had become, and Enki’s eyes fell on the Maiden’s,…”

         “Enki did not lose time and immediately started wooing the young lady,

         encouraging her to love him wildly by the riverside.

         Curious and eager as Ninsar was to experience the power of love in her body,

         mind, soul, and heart,

         she, the young goddess of Green Fields and Luscious Meadows,

         yielded to the Sweet Waters Lord, and together they made wild love.

         But when morning came, Enki looked into Ninsar’s eyes and found her a loving,

         but pale portrait of Ninhursag…”

        “Enki stayed with Ninsar for a while, because he knew his seed could be her womb.

         So he stayed with her until the ninth day, when Ninsar gave birth to Ninkurra,

        another girl-child, the future goddess of Mountain Pastures…”

         “Sadly, Ninsar realized that although she had been

         passionately loved by Enki for a time,

         there was a longing in his eyes, his body, soul and mind she could not satisfy.

         ‘Bonded to him I for a time was,’ thought Ninsar,

         ‘but he does not want me for myself, this I can tell.

         Mine is not the mind, body, soul and heart

         that holds his for a minute that means eternity,

         so I’ll let him go, now and forever’…”

          “In turn Ninsar went out to the riverbank.

         Enki was able to see up there from in the marsh, he was able to see up there, he was.

         He said to his minister Isimud:

         ‘Is this nice youngster not to be kissed? Is this nice Ninsar not to be kissed?’

         His minister Isimud answered him:

         ‘Is this nice youngster not to be kissed? Is this nice Ninsar not to be kissed?’…”

         “First he put his feet in the boat, next he put them on dry land.

         He clasped her to the bosom, kissed her,

         Enki poured semen into the womb and she conceived the semen in the womb,

         the semen of Enki.

         But her one month was one day, but her two months were two days,

         but her nine months were nine days.

         In the month of womanhood, like juniper oil, like juniper oil, like oil of abundance,

         Ninsar, like juniper oil, like juniper oil,

         like oil of abundance, gave birth to Ninkura...”

Ninkurra Quotes From Texts

Ninkurra = daughter by Enki & Ninsar

(grand-daughter to Ninhursag)

Uttu & Ninimma’s mother

        “Ninsar gave birth to Ninkurra, another girl-child,

         the future goddess of Mountain Pastures.

         As before, Enki rejoiced at Ninkurra’s loveliness,

         at her cheerful smile and sweet face.

         Again, Enki saw in Ninkurra twice the mark of his beloved Ninhursag

        “ Ninkurra, who, like herself, grew in record time.

         Lovely, resourceful Ninkurra demonstrated enormous energy

         by climbing the highest heights, up to the mountain tops,

         but also keeping her essence tied to the ground.

         This way Ninkurra, the Goddess of Mountain Pastures

         grew safe from all hatred or harm.

         Another nine days passed by, and as Ninkurra played at a mountain top,

         curiosity led her to explore a well that surfaced out of the blue to water the greens

         and wild flower beds she had just made grow.

         To her sheer surprise and delight, the well took the shape of a handsome god,

         who introduced himself to her as Enki the Sweet Waters Lord.

         Again, Enki looked at Ninkurra’s young and cheerful face,

         and desired to dive into the maiden’s embrace,

         for she reminded him twice of Ninhursag,…

        “Ninkurra, who had lived a life so sheltered at the mountain heights,

         was fully bewitched by the easy charm of the older, more experienced god.

         Thus she joyously yielded to him and love they made for nine days and nine nights.

         But Enki soon realized that as lovely as Ninkurra was,

         she could not be compared to Ninhursag.

         As before, the Sweet Waters Lord left Ninsar after nine days,

         when Ninkurra gave birth to another lovely girl-child called Uttu,

         the Spider, the Weaver of Patterns and Life Desires…

        “Ninhursag…frowned at the sadness reflected in Ninsar’s and Ninkurra’s eyes,

         and frowned at Enki’s unbridled lust…”

         “In turn Ninkura went out to the riverbank.

         Enki was able to see up there from in the marsh, he was able to see up there, he was.

         He said to his minister Isimud:

         ‘Is this nice youngster not to be kissed? Is this nice Ninkura not to kissed?’

         His minister Isimud answered him:

         ‘Kiss this nice youngster. Kiss this nice Ninkura.

         My master will sail, let me navigate.

