The Farmer’s Instructions

The Electronic Text Corpus of Sumerian Literature

The Sumerian Farmer´s Instructions was inscribed about 1,700 BCE, thus predating Hesiod´s work by approximately a millennium. The piece is also known as The Instructions of Ninurta.

(Texts: All Artifacts, Color Coding, & Writings in Bold Type With Italics Inside Parenthesis, are Added by Editor R. Brown, not the Authors, Translators, or Publishers!)

(gods in blue)

1 Ud-ul-uru (Old man cultivator) gave advice to his son:

2-7 “When you have to prepare a field, inspect the levees, canals and mounds that have to be opened.

When you let the flood water into the field, this water should not rise too high in it.

At the time that the field emerges from the water, watch its area with standing water; it should be fenced.

Do not let cattle herds trample there.

8-13 After you cut the weeds and establish the limits of the field,

level it repeatedly with a thin hoe weighing two-thirds of a mina (approx. 650 g).

Let a flat hoe erase the oxen tracks, let the flied be swept clean.

A maul should flatten the furrow bottoms of the area.

A hoe should go round the four edges of the field.

Until the field is dry it should be smoothed out.

14-22 Your implements should be ready.

The parts of your yoke should be assembled.

Your new whip should hang from a nail —

the bindings of the handle of your old whip should be repaired by artisans.

The adze, drill and saw, your tools and your strength, should be in good order.

Let braided thongs, straps, leather wrappings and whips be attached securely.

Let your sowing basket be checked, and its sides made strong.

What you need for the field should be at hand.

Inspect your work carefully.

(earthlings learn to work for the gods in the fields)

23-29 The plow oxen will have back-up oxen.

The attachments of ox to ox should be loose.

Each plow will have a back-up plow.

The assigned task for one plow is 180 iku (approx. 65 ha),

but if you build the implement at 144 iku (approx. 52 ha), the work will be pleasantly performed for you.

180 (?) sila of grain (approx. 180 liters) will be spent on each 18 iku area (approx. 6 1/2 ha).

30-34 After working one plow’s area with a bardil plow,

(earthlings & animal workers for the gods)

and after working the bardil plow’s area with a tugsig plow, till it with the tuggur plow.

Harrow once, twice, three times.

When you flatten the stubborn spots with a heavy maul,

the handle of your maul should be securely attached, otherwise it will not perform as needed.

35-40 When your field work becomes excessive, you should not neglect your work;

no one should have to tell anyone else: “Do your field work!”.

When the constellations in the sky are right, do not be reluctant to take the oxen force to the field many times.

The hoe should work everything.

41-45 When you have to work the field with the seeder-plow, your plow should be properly adjusted.

Put a leather sealing on the kacu of your plow.

Provide your beam with narrow pegs.

Your boards should be spread. Make your furrows.

46-54 Make eight furrows per ninda of width (approx. 6 m); the barley will lodge in more closely spaced furrows.

(knowledge learned from the alien gods)

When you have to work the field with the seeder-plow, keep your eye on the man who drops the seed.

The grain should fall two fingers deep (approx. 3 1/2 cm).

You should put one gij of seed per ninda (approx. 3 ml/m).

If the barley seed is not being inserted into the hollow of the furrow, change the wedge of your plow share.

If the bindings become loose, tighten them.

55-63 Where you have made vertical furrows, make slanted furrows,

and where you have made slanted furrows, make vertical furrows.

Straight furrows will give you edges that are wide enough and nice (?).

Your crooked furrows should be straightened out.

Make the furrows clear.

Plow your portion of field.

The clods should be picked out.

The furrows should be made wide where the soil is open,

and the furrows should be narrower where the soil is clogged: it is good for the seedlings.

64-73 After the seedlings break open the ground, perform the rites against mice.

Turn away the beaks of small birds.

When the plants overflow the narrow bottoms of the furrows, water them with the water of the first seed.

When the plants resemble a …… reed mat, water them.

Water the plants when they are heading.

When the plants are fully leafed out, do not water them or they will become infected by leaf rust.

When the barley is right for husking, water it.

It will provide a yield increase of one sila per ban (approx. 1 liter in 10).

74-80 When you have to reap the barley, do not let the plants become overripe.

Harvest at the right time.

One man is to cut the barley, and one to tie the sheaves;

and one before him should apportion the sheaves: three men should harvest for you.

Do not let those who gather the barley bruise the grain.

They should not scatter the grain when it is in the stacks.

