Anu

Anu

In Sumerian mythology, An or Anu was the god of the sky, lord of the constellations, king of the gods, who lived with his wife, the goddess Ki, in the highest regions of the sky. It was believed that he had the power to judge those who had committed crimes, and that he had created the stars as soldiers to destroy the wicked. Her attribute was the royal tiara. His servant and minister was the god Ilabrat. He was one of the oldest gods of the Sumerian pantheon, and was part of a triad of great gods, along with Enlil, god of air and atmosphere and Enki, god of the earth or the "foundations." He was considered as the father and first king of the gods. Anu is associated with the E-anna temple of the city of Uruk in southern Babylon and there is good reason to believe that this place would be the original seat of the cult of Anu. If this were correct, then the goddess Inanna of Uruk may, at some point, have been her consort. It was later assimilated by the god Assur, and the god Marduk. En la mitología sumeria, An o Anu era el dios del cielo, señor de las constelaciones, rey de los dioses, que vivía con su esposa, la diosa Ki, en las regiones más altas del cielo. Se creía que tenía el poder de juzgar a los que habían cometido delitos, y que había creado las estrellas como soldados para destruir a los malvados. Su atributo era la tiara real. Su sirviente y ministro era el dios Ilabrat. Fue uno de los más antiguos dioses del panteón sumerio, y formaba parte de una tríada de grandes dioses, junto a Enlil, dios del aire y la atmósfera y a Enki, dios de la tierra o de los "cimientos". Era considerado como el padre y primer rey de los dioses. Anu es asociado con el templo E-anna de la ciudad de Uruk, en el sur de Babilonia y hay buenas razones para creer que este lugar sería la sede original del culto a Anu. Si esto fuese correcto, entonces la diosa Inanna de Uruk puede, en algún momento, haber sido su consorte. Fue posteriormente asimilado por el dios Assur, y el dios Marduk.