         He will sail, let me navigate.’

         First he put his feet in the boat, next he put them on dry land.

         He clasped her to the bosom, kissed her,

         the semen of Enki.

         But her one month was one day, but her nine months were nine days.

         In the month of womanhood, like juniper oil, like juniper oil, like oil of abundance,

         Ninkura, like juniper oil, like juniper oil, like oil of abundance,

         gave birth to Uttu, the exalted (?) woman…”

        

         “Ninkura in turn gave birth to Ninimma (instead of Uttu).

She brought the child up and made her flourish.

Ninimma in turn went out to the riverbank.

Enki was towing his boat along and was able to see up there, …….

          He laid eyes on Ninimma (Enki & Ninkura’s daughter) on the riverbank …”

Uttu Quotes From Texts

Uttu = Enki & Ninimma’s daughter,

  sometimes Enki & Ninkurru’s daughter

goddess of clothing, weaving

 

Uttu As Ninimma’s Daughter:

         Ninimma, like juniper oil, like oil of abundance,

         gave birth to Uttu, the exalted (?) woman.

         Nintud (Ninhursag) said to Uttu:

         ‘Let me advise you, and may you take heed of my advice.

         Let me speak words to you and may you heed my words.

         From in the marsh one man is able to see up here, is able to see up here, he is;

         from in the marsh Enki is able to see up here, is able to see up here, he is.

         He will set eyes on you.’

         ‘Bring cucumbers in ……, bring apples with their stems sticking out (?),

         bring grapes in their clusters, and in the house

         you will indeed have hold of my halter,

         O Enki, you will indeed have hold of my halter.’

         When he was filling with water a second time,

         he filled the dykes with water, he filled the canals with water,

         he filled the fallows with water.

         The gardener in his joy rose (?) from the dust and embraced him:

         ‘Who are you who …… the garden?’

         Enki (said to) …… the gardener:

         4 lines missing

         He brought him cucumbers in ……,

         brought him apples with their stems sticking out (?),

         brought him grapes in their clusters, filled his lap.

         Enki made his face attractive and took a staff in his hand.

         Enki came to a halt at Uttu’s, knocked at her house (demanding): ‘Open up, open up.’

         (She asked): ‘Who are you?’

         (He answered:) ‘I am a gardener.

         Let me give you cucumbers, apples, and grapes for your …Yes’.

         Joyfully Uttu opened the house. Enki gave Uttu, the exalted (?) woman,

         cucumbers in ……, gave her apples with their stems sticking out (?),

         gave her grapes in their clusters. (1 line not in the ms. from Nippur:

         He poured beer for her in the large ban measure.)

         Uttu, the exalted (?) woman, …… to the left for him, waved the hands for him.

         Enki aroused Uttu.

         He clasped her to the bosom, lying in her crotch,

         fondled her thighs, fondled her with the hand.

         He clasped her to the bosom, lying in her crotch,

         made love to the youngster and kissed her.

         Enki poured semen into Uttu’s womb

         and she conceived the semen in the womb, the semen of Enki.

         Uttu, the beautiful woman, cried out :

         ‘Woe, my thighs’. She cried out: ‘Woe, my liver. Woe, my heart.’

         Ninhursaja (Ninhursag) removed the semen from the thighs…

         Ninhursaja cursed the name Enki:

         ‘Until his dying day, I will never look upon him with life-giving eye.’…”

 

        “and since in the Land he neither fashioned the yarn of Uttu

         (the goddess of weaving) nor pegged out the loom for Uttu…”

 

        “There was no cloth to wear; Uttu had not been born —

         no royal turban was worn;…”

 

         “All the yarns of Uttu, the splendor of kingship, belong to me…”

        “For Enki the people…the…garment.

        The one who is the dignity of the palace, the decorum of the king,

         Uttu, the unfailing woman of silence, Enki placed in charge of them…”

        Uttu, the trustworthy woman, the joyous (?), Enki placed in charge of them…”

Uttu As Ninkurra’s Daughter:

          “Enki poured semen into the womb

and she conceived the semen in the womb, the semen of Enki.

But her one month was one day, but her nine months were nine days.

In the month of womanhood, like juniper oil,

like juniper oil, like oil of abundance,

Ninkura, like juniper oil, like juniper oil,

          like oil of abundance, gave birth to Uttu, the exalted (?) woman. …”

 

         “Ninkurra, who had lived a life so sheltered at the mountain heights,

         was fully bewitched by the easy charm of the older, more experienced god.