81-90 Your daily work starts at daybreak.

Gather your force of helpers and grain gatherers in sufficient number and lay down the sheaves.

Your work should be carefully done.

Although they have been having stale coarse flour,

do not let anyone thresh for your new bread — let the sheaves have a rest.

The rites for the sheaves should be performed daily.

When you transport your barley, your barley carriers should handle small amounts (?).

91-95 Mark the limits of a vacant lot of yours.

Establish properly your access paths to it.

Your wagons should be in working order.

Feed the wagon’s oxen. Your implements should be …….

96-103 Let your prepared threshing floor rest for a few days.

When you open the threshing floor, smooth its surface (?).

When you thresh, the teeth of your threshing sledge and its leather straps should be secured with bitumen.

When you make the oxen trample the grain, your threshers should be strong.

When your grain is spread on the ground, perform the rites of the grain not yet clean.

104-106 When you winnow, put an intelligent person as your second winnower.

Two people should work at moving the grain around.

107-109 When the grain is clean, lay it under the measuring stick.

Perform the rites in the evening and at night.

Release the grain at midday.

110-111 Instructions of the god Ninurta, son of Enlil —

(alien giant Anunnaki did the burdensome work with much complaint, prior to fashioned earthling workers)

Ninurta, faithful farmer of Enlil, your praise be good!”

(gods in blue …mixed-breed demigods in teal…)

(Ninhursag‘s creature creation = Enkidu)

In this composition, the word al ‘hoe’ is used as often as possible, as well as many nouns or verb forms beginning with — or merely containing — the syllable al (occasionally also ar).

^1-7Not only did the lord make the world appear in its correct form —

the lord who never changes the destinies which he determines:

(Enlil, son & heir to Anunnaki King Anu, his father’s Earth Colony Commander, his decisions are final)

Enlil, who will make the human seed of the Land come forth

(3 mss. have instead: up) from the earth (2 other mss. have instead: chamber) —

and not only did he hasten to separate heaven from earth, and hasten to separate earth from heaven,

but, in order to make it possible for humans to grow in ‘Where Flesh Came Forth’

(2 mss. have instead: ‘Where Flesh Grew’) [the name of a cosmic location],

(Enlil‘s residence & Earth Colony Command Center in his city of Nippur)

he first suspended (2 mss. have instead: raised) the axis of the world at Dur-an-ki (“Bond Heaven and Earth”).

^8-17He did this with the help of the hoe (al) — and so daylight broke forth (aled).

By distributing (altare) the shares of duty he established daily tasks,

and for the hoe (al) and the carrying-basket wages were even established.

Then Enlil praised his hoe (al), his hoe (al) wrought in gold,

its top inlaid with lapis lazuli (blue-hued gem stone), his hoe (al) whose blade was tied on with a cord,

which was adorned with silver and gold, his hoe (al), the edge of whose point (?) was a plow of lapis lazuli,

whose blade was like a battering ram standing up to a great (gal) wall

(1 ms. has instead: born for a great (gal) person (?)).

The lord evaluated the hoe (al), determined its future destiny and placed a holy crown on its head …….

^18-27Here, in ‘Where Flesh Came Forth’ (1 ms. has instead: ‘Where Flesh Grew’)

[the name of a cosmic location], he set this very hoe (al) to work;

(1 other ms. has instead: in ‘Where Flesh Grew’ the unassailable (?),)

he had it place the first model of mankind in the brick mold (aliens cloning workers, DNA technologies).

His Land started to break through the soil towards Enlil.

(Enlil & Enki served by earthling primitives, “modern man”)

He looked with favor at his black-headed people.

Now the Anuna gods stepped forward to him, and did (jal) obeisance to him.

They calmed Enlil with a prayer, for they wanted to demand (al-dug) the black-headed people (workers) from him.

(Ninhursag, Enki, & Ningishzidda worked the DNA mixing of alien giants with upright walking primitives, SEE ADAPA TEXTS)

Ninmena (Ninhursag), the lady who had given birth to the ruler,

(“modern man” fashioned by alien giants, to replace Anunnaki workers from their heavy burdens, Anunnaki leader Enlil demanded workers for Eden from Enki‘s group in the mines of SO Africa, creating problems between the Anunnaki)

who had given birth to the king, now set (aljaja) human reproduction going.

^28-34The leader of heaven and earth, lord Nunamnir (Enlil),

named the important persons and valued (kal) persons.

