(gods in blue)

…… who has taken her seat on an exalted dais, ……, imbued with awesomeness, an amazing sight,

2 - Bau-Gula, spouse to Ninurta & mother to Ninsun (Bau, daughter to King Anu, spouse-aunt to Ninurta, & her guard dog Tuni-iu-sag)

…… Nininsina (Bau / Gula), joyously fresh, ……, gathering up the divine powers, she announces the rites.

…… Nininsina …… with intricate skill.

……, ministering with intricate skill, she gathers up the divine powers (alien technologies);

Nininsina, ministering with intricate skill, she gathers up the divine powers.

She takes in her hands the august divine powers.

She attaches the incrustations to the great garment, while speaking favorable words.

5aa - Bau & possibly son Damu, medical doctors (son Damu & Bau, doctors to gods & black-headed earthlings)

She tests the surgical lancet; Nininsina sharpens the scalpel.

She has made perfect the divine powers (alien technologies) of medicine,

and hands them over to her son, the king of Jirsi, the kindly Damu:

5a - Bau & son Damu, medical treatment (Damu & Bau, her guard dog, & Ninurta)

My son, pay attention to everything medical!

Damu, pay attention to everything medical!

He takes the bandages and wipes them; he treats the bandages with embrocation,

and softens the plaster that had been put on them.

He mops up the blood and suppuration, and places a warm hand on the horrid wound.

My lady, the midwife of the mothers of the Land,

              (bottom panel: Bau seated next to a patient)

is the chief doctor of the black-headed; Nininsina, the daughter of An,

hands this all over to her son, the king of Jirsi, the kindly Damu:

5b - Bau & son administer medical attention (alien doctors Damu & mother Bau kneeling)

“My son, pay attention to everything medical!

Damu, pay attention to everything medical!

You will be praised for your diagnoses.”

5c - Bau & helpers attend to illness (Princess Bau watches son Damu administer medical attention)

Holy Nininsina performs for him her role as incantation priest,

 

            (Anu with 2 others in his sky-disc above the Tree of Life;            Enki with his flowing waters of life)

which Enki bestowed on her from the princely abzu (marshlands of Persian Gulf).

Because of the anxiety and intestinal disease which pursue mankind,

this person writhes like a …… snake, hissing like a snake in waste ground,

always calling out anew: “My heart! My stomach!”

My lady performs the incantations perfectly.

Nininsina speaks the incantation formula over them and they become better.

She performs the incantation with ghee,

and pours it into her great bowl, bringing it along in her cooling hands.

She makes the illness leave this person’s body like wind.

Like a raging fire of esparto grass, it dies out of its own accord.

The personal gods of mankind stand before her pleading and praying;

3b - Anu of planet Nibiru 1ae - Enlil, Babylonian (Anunnaki alien King Anu with son & heir Enlil, Earth Colony Commander)

at their request, holy Nininsina intercedes before An (Anu) and Enlil for them at his highest cult place:

“The evil demons and the evil demonesses who beset mankind,

Dim-me (unidentified) and Dim-mea (unidentified) who enter by night,

Namtar (from Under World) and Asag (?) who will not leave a man alone, stand before the man.

He is robbed of sleep (?).

His god who smites all

1 line unclear

That man calls a dream interpreter, wishing to have knowledge of the future.

The man for whom the demonic illness has been too great utters pleas to holy Nininsina,

utters prayers to her: “My lady, I come to do homage to you!”

Then your incantation descends onto the man,

and you will treat him like a youth who has a protective deity.

Afterwards, when you have stretched out your finger over him,

he will himself praise you fittingly and call upon your name favorably!

My lady searched intensively on her own (?),

concerned herself with things that otherwise one does not bother with,

directed her attention to things that otherwise one does not do.

Proudly she …… the rank of Mistress, and my lady took away all the divine powers established for it.

At that time, the jewelery of cuba stones did not exist;

1b - Bau, Gula - Ninurta's spouse, Anu's daughter (Bau wearing cuba stone necklace, & nephew-spouse Ninurta, Enlil‘s heir)

no jewelery of cuba stones was worn on the neck.

Nininsina invented it: it was she who plowed with the cuba stones, she who made them into seeds.

For (?) the goddess, the great Mistress of heaven, she invented the jewelery of cuba stones.

Radiating terrifying splendor as she grasped it, she placed it joyously on her head.