         Thus she joyously yielded to him and love they made for nine days and nine nights.

         But Enki soon realized that as lovely as Ninkurra was,

         she could not be compared to Ninhursag.

         As before, the Sweet Waters Lord left Ninsar after nine days,

         when Ninkurra gave birth to another lovely girl-child called Uttu,

         the Spider, the Weaver of Patterns and Life Desires…”

       

         “Nintud (Ninhursag) said to Uttu:

         ‘Let me advise you, and may you take heed of my advice.

         Let me speak words to you and may you heed my words.

         From in the marsh one man is able to see up here, is able to see up here, he is;

         from in the marsh Enki is able to see up here, is able to see up here, he is.

         He will set eyes on you.’…

        

         “Ninhursag…frowned at the sadness reflected in Ninsar’s and Ninkurra’s eyes,

         and frowned at Enki’s unbridled lust.

         Ninhursag knew how charming Enki could be,

         but no matter what, young Uttu the Weaver

         should be advised to avoid the riverbanks,

         or the places where Enki and herself could be found alone or unchaperoned:

         ‘Daughter Uttu, beware of the marshes and the riverbanks,

         where Enki, the Sweet Waters god, reigns as Sovereign.

         There he will see you, there he will desire you and want to make of you his own,

         only to leave you all alone later on!’ was Ninhursag’s stern advice to Uttu.

         For a time young Uttu did follow the Great Lady’s advice

         and kept her distance from Enki’s lusty sight.

         But one day Enki’s desire won the young goddess’ heart,

         when he brought to her delicacies from the garden of delights:

         apples, cucumbers and grapes, all this and more Enki offered to the young goddess.

         Then Uttu, full of joy, opened herself to welcome Enki, the crafty god,

         and he embraced her with heartfelt glee, lying in her lap content and happy.

         Loving strokes, kisses and hugs they shared,

         until Enki’s seed found its way to Uttu’s young and yet untried womb.

         Later, still lying on Enki’s powerful arms,

         doubt entered Uttu’s mind, body and heart:

         ‘Tonight you loved me so dearly, tonight I was your spouse,

         the one and only, your dearest,’ she thought .

         ‘But will you love me in the morning, o lustiest of all gods?

         Will you stay in my arms and never let me go

         And will you love for more than a holy night,

         and share with me happy and hard times?’

         But when morning came and Uttu looked into Enki’s eyes,

         she knew she still was not the one to hold captive the Sweet Waters Lord.

         With a tender kiss Enki took his leave,

         but did not say when he was going to come back, or ever returned to stay.

         Uttu swallowed stubborn tears,

         but decided not to surrender to loss and sorrow, and more.

         ‘I vow not to be bonded to Enki from this moment on,’

         she promised herself with a deep-rooted resolve.

         ‘If he does not want me for myself, for what we can together be,

         I will not carry any of his seeds within or without my very being!’

         Uttu immediately turned then to Ninhursag for help.

         The Great Mother goddess, beloved by all, would know what to do,

         would ensure the best course of action.

         ‘Wipe out Enki’s seed of your body,

         and bury within the depths of the Earth the promise of life you shared with him,’

         said the Great Lady and Womb of Creation.

         ‘Let the Earth receive and transform yours and Enki’s seed.

         And after you do this all, take your time so that your body,

         heart, mind and soul may heal.

         And I, who have known love, pain, sorrow and immense joy, give you,

         daughter, a very special blessing:

         may the wisdom of experience brought by such pain enter your being again

         and may you learn to ask as much as you give from your future lovers

         for as long as you live.

         Reciprocation is the key for everlasting relationships!’…”

(gods in bluemixed-breed demigods in teal…)

7 - when the gods did the work  (Anunnaki alien giants settle on Earth Colony)

Worker Gods Rebel

(I:1-73) When the gods, like man, bore the work, carried the labor-basket-

the labor-basket of the great gods- the work was heavy, much was the distress.

The seven great Anunnaki (Anu, Enlil & royal descendants) caused the Igigi to bear the work.

Anu their father was king (King of Heaven / Nibiru & Earth Colony).

Their counselor was heroEnlil.