He …… these persons, and recruited them to provide for the gods (in Eden).

Now Enki praised Enlil‘s hoe (al), and the maiden Nisaba (Enlil‘s mother-in-law) was made responsible

(Nisaba, alien Anunnaki Master Scribe, Goddess of Grains, many of her records discovered)

for keeping records of the decisions.

And so people took (jal) the shining hoes (al), the holy hoes (al), into their hands.

(mud brick-built mountain / temple / residence of Enlil & Ninlil, city of Nippur below)

^35-42The E-kur, the temple of Enlil, was founded by the hoe (al).

By day it was building (aldue) it, by night it caused the temple to grow (almumu).

(earthling mixed-breed shepherd, Ninurta, & Enlil handing earthlings the burden of the plow, our solar system in background)

In well-founded Nibru, the hero Ninurta entered into the presence of Enlil

in the inner chamber of the Tummal –the Tummal, the bread basket (?)

(1 ms. has instead: …… masterpiece (?)) of mother Ninlil —

the innermost chamber of the Tummal, with regular food deliveries.

(Bau & her nephew-spouse Ninurta, Enlil‘s son & heir)

Holy Ninisina (Bau / Gula) entered into the presence of Enlil with black kids and fruit offerings for the lord.

^43-45Next comes the Abzu, with the lions before it,

where the divine powers (alien technologies) may not be requested (al-dug): the hoe wielder (?) (altar), the good man,

5e - Enki & Adapa 2e - Eridu temple reconstruction

(1st “modern man” the “mold” to start the new species of advanced earthlings, Enki, the DNA Master; Enki‘s house in Eridu)

lord Nudimmud (Enki) was building (aldue) the Abzu, Eridug having been chosen as the construction site (altar).

(Ninhursag‘s early failed attempts to fashion workers for the alien Anunnaki gods; her city walls of Kish)

^46-48The mother of the gods, Ninhursaja (Ninhursag),

had the mighty (?) (altar) light of the lord live with her in Kec (Kish);

(Enlil seated, below Ninurta leads mixed-breed king & workers to alien ziggurat construction site)

she had Cul-pa-eda (Ninurta), no less, help her with the construction work (altar).

(Anu‘s, Inanna‘s, Ninsun‘s, etc. residence in Uruk)

^49-51The shrine E-ana (Anu‘s temple – residence in Uruk)

was cleaned up by means of the hoe (al) for the lady of E-ana, the good cow (immal) (2 mss. have instead: woman).

The hoe (al) deals with ruin mounds, the hoe (al) deals with weeds.

^52-55In the city of Zabalam (city loyal to Inanna), the hoe (al) is Inanna‘s workman (?).

She determined the destiny of the hoe (al), with its projecting lapis-lazuli beard (1 ms. has instead: tooth).

(Utu, grandson to Enlil, the Space Port Commander in Sippur; launch & landing zones cut into the mountains by Utu)

Utu was ready to help her with her building project (altar);

it is the renowned (?) building project (altar) of youthful Utu.

(Nisaba, spouse to Haia, Ninlil‘s mother, Master Anunnaki Scribe, Goddess of Grains, hoe & plow)

^56-58The lady with broad (dajal) intelligence, Nisaba,

ordered the measuring of the E-ana for a construction project (altar),

and then designed her own E-hamun (in Uruk) for construction (altar).

^59-70The king who measured up the hoe (al) and who passes (zal) his time in its tracks,

(planet Nibiru‘s cross symbol in the sky)

the hero Ninurta, has introduced working with the hoe (altar) into the rebel (bal) lands.

He subdues (aljaja) any city that does not obey its lord.

Towards heaven he roars (algigi) like a storm, earthwards he strikes (aljaja) like a dragon (ucumgal).

Cara (Shara, Inanna‘s son, Roman god Cupid) sat down on (1 ms. has instead: got onto) Enlil‘s knees,

and Enlil gave him what he had desired (al-dug):

he had mentioned the mace, the club, arrows and quiver, and the hoe (al)

(3 mss. have instead: he desired (al-dug) the mace, the club, arrows and quiver).

(Dumuzi The Shepherd, Enki‘s & Ninsun‘s son, young Inanna‘s spouse)

Dumuzid (Dumuzi) is the one who makes the upper land fertile (allumlum).

Gibil (god of the fiery kilns, metal fashioner) made his hoe (al) raise its head towards the heavens —

he (Enki‘s son of metallurgy) caused the hoe (al), sacred indeed, to be refined with fire.

