Welcome to Mesopotamia

There were hundreds of gods who were responsible for everything in the world, from rivers and trees to making bread and pottery.

Each city was protected by its own special god or goddess and their family. Large temples were built in the centre of the city for these gods to live in. Priests looked after the gods with special rituals. There were also smaller temples throughout the city where ordinary people could make offerings.

Bull man Demons were created by the gods with human bodies and animal or bird heads. They could be either evil or good. Monsters were a mixture of animals and birds.

Gods and Goddesses of the Canaanites, Sumerians, Hittites, Assyrians, and Babylonians And Lady Asherah of the Sea replies: "Thy word, El, is wise; Thou art wise unto eternity; Lucky life is Thy word.
Our king is Aliyan Baal,
Our judge, and none is above Him.
Let both of Us drain His chalice;
Both of Us drain His cup!"

Hail, Inanna, Sister-Companion along my path,
I sing your Name and bid you welcome into my heart,
You are the Star, illuminating my day and night,
Wondrous Truth, I´ve always known that I´d find.
Hail, Inanna, I lend you graces,
Hail, Ereshkigal, yours is my praise.
Trust, love and faith freely given I bring,
Mine is the voice, but for all I sing
Hail, Inanna and Ereshkigal,
Forever Queens.