Their “throne-bearer” was Ninurta (Enlil‘s son & heir, born of the “double seed” law of succession).

And their sheriff was Ennugi (minor son to Enlil).

These are the ones who seized power.

The gods cast lots and divided (the Cosmos):

  (Anu, father in heaven / planet Nibiru to royal descendants he put in charge of Earth Colony)

[Anu] went up to [heaven]

 (Enlil, Anu‘s son & heir, Anu‘s Earth Colony Commander)

[Enlil had] the earth as his subject;

[the lock,] the snare of the sea [was given] to Enki the wise.

            "God with a golden hand", initially completely gilded. The god wears a long "kaunakes" which leaves one shoulder free,typical of all divinities since Akkadian periods. From Susa, early 2nd mill.BCE. Copper and gold, H: 17,5 cm AO 2823 3a - Enki & Aquarius constellation (Enki, King Anu‘s eldest wisest son)

[After Anu] went up to heaven [and Enki w]ent down [to the ap[su, . . .

7a - when the gods did the work before man (alien gods farming the earth, forced into burdensome work)

(they caused] the Igigi (lesser gods under Enlil & Enki) [to bear the work].

21-36. These lines are fragmentary. Enough is left, however, to reveal that the gods’ work includes digging the Tigris and Euphrates rivers.

. . .

Forty more years . . . they bore the labor night and day.

They [weariedl, complained, [grum]bled in the workpits.

“Let us confront the throne-bearer that he may remove from us our [hea]vy labor.

. . . come on, let us confuse him in his dwelling,

 (Enki‘s group mining in SO Africa demanded to trade places, leading to battle with Enlil‘s group farming in the “Eden”)

Enlil, the counselor of the gods, the ‘hero,’ come on, let us confuse (?) him in his dwelling.”

47-60. Most of these lines are lost, fragmentary, or repetitious. But it is clear that one of the worker gods is speaking to the others and exhorting them to rebel. His speech ends with the following:

“Now, engage battle, stir up war and hostilities.”

The gods listened to his words.

They set fire to their implements, to their spades (they set) fire, their labor-baskets into the flames they threw.

They held them (as torches); they went to the gate of the shrine of hero Enlil.

It was night; at mid-watch the house was surrounded; the god did not know.

3a - nippur ziggurat, Enlil's home on Earth (E-kur, Enlil‘s ziggurat residence in Nippur, Earth Colony Command Central)

It was night; at mid-watch the Ekur was surrounded; Enlil did not know.

Enlil is Awakened

(I:74-98) Kalkal (Enlil‘s butler) observed and was disturbed.

He slid the bolt and looked [outward].

Kalkal awakened [Nusku (Enlil‘s chancellor & minor son)].

They listened to the noise of [the Igigi].

Nusku awakened [his] lord, made [him] get out of bed. ”

My lord, [your hou]se is surrounded; battle has come up to your gate.

Enlil, your [house is surroun]ded; battle has come up to your gate.”

Enlil had [his servant] come down into his dwelling.

Enlil opened his mouth and said to his vizier Nusku, ”

Nusku, lock your gate, take your weapon, stand before me.”

Nusku locked his gate, took his weapon and stood before Enlil.

Nusku opened his mouth and said to hero Enlil:

“My lord, these children are your own; they are your sons; why are you afraid?

Enlil, these children are your own; they are your sons; why are you afraid?

Send (the order) let them bring Anu down (to earth); let them bring Enki into your presence.”

Chief Gods Hold Council

(I:99-177) He sent and they brought Anu down; they brought Enki into his presence.

Anu, king of heaven, was seated.

The King of the Apsu, Enki, was in [attendance]; the great Anunnaki were seated.

Enlil arose . . .

Enlil opened his mouth and said to the great [gods]: “Against me have they come?

They have waged war …

Battle has come to my gate.”

Anu opened his mouth and said to hero Enlil,

“The matter of the Igigihas its reason been brought to you?

Let Nusku go out.

16-37. These lines ate too fragmentary for translation.

Enlil opened his mouth and said to (his vizier Nusku],

Nusku, open [your gate], take your weapon.

1g - images (hierarchy amongst the giant royal alien descendants of Anunnaki King Anu)

In the assembly [of all the gods] bow down, stand up, [say to them]:

[Your father] Anu has sent me, your counselor [hero Enlil],

your throne-bearer [Ninurta], and your sheriff [Ennugi].