The Anuna (Anunnaki) were rejoicing (alhulhuledec).

^71-82The temple of Jectin-ana (Geshtinanna, Enki‘s daughter) resembled an aljarsur instrument,

the aljarsur of mother Jectin-ana (goddess of songs) that makes a pleasant sound.

(Enlil Haia Nisaba Ninlil unidentified)

The lord [Enlil] bellowed at his hoe (al) like a bull.

As for the grave (irigal): the hoe (al) buries people,

but dead people are also brought up from the ground by the hoe (al)

[This may allude to Enkidu‘s ghost being put in contact with Gilgamec.].

With the hoe (al), the hero honored by An (Anu), the younger brother (the grandfather) of Nergal,

(giant Gilgamesh, son to Ninsun & Lugalbanda, 2/3rds divine, 5th king of Uruk)

the warrior Gilgamec is as powerful as a hunting net.

(Ninsun, daughter to Ninurta & Bau, mother to gods & many earthling mixed-breeds made kings)

The (1 ms. adds: sage) son of Ninsumun (Ninsun) is pre-eminent with oars (jisal)

[This may allude to Gilgamec rowing across the waters of death.].

With the hoe (al) he is the great barber (kindajal) of the watercourses.

In the chamber (1 ms. has instead: place) of the shrine, with the hoe (al) he is the minister (sukkal).

The wicked (huljal) …… are sons of the hoe (al); they are born in sleep from heaven.

^83-93In the sky there is the altirigu bird, the bird of the god.

On the earth there is the hoe (al): a dog in the reed-beds, a dragon (ucumgal) in the forest.

(Ninurta‘s 50-headed mace, alien Anunnaki advanced technologies of weaponry)

On the battlefield, there is the dur-allub battle-axe.

By the city wall there is the battle-net (alluhab).

On the dining-table there is the bowl (maltum).

In the wagon shed, there is the sledge (mayaltum).

In the donkey stable there is the cupboard (argibil).

The hoe (al)! — the sound of the word is sweet: it also occurs (munjal)

on the hillsides: the tree of the hillsides is the allanum oak.

The fragrance of the hillsides is the arganum balm.

The precious stone of the hillsides is the algamec steatite.

^94-106The hoe (al) makes everything prosper, the hoe makes everything flourish.

The hoe (al) is good barley, the hoe (al) is a hunting net (1 ms. has instead: an overseer).

The hoe (al) is brick molds, the hoe (al) has made people exist (jal).

It is the hoe (al) that is the strength of young manhood.

The hoe (al) and the basket are the tools for building cities.

It builds (aldue) the right kind of house, it cultivates (aljaja) the right kind of fields.

It is you, hoe, that extend (dajal) the good agricultural land!

The hoe (al) subdues for its owner (lugal) any agricultural lands

that have been recalcitrant (bal) against their owner (lugal),

any agricultural lands that have not submitted to their owner (lugal).

It chops the heads off the vile esparto grasses, yanks them out at their roots, and tears at their stalks.

The hoe (al) also subdues (aljaja) the hirin weeds.

^107-109The hoe (al), the implement whose destiny was fixed by father Enlil—the renowned hoe (al)!

(Nisaba 2 gods unidentified spouse Haia daughter Ninlil)

Nisaba (Ninlil‘s mother, Haia‘s spouse, Enlil‘s mother-in-law) be praised!

The Debate Between the Hoe and the Plow: translation

(gods in blue)

^1-6O the Hoe, the Hoe, the Hoe, tied together with thongs;

the Hoe, made from poplar, with a tooth of ash;

the Hoe, made from tamarisk, with a tooth of sea-thorn; the Hoe, double-toothed, four-toothed;

the Hoe, child of the poor, …… bereft even of a loin-cloth (?) — the Hoe started a quarrel …… with the Plow.

(when the alien Anunnaki gods did the work on Earth Colony)

^7-19The Hoe having engaged in a dispute with the Plow, the Hoe addressed the Plow:

“Plow, you draw furrows –what does your furrowing matter to me?

You break clods — what does your clod-breaking matter to me?

When water overflows you cannot dam it up.

(Nisaba, Enlil‘s mother-in-law, Goddess of Grain)

You cannot fill baskets with earth.

You cannot spread out clay to make bricks.

You cannot lay foundations or build a house.

You cannot strengthen an old wall’s base.

You cannot put a roof on a good man’s house.