To create offspring for thousands of young women,

2b - Ninhursag & Enki in lab  2b-enki-his-hybred-experiments

(Ninhursag & brother Enki with umbilical chord cutter, children of King Anu & leaders on Earth;   Enki in the abzu with DNA experiments, Anunnaki working to develop earthling hybrids to become their adequate replacement workers)

to make things in order like a potter, to cut the umbilical cord, to determine destinies,

to place a hand on the door of the Nijin-jar (a part of Nininsina‘s temple at Isin),

……, to let the human child scream loud and long after it is received in the embrace,

to turn his belly downwards and to turn it upside down,

to …… the office of Mistress, to treat it quickly, to wash ……

— after she has made all these great divine powers (alien technologies) appear gloriously,

and my lady has spoken praise …… in addition, Nininsina praises herself fittingly:

4c - Bau & her dog (boundary stone of Bau, used by her to protect boundaries of kingdoms & land grants)

“I am the lady, the youthful woman, the great strength of Enlil!

I am the beautiful woman Nininsina, daughter of holy An!

 (King Anu in sky-disc, ruler of their planet’s one-world-order, & of Earth Colony)

My father An the king, shepherd of the gods, sat me in the Land on a holy dais.

My mother Urac (Nammu), the lady of the gods, had momentous sexual intercourse with An,

relaxing in the holy bedchamber; my place of engendering by holy An was a holy place.

1a - Isin, Iraq (areal view, Bau‘s patron city-state & house in Isin, now heavily looted)

My house is the house of Isin, the cosmic border of heaven and earth,

a fragrant cedar forest whose perfume does not diminish;

its interior is a mountain established in plenteousness.

2a - Dilmun & Magan  (Dilmun, pristine lands given to Enki‘s daughter Ninsikila)

Before the land of Dilmun ever existed, my house was created from a date palm.

3d-ninurta-his-spouse-bau-gula  (Royal Princess Bau & spouse Royal Prince & heir to kingship, Ninurta)

Before the land of Dilmun ever existed, Isin was created from a date palm.

Its dates are like a great linen garment that hangs on a tree, heaped up into piles.

Feasting - banquet scene in Nippur   (gods feast as earthlings work)

The Anuna (Anunnaki), the great gods, eat together with me.

My house is a place of healing, full of opulence, the place of the formation of the Land.

At night it shines to me like the moonlight; in the noonday heat it shines to me like the sunlight.

3a-ninurta-unknowns-spouse-bau  (Ninurta & his Royal Princess spouse Bau)

My husband, lord Pabilsaj (Ninurta), the son of Enlil, lies inside with me ……, enjoying his rest there.

My watercourse is the Kir-sig watercourse, which produces plenty for eating,

which spreads out over the wheat; in it the flowing water always rises high for me.

Its banks make syrup and wine grow there, and make their produce rich for me.

  (Earth Colony Commander Enlil, father to Ninurta, & 1/2 brother to Bau)

“The heart of the Great Mountain Enlil became fearsome:

he frowned at the enemy land, and cursed the rebel land.

My father Enlil dispatched me to the rebel land, the enemy land that he had frowned at —

me, the young woman, me, the strong heroine — I went there.

2b - Gula & her dog (Bau the prison warden, with her guard dog Tuni-iu-sag)

I made the shepherd of the rebel land there grasp Enlil‘s words well in his ears.

He became frightened at me and became silent (?) in my presence,

after I had stormed (?) in his ear for him.

Now no one knows him there in the destroyed city, no one finds the shepherd there in his pastures.

After I had destroyed it like water, drowned it like the harvest,

after I had grabbed him as a threshing sledge grabs barley,

after I had set him ablaze like esparto grass, I struck him with the mace and killed him.

I announced the news to my father (½ brother) Enlil in Nibru (Nippur).

2f - Bau, Enlil & Anu (Bau, Enlil, & their father King Anu)

“I am the lady who sits upon terrifying divine powers (alien technologies)!

I am she who is endowed from holy heaven with the office of incantation priestess!

I am she who withdraws the first fruits from the palace,

I am she who has received the divine powers from the most elevated dais.

I am mighty, I am the forceful one of An (Anu) and Urac (Nammu),

I am the great lady of the gods!

My terror is fearsome as it weighs on the Land;

2ab - Bau & Ninurta, boundary stone detail2a - Bau, her dog, & spouse Ninurta (Bau & spouse Ninurta / Ningirsu)

my terrifying splendor burdens all the foreign lands.

No man anticipates my commands.

I am the lady, I am heroic, I am youthful, I am the powerful one of the Land!

The heavens fold themselves in my presence like a mourning garment;

the earth is more and more submerged as if by the water of a flood when I am present.

I am the neck-stock of the Land which grips mankind.

I am she who hastens like a north wind storm into the midst of the people!

I am she who hears prayer and pleading!”

1d - Bau, spouse to Ninurta (Bau seated on her throne in Isin)

Praise be to holy Nininsina.

A cir-gida of Nininsina.