Who is the one [who instigated] battle?

Who is the one who [provoked] hostilities?

Who is the one [who started the war?”

131-58. Most of these lines are either fragmentary or repetitious. It seems that Nusku goes to the rebel gods and repeats Enlil‘s words as he was instructed. Then, he returns to Enlil with their reply which he repeats as follows:

“Every [single one of us g]ods has started the war.

We . . . in the workpits.

8c - Enki & Gibil mining7b - farming in Enlil's Edin

(Anunnaki aliens working the fields, working the mines, etc., establishing bases for their long stay on Earth Colony)

Excessive [labor] has killed us; our wo[rk was heavy], much was the distress;

[and every] single one of us gods has spoken . . . with Enlil.”

Enlil heard these words and his tears flowed.

Enlil [heard] these words; he said [to] hero Anu,

“Noble one, with you in heaven carry your authority, take your power.

With the Anunnaki seated before you, call one god, let him be thrown to the netherworld.”

Anu opened his mouth and said to the gods, his brothers,

“Why are we accusing them? Their work is heavy, much is their distress.”

Nintu and Enki Plan Creation

(I:178-220) 178-88. There is a small gap in the text here. In later versions of the story, Enki, rather than Anu, is speaking at this time. In those versions Enki reveals his plan for creating the human race. In this version he is probably speaking when the story resumes:

2e - Ninhursag & DNA experiments (Ninhursag, Anu‘s daughter, Enlil‘s 1/2 sister, DNA Medical Scientist Specialist)

“While [Nintu (Ninhursag) the birth-goddess] is present,

let the birth-goddess create the offspring, let man bear the labor-basket of the gods.

They called the goddess and asked [her], the midwife of the gods, wise Mami (Ninhursag):

You are the birth-goddess, creatress of man.

1 - Primitive Man as Enki found him In the Abzu 6 - Adapa, model of modern man, meets Enlil

   (Enki & Ninhursag took earthlings from wild man to “modern man” in a blink of the eye, 50,000 years, creating a “missing link”)

Create lullu-man (Primitive Man), let him bear the yoke.

Let him bear the yoke, the work of Enlil; let man carry the labor-basket of the gods.”

Nintu opened her mouth and said to the great gods, ‘It is not properly mine to do these things.

He is the one who purifies all; let him give me the clay, and I will do (it).”

3aa - Ninhursag & Enki experiment 2b - Ninhursag & Enki in lab  (Ninhursag & brother Enki in the Kish DNA lab)

Enki opened his mouth and said to the great gods:

“At the new moon, the seventh day, and the full moon, I will set up a purifying bath.

Let them slaughter (extract DNA from) one god.

Let the gods be purified by immersion.

With his flesh and blood let Nintu mix the clay.

God and man- (DNA) let them be inseparably mixed in the clay; till the end of time let us hear the ‘drum.’

Let there be spirit from the god’s flesh; let her proclaim ‘alive’ as its sign;

for the sake of never-forgetting, let there be spirit.”

In the assembly, “Aye (Utu’s spouse),” answered the great gods, the administrators of destiny.

Human Race is Created

(I:221-304) At the new moon, the seventh day, and the full moon, he set up a purifying bath.

We-ila (unidentified), who had rationality, they slaughtered in their assembly.

With his flesh and blood (DNA, alien technology) Nintu (Ninhursag) mixed the clay.

4c - Ninhursag & Enki in the lab 2d - Ninhursag & attendee, Ninhursag's symbol (Ninhursag in her DNA lab)

Till the end [of days they heard the drum].

From the flesh of the god there was spirit.

She proclaimed “alive” as its sign.

For the sake of not-forgetting there was a spirit.

After she had mixed the clay, she called the Anunnaki, the great gods.

The Igigi, the great gods, cast their spittle (DNA) on the clay.

Mami (Ninhursag) opened her mouth and said to the great gods,

“You commanded me a task-I have completed it.

You slaughtered a god together with his rationality.

I have removed your heavy labor, have placed your labor-basket on man.

They entered the house of destiny,

Prince La (unidentified) and wise Mami.

With the birth goddesses assembled, he trod the clay in her presence.

She recited the incantation again and again.

Ea (Enki), seated before her, prompted her.

When she finished her incantation, she nipped off fourteen pieces of clay.