Plow, you cannot straighten the town squares.

(in the beginning, giant alien gods from Nibiru had to do the work of men during early settlement period)

Plow, you draw furrows — what does your furrowing matter to me?

You make clods — what does your clod-making matter to me?”

^20-33The Plow addressed the Hoe: “I am the Plow, fashioned by great strength,

(Enlil finally hands the plow over to earthlings to endure their workloads forced upon modern man, farming, sheep-herding, etc.)

assembled by great hands, the mighty registrar of father Enlil.

I am mankind’s faithful farmer.

To perform my festival in the fields in the harvest month,

the king slaughters cattle and sacrifices sheep, and he pours beer into a bowl.

The king offers the …… libation.

The ub and ala drums resound.

(1 ms. adds 1 line:1 line fragmentary)

(alien giants taught mankind to farm for the gods)

The king takes hold of my handles, and harnesses my oxen to the yoke.

All the great high-ranking persons walk at my side.

All the lands gaze at me in great admiration.

The people watch me in joy.

(earthlings take on the burdensome yoke of hard labor, working for the alien giant gods)

^34-40“The furrow tilled by me adorns the plain.

Before the stalks erected by me in the fields, the teeming herds of Cakkan kneel down.

In performing my labor amid the ripened barley, (1 ms. adds 2 lines: I vie with the mighty scythe (?).

After the reaped …… and the grain have been gathered,) the shepherd’s churn is improved.

(Inanna spouse Dumuzi “The Shepherd”, later taught Abel to tend sheep for the alien gods)

With my sheaves spread over the meadows the sheep of Dumuzid (Dumuzi) are improved.

^41-51“My threshing-floors punctuating the plain are yellow hillocks radiating beauty.

I pile up stacks and mounds for Enlil.

I amass emmer and wheat for him.

I fill the storehouses of mankind with barley.

The orphans, the widows and the destitute take their reed baskets and glean my scattered ears.

People come to drag away my straw, piled up in the fields.

The teeming herds of Cakkan thrive.

^52-56“Hoe, digging miserably, weeding miserably with your teeth; Hoe, burrowing in the mud;

Hoe, putting its head in the mud of the fields, spending your days with the brick-molds in mud

with nobody cleaning you, digging wells, digging ditches, digging ……!

^57-62“Wood of the poor man’s hand, not fit for the hands of high-ranking persons,

the hand of a man’s slave is the only adornment of your head.

You deliver deep insults to me.

You compare yourself to me.

When I go out to the plain, everyone looks on but (2 mss. add 1 line: the Hoe does not …… the Plow, and)

insultingly you call me “Plow, the digger of furrows”.”

^63-66Then the Hoe addressed the Plow:

“Plow, what does my being small matter to me, what does my being exalted matter to me,

what does my being powerful matter to me? — at Enlil‘s place I take precedence over you,

(E-kur, Enlil’s residence in Nippur)

in Enlil‘s temple (residence & Anunnaki Command Central) I stand ahead of you.

^67-75“I build embankments, I dig ditches.

I fill all the meadows with water.

When I make water pour into all the reed-beds, my small baskets carry it away.

When a canal is cut, or when a ditch is cut, when water rushes out at the swelling of a mighty river,

creating lagoons on all sides (?), I, the Hoe, dam it in.

Neither south nor north wind can separate it.

^76-79“The fowler gathers eggs.

The fisherman catches fish.

People empty bird-traps.

Thus the abundance I create spreads over all the lands.

^80-90“After the water has been diverted from the meadows

and the work on the wet areas is taken in hand,

Plow, I come down to the fields before you.

I initiate the opening up of the field for you.

I clear the recesses of the embankment for you.

I remove the weeds in the field for you.

I heap up the stumps and the roots in the field for you.

But when you work the field, there is a procession (?):

your oxen are six, your people four — you yourself are the eleventh …….

…… the preparatory work in the field.

And you want to compare yourself with me?

^91-103“When you come out to the field after me, your single furrow brings you pleasure.

When you put your head to work and get entangled in roots and thorns, your tooth breaks.

Once your tooth is fixed, you cannot hold onto your tooth.

Your farmer calls you “This Plow is done for”.

Carpenters have to be hired again for you, people …… for you.

A whole workshop of artisans surrounds you.

The fullers depilate a …… fleece for you.

They stretch it over the wringer for you.

They toil at the straps for you — then they place the foul hide on your head.

^104-108“Your work is slight but your behavior is grand.