Seven pieces to the right, seven to the left, she placed.

Between them she placed the brick.

260-76. There is a gap in the text here. From an Assyrian version we learn that fourteen birth goddesses shape the clay. They make seven males and seven females and align them in pairs.

3c - Ninhursag, Inanna, & staff(NInhursag‘s nurses step forward as “birth goddesses“)

[The birth g]oddesses were assembled; Nintu was seated.

She counted the months.

At the destined [moment], they called the tenth month.

The tenth month came.

The end of the period opened the womb.

Her face was beaming, joyful.

Her head covered, she performed the midwifery.

 (Nintu‘s / Ninhursag & Enki in the lab)

She girded her loins; she made the blessing.

She patterned the flour and laid down the brick.

“I have created, my hands have done it.

Let them continually call Mami their . . . praise the birth goddess, praise Kesh (her city of Kish).

The Epic of Atra-Hasis Version 1

The translation offered here is adapted from the one by B.R. Foster.

The Epic of Atrahasis is the fullest Mesopotamian account of the Great Flood. The conditions immediately after the Creation, when the Lower Gods have to work very hard,

The text is known from several versions: two were written by Assyrian scribes (one in the Assyrian, one in the Babylonian dialect), a third one (on three tablets) was written during the reign of king Ammi-saduqa of Babylonia (1647-1626 BCE). Parts are quoted in Tablet XI of the Epic of Gilgameš; other influences are in the Babylonian History by Berossus (quote).

 Complaints of the Lower Gods

[1] When the gods were man they did forced labor, they bore drudgery.

2b - Enlil, parent in-laws Haia, Nisaba, & spouse Ninlil

  (Enlil with a plow, Haia – barley god / God of the Stores, Nisaba – Goddess of Grains & Master Scribe, Ninlilgrain goddess, & unidentified)

Great indeed was the drudgery of the gods, the forced labor was heavy, the misery too much:

1c - images  (Enlil‘s family did the work in “the Eden”; Enki‘s family worked in the mines of South Africa)

[5] the seven great Anunna-gods were burdening the [lesser] Igigi-gods with forced labor.

[Lacuna]

7a - when the gods did the work before man (“Eden”, prior to “modern man”, the gods did the work)

[21] The gods were digging watercourses, canals they opened, the life of the land.

The Igigi-gods were digging watercourses canals they opened, the life of the land.

1d - Edin's 4 rivers 2b - Ur Dynasty (the “Eden”, Ancient Sumer, “land of the gods”)

[25] The Igigi-gods dug the Tigris river and the Euphrates thereafter.

Springs they opened from the depths, wells … they established.…

3a - Utu in the mountains with weapons of brilliance Utu Shamash (Utu carves out launch & landing pads)

They heaped up all the mountains.

[Several lines missing]

… years of drudgery.

[35] … the vast marsh (Enki drained).

They counted years of drudgery, … and forty years, too much! (Anunnaki age 1 year = 3,6oo Earth-years)

7b - farming in Enlil's Edin  (when the gods did the work, there was much complaining)

… forced labor they bore night and day.

They were complaining, denouncing, muttering down in the ditch:

“Let us face up to our foreman the prefect, he must take off our heavy burden upon us!

Enlil, counselor of the gods, the warrior, come, let us remove him from his dwelling;

 (Enlil, Earth Colony Commander, his group had it much easier in Eden than the others mining)

[45] Enlil, counselor of the gods, the warrior, come, let us remove him from his dwelling!”

[Several lines missing]

  (alien vs. alien, god vs. god)

[61] “Now them, call for battle, battle let us join, warfare!”

The gods heard his words: they set fire to their tools,

Farming - clay Sumerian sickle  (clay sickle, like everything else, another 1st discovered in Mesopotamia)

[65] they put fire to their spaces, and flame to their workbaskets.

Off they went, one and all, to the gate of the warrior Enlil‘s abode….

3a - nippur ziggurat, Enlil's home on Earth2e - Enlil's home in Nippur (Enlil‘s mud-brick-built ziggurat residence in Nippur)

        Insurrection of the Lower Gods

[70] It was night, half-way through the watch, the house was surrounded, but the god did not know.

It was night, half-way through the watch,

Ekur (Enlil‘s temple / residence in Nippur) was surrounded, but Enlil did not know!