My time of duty is twelve months, but your effective time is four months

and your time of absence is eight months — you are gone for twice as long as you are present.

^109-116“Upon your boat (?) you make a hut.

When you are put on board and your “hands” rip out the beams,

your “face” has to be pulled from the water like a wine-jar.

After I have made a pile of logs (?) my smoke dries you out in the house.

What happens to your seeding-funnel if it once falls?

Anyone who drops you smashes it, making it a completely destroyed tool.

^117-121“I am the Hoe and I live in the city.

No one is more honored than I am.

I am a servant following his master.

I am one who builds a house for his master.

I am one who broadens the cattle-stalls, who expands the sheepfolds.

^122-126“I spread out clay and make bricks.

I lay foundations and build a house.

I strengthen an old wall’s base.

I put a roof on a good man’s house.

I am the Hoe, I straighten the town-squares.

^127-131“When I have gone through the city and built its sturdy walls,

have made the temples of the great gods splendid

and embellished them with brown, yellow and decorative (?) clay,

(mud brick-built mountains / residences of the giant alien gods)

I build in the city of the palace where the inspectors and overseers live.

^132-138“When the weakened clay has been built up and the fragile (?) clay buttressed,

they refresh themselves when the time is cool in houses I have built.

When they rest on their sides by a fire which a hoe has stirred up,

you do not come to the joyous celebration (?).

They feed the laborer, give him drink and pay him his wages:

thus I have enabled him to support his wife and children.

^139-141“I make a kiln for the boatman and heat pitch for him.

By fashioning magur and magilum boats for him, I enable the boatman to support his wife and children.

^142-150“I plant a garden for the householder.

When the garden has been encircled, surrounded by mud walls

and the agreements reached, people again take up a hoe.

When a well has been dug, a water lift constructed and a water-hoist hung, I straighten the plots.

I am the one who puts water in the plots.

After I have made the apple-tree grow, it is I who bring forth its fruits.

These fruits adorn the temples of the great gods:

thus I enable the gardener to support his wife and children.

^151-158“After I have worked on the watercourse and the sluices, put the path in order

and built a tower there on its banks, those who spend the day in the fields,

and the field-workers who match them by night, go up into that tower.

These people revive themselves there just as in their well-built city.

The water-skins I made they use to pour water.

I put life into their hearts again.

^159-162“Insultingly you call me “Plow, the digger of ditches”.

But when I have dug out the fresh water for the plain and dry land where no water is,

those who have thirst refresh themselves at my well-head.

^163-173“What then does one person say to another?

What does one tell another in detail?:

“The shepherd adorns the plain with his ewes and lambs.

After the heavens had been turned upside down, after bitter lament had been imposed on Sumer,

after, as houses were overwhelmed by the rivers and Enlil frowned in anger upon the land,

(Enlil, son & heir to King Anu, leader of the Anunnaki giants in Heaven & on Earth)

Enlil had flooded the harvest, after Enlil had acted mightily thus,

Enlil did not abandon us — the single-toothed Hoe was struck against the dry earth.

^174-178A ”For us you raise winter like the harvest-time.

We take away the hand of summer and winter.

Hoe, the binder, ties the sheaves.

Binding bird-traps, it ties the reed-baskets.

The solitary laborer and the destitute are supported. (2 mss. add 1 line: They glean the scattered ears.)“

^179-185Then the Storm spoke: “The mortar lies still while the pestle pounds.

People fight with grinding stones.

The sieve disputes with the strainer.

What have you done to the one who is angry?

Why are you scornful of Ezina (grain goddess Nisaba or daughter Ninlil)?

Why do you swap names (?) over the ripened grain

(1 ms. has instead: Why, Plow, is the ripened grain in your seeding-funnel)?”

^186-193 Enlil addressed the Hoe: “Hoe, do not start getting so mightily angry!

Do not be so mightily scornful! Is not Nisaba the Hoe’s inspector?

(Enlil, parent in-laws Haia & Nisaba, spouse Ninlil, unidentified)

Is not Nisaba its overseer?

The scribe will register your work, he will register your work.

Hoe, whether he enters five or ten gij in your account,

Hoe — or, Hoe, whether he enters one-third or one-half mana in your account,

Hoe, like a maid-servant, always ready, you will fulfill your task.”

^194-196The Hoe having engaged in a dispute with the Plow,

the Hoe triumphed over the Plow — praise be to Nisaba!