[Several lines missing; the great gods send a messenger]

The Great Gods Send a Messenger

[132] Nusku (Enlil‘s son & chancellor) opened his gate, took his weapons and went … Enlil.

In the assembly of all the gods,

1h - procession-lg (King Anu‘s descendants, directing Earth’s events)

3b - Anu of planet Nibiru1ae - Enlil, Babylonian

(alien planet Nibiru King Anu;, Anu‘s son & heir Enlil)

the warrior Enlil, your prefect, Ninurta, and your bailiff Ennugi have sent me to say:

[140] ‘Who is the instigator of this battle?

Who is the instigator of these hostilities?

Who declared war, that battle has run up to the gate of Enlil?

In …

[145] he transgressed the command of Enlil.'”

Reply by the Lower Gods

“Everyone of us gods has declared war; …

We have set … un the excavation, excessive drudgery has killed us,

[150] our forced labor was heavy, the misery too much!

Now, everyone of us gods has resolved on a reckoning with Enlil.”

[The great gods decide to create modern man, to relieve the lower gods from their misery.]

3aa - Ninhursag & Enki experiment (Ninhursag & brother Enki with “Tree of Life“, alien Medical Science Engineers)

Proposals by Ea (Enki) & Belet-ili (Ninhursag)

[a1]Ea (Enki) made ready to speak, and said to the gods, his brothers:

“What calumny do we lay to their charge?

Their forced labor was heavy, their misery too much!

[a5] Every day … the outcry was loud, we could hear the clamor.

There is … Belet-ili (Ninhursag), the midwife, is present.

Let her create, then, a human, a man (workers),

7d - Earthlings Learn to Farm (Enlil makes decision to have earthlings bear the yoke of the gods work)

[a10] Let him bear the yoke! Let him bear the yoke!

3b - Ninhursag, goddesses, & the Elixer of Life 3ca - Ninhursag & helpers (Ninhursag & nurses)

[190] Let the midwife create a human being!

Let man assume the drudgery of the god.”

“Will you be the birth goddess, creatress of mankind?

2b - Ninhursag & Enki in lab 2d - Ninhursag & attendee, Ninhursag's symbol (Ninhursag in lab mixing DNA)

(alien Anunnaki giants tire of the burdensome labor needed to get the work accomplished for colonizing Earth)

let him bear the yoke, the task of Enlil, let man assume the drudgery of the god.”

Nintu (Ninhursag) made ready to speak, and said to the great gods:

 2d - Enki & DNA experimentations 2b - Enki & his hybred experiments

               (Enki‘s DNA experiments attempting to create workers for mining, farming, etc., replacement labor for the gods)

[200] “It is not for me to do it, the task is Enki‘s.

He it is that cleanses all, let him provide me the clay so I can do the making.”

Enki made ready to speak,

[205] and said to the great gods:

“On the first, seventh, and fifteenth days of the month, let me establish a purification, a bath.

Let one god be slaughtered, then let the gods be cleansed by immerson.

4c - Ninhursag & Enki in the lab3e - Enki & Nimmah test tubing Adamu

    (lab work of Ninhursag & Enki, together holding Ninhursag‘s symbol, the umbilical-chord-cutter / omega / ohm, etc.)

[210] Let Nintu mix clay with his (DNA) flesh and blood.

Let that same god and man be thoroughly mixed in the clay.

Let us hear the drum for the rest of the time.

[215] From the flesh of the god let a spirit remain, let it make the living know its sign,

lest he be allowed to be forgotten, let the spirit remain.

The great Anunna-gods, who administer destinies,

[220] answered “yes!” in the assembly.

  The Creation of Man

             2a - Anunnaki experiment to make workers

             2 - Primitive Man - Enki Found In Abzu6 - Adapa, model of modern man, meets Enlil (wild man to modern man, the “missing link”)

On the first, seventh, and fifteenth days of the month, he established a purification, a bath.

2e - Ninhursag & DNA experiments 1aa - Ningishzidda & Dna1d - Ningishzidda's symbol of entwined serpants

  (Mesopotamian DNA symbols, giant alien gods combining the DNA of two different worlds; as the Biblical verse in Genesis, God said “Let us make man into our image & into our likeness”…)

[225] Nintu mixed clay with his flesh and blood (DNA).

That same god and man were thoroughly mixed in the clay (alien high-tech).