The Cursing of Agade (Akkad)

The Electronic Text Corpus of Sumerian Literature

Agade / Akkad, ancient land of alien giants)

(Texts: All Artifacts, Color Coding, & Writings in Bold Type With Italics Inside Parenthesis, are Added by Editor R. Brown, not the Authors, Translators, or Publishers!)

(gods in blue …mixed-breed demigods in teal…)

(Enki’s creation = Enkidu, Enlil’s creation = Hawawa)

(Bull of Heaven killed)

After Enlil‘s frown had slain Kic (Kish) as if it were the Bull of Heaven,

had slaughtered the house of the land of Unug (Uruk) in the dust as if it were a mighty bull,

and then Enlil had given the ruler ship and kingship from the south as far as the highlands to Sargon, king of Agade —

(Inanna with alien technologies, goddess-spouse to mixed-breed made king, Sargon)

at that time, holy Inanna established the sanctuary of Agade

as her celebrated woman’s domain; she set up her throne in Ulmac.

(Inanna seated upon her throne)

Like a young man building a house for the first time, like a girl establishing a woman’s domain,

holy Inanna did not sleep as she ensured that the warehouses would be provisioned;

that dwellings would be founded in the city; that its people would eat splendid food;

that its people would drink splendid beverages; that those bathed for holidays would rejoice in the courtyards;

that the people would throng the places of celebration; that acquaintances would dine together;

that foreigners would cruise about like unusual birds in the sky;

that even Marhaci would be re-entered on the tribute rolls;

that monkeys, mighty elephants, water buffalo, exotic animals, as well as thoroughbred dogs, lions,

mountain ibexes (some mss. have instead: mountain beasts (?)) (some mss. have instead: horses),

and alum sheep with long wool would jostle each other in the public squares.

She then filled Agade‘s stores for emmer wheat with gold, she filled its stores for white emmer wheat with silver;

she delivered copper, tin, and blocks of lapis lazuli to its granaries and sealed its silos from outside.

She endowed its old women with the gift of giving counsel, she endowed its old men with the gift of eloquence.

She endowed its young women with the gift of entertaining,

she endowed its young men with martial might, she endowed its little ones with joy.

The nursemaids who cared for (some mss. have instead: of) the general’s children played the aljarsur instruments.

(music begins in Sumer)

Inside the city tigi drums sounded; outside it, flutes and zamzam instruments.

Its harbor where ships moored was full of joy.

All foreign lands rested contentedly, and their people experienced happiness.

(Narram-Suen, giant mixed-breed made king, grandson to Sargon the Great)

Its king, the shepherd (King) Naram- Suen, rose as the daylight on the holy throne of Agade.

(giant mixed-breed King Narram-Sin with alien technologies – landed shem / command module of an alien sky-ship)

Its city wall , like a mountain, (1 ms. has instead: , a great mountain,) reached the heavens.

It was like the Tigris going to (some mss. have instead: flowing into) the sea

(1st cities on Earth, giant alien gods established in ancient Sumer)

as holy Inanna opened the portals of its city-gates and made Sumer bring its own possessions upstream by boats.

(Martu & the Martu uncivilized earthlings) (far less advanced people living in mountains, “ape-like primitives”, named & controlled by Anu‘s son Martu)

The highland Martu people ignorant of agriculture, brought spirited cattle and kids for her.

The Meluhans, the people of the black land, brought exotic wares

(some mss. have instead: wares of foreign countries) up to her.

Elam and Subir loaded themselves with goods for her as if they were packasses.

All the governors, the temple administrators (1 ms. has instead: generals),

and the accountants of the Gu-edina regularly supplied the monthly and New Year offerings.

What a weariness all these caused at Agade‘s city gates!

Holy Inanna could hardly receive all these offerings.

As if she were a citizen there, she could not restrain (?) the desire (?) to prepare the ground for a temple.

But the statement coming from the E-kur (Enlil‘s ziggurat temple / residence in Nippur) was disquieting.

Because of Enlil (?) all Agade was reduced (?) to trembling, and terror befell Inanna in Ulmac.

She left the city, returning to her home.

Holy Inanna abandoned the sanctuary of Agade like someone abandoning the young women of her woman’s domain.

(Inanna, Goddess of War with high-tech alien weaponry used against non-loyal earthlings)

Like a warrior hurrying to arms, she removed (some mss. have instead: tore away) the gift of battle

and fight from the city and handed them over to the enemy.