For the rest of the time they would hear the drum.

From the flesh of the god the spirit remained.

It would make the living know its sign.

[230] Lest he be allowed to be forgotten, the spirit remained.

After she had mixed the clay, she summoned the Anunna (Anunnaki), the great gods.

1e - procession-lg

   (alien giants from planet Nibiru who colonized Earth tens of thousands of years ago)

The Igigi, the great gods, spat (DNA) upon the clay.

         [235] Mami (Ninhursag) made ready to speak, and said to the great gods:

“You ordered me the task and I have completed it!

You have slaughtered the god, along with his inspiration.

4 - Ninhursag in her Lab, holding the molded Adapa (Adapa / Biblical Adam is born, Ninhursag is successful!)

[240] I have done away with your heavy forced labor, I have imposed your drudgery on man.

1b - Nintu (Ninhursag & Enki worked 50,000 years to develop adequate replacement workers for the gods)

You have bestowed clamor upon mankind.

I have released the yoke, I have made restoration.”

They heard this speech of hers,

4i - Enki & baby Adapa, created by Ninhursag (Enki & baby Adapa / Biblical Adam in Eridu)

[245] they ran, free of care, and kissed her feet, saying:

“Formerly we used to call you Mami, now let your name be Belet-kala-ili (Mistress of all the gods)!”

8a - Enki & Ninhursag ith offspring & clones (earthling workers become available to serve the gods)

[The population increases and their noise disturbs the gods, who decide to wipe out mankind. The god Enki, however, sends a dream to Atrahasis.]

Atrahasis‘ Dream Explained

[i.b35] Enlil committed an evil deed against the people.

[i.c.11]Atrahasis (Noah) made ready to speak, and said to his lord:

“Make me know the meaning of the dream, let me know, that I may look out for its consequence.”

 (Enki informs Noah of the impending doom through a reed wall)

[i.c15] Enki made ready to speak, and said to his servant:

“You might say, ‘Am I to be looking out while in the bedroom?’

          Do you pay attention to message that I speak for your:

          [i.c20] Wall, listen to me! Reed wall, pay attention to all my words!

[i.c25] The boat which you build … be equal …

Roof her over like the depth,

[i.c30] so that the sun shall not see inside her (submergeable boat).

Let her be roofed over fore and aft.

The gear should be very strong, the pitch should be firm, and so give the boat strength.

I will shower down upon you later

             (Ningishzidda, water clock, Noah, reed wall, & Enki behind it, Enki‘s warning of the upcoming flood, arranged by Enlil)

        

         Atrahasis and the Elders

Atrahasis received the command.

He assembled the Elders at his gate.

[i.c.40 ]Atrahasis made ready to speak, and said to the Elders:

            

“My god does not agree with your god, Enki and Enlil are constantly angry with each other.

They have expelled me from the land.

             (Enki scolded by Enlil for protecting Noah)

[i.c45] Since I have always reverenced Enki (Noah‘s father), he told me this.

I can not live in …

Nor can I set my feet on the earth of Enlil.

I will dwell with my god in the depths (Enki‘s zone, the abzu).

[i.c50] This he told me: …”

Construction of the Ark

[ii.10] The Elders …

The carpenter carried his ax, the reedworker carried his stone,

the rich man carried the pitch, the poor man brought the materials needed.

The outlook of the weather changed.

2c - Adad, fork & hammer  (Adad, thunder god with his high-tech alien weaponry, winged flying disc above, Taurus the Bull below)

The wind resounded like a screaming eagle.

The darkness was dense, the sun was gone, … like flies.

[iii.20] the clamor of the deluge.

[Lacuna. The gods find themselves hungry because there are no farmers left and sacrifices are no longer brought. When they discover that Atrahasis has survived, they make a plan to make sure that the noise will remain within limits: they invent childbirth, infant mortality, and celibacy.]

Mankind Punished

[iii.45] Enki made ready to speak, and said to Nintu the birth goddess:

“You, birth goddess, creatress of destinies, establish death for all peoples!

[iii.d1] “Now then, let there be a third woman among the people,

among the people are the woman who has born and the woman who has not born.

Let there be also among the people the pasittu (she-demon):

[iii.d5] let her snatch the baby from the lap who bore it.

And establish high priestesses and priestesses,

let them be taboo [celibate], and so cut down childbirth.