(Ninurta seated, Enlil‘s heir & warrior son)

Not even five or ten days had passed and Ninurta brought the jewels of ruler ship,

the royal crown, the emblem and the royal throne bestowed on Agade, back into his E-cumeca.

(Utu, grandson to Enlil, son to Nannar, twin to Inanna)

Utu took away the eloquence of the city. Enki took away its wisdom.

(Anu, King & god the father in Heaven, his sons established Earth Colony)

An took up (some mss. have instead: out) (1 ms. has instead: away)

into the midst of heaven its fearsomeness that reaches heaven.

(Inanna, twin to Utu, Goddess of Love & War)

Enki tore out its well-anchored holy mooring pole from the abzu.

Inanna took away its weapons.

The life of Agade‘s sanctuary was brought to an end

as if it had been only the life of a tiny carp in the deep waters, and all the cities were watching it.

Like a mighty elephant, it bent its neck to the ground while they all raised their horns like mighty bulls.

Like a dying dragon, it dragged its head on the earth and they jointly deprived it of honor as in a battle.

(giant mixed-breed King of Akkad, Narram-Suen, descendant offspring of the gods)

(King) Naram- Suen saw in a nocturnal vision

that Enlil would not let the kingdom of Agade-occupy a pleasant, lasting residence,

that he would make its future altogether unfavorable,

that he would make its temples shake and would scatter its treasures (1 ms. has instead: destroy its treasuries).

He realized what the dream was about, but did not put into words, and did not discuss it with anyone.

(1 ms. adds 2 lines: …… temples shake ……, …… perform (?) extispicy regarding (?) his temple …….)

(E-kur, mud brick-built mountain / residence of Enlil & Ninlil in his patron city of Nippur)

Because of the E-kur, he put on mourning clothes,

covered his chariot with a reed mat (1 ms. has instead: pulled out the outside pin of his chariot),

tore the reed canopy off his ceremonial barge (1 ms. has instead: the prow of his ceremonial barge)

(1 ms. has instead: the cabin of his ceremonial barge), and gave away his royal paraphernalia.

(King) Naram- Suen persisted for seven years!

Who has ever seen a king burying his head in his hands for seven years?

(some mss. add the line: He realized what the dream was about,

but did not put it into words, and did not discuss it with anyone.)

Then he went to perform extispicy on a kid regarding the temple,

but the omen had nothing to say about the building of the temple.

For a second time he went to perform extispicy on a kid regarding the temple,

but the omen again had nothing to say about the building of the temple.

In order to change what had been inflicted (?) upon him, he tried to alter Enlil‘s pronouncement

Because his subjects were dispersed, he now began a mobilization of his troops.

Sports - Sumerian wrestling, 3000 + B.C. (gods wrestling; earthlings wrestling, 3,000 B.C.)

Like a wrestler who is about to enter the great courtyard, he …… his hands towards (?) the E-kur.

Like an athlete bent to start a contest, he treated the giguna as if it were worth only thirty shekels.

Like a robber plundering the city, he set tall ladders against the temple.

To demolish E-kur as if it were a huge ship, to break up its soil

like the soil of mountains where precious metals are mined,

to splinter it like the lapis lazuli mountain, to prostrate it, like a city inundated by Ickur (Ishkur / Adad).

Though the (mud brick-built) temple was not a mountain where cedars are felled,

he had large axes cast, he had double-edged agasilig axes sharpened to be used against it.

He set spades against its roots and it sank as low as the foundation of the Land.

He put axes against its top, and the temple, like a dead soldier, bowed its neck before him,

and all the foreign lands bowed their necks before him.

He ripped out its drain pipes, and all the rain went back to the heavens .

He tore off its upper lintel and the Land was deprived of its ornament

(1 ms. has instead: the ornament of the Land disappeared).

From its “Gate from which grain is never diverted”, he diverted grain, and the Land was deprived of grain.

He struck the “Gate of Well-Being” with the pickaxe, and well-being was subverted in all the foreign lands.

As if they were for great tracts of land with wide carp-filled waters,

(E-kur, Enlil‘s temple / residence, image re-creation of Enlil‘s Earth Colony Command Center)

he cast large spades (1 ms. has instead: axes) to be used against the E-kur.

The people could see the bedchamber, its room which knows no daylight.

The Akkadians could look into the holy treasure chest of the gods.

Though they had committed no sacrilege,

its Lahamu deities of the great pilasters standing at the temple were thrown into the fire by Naram- Suen.

The cedar, cypress, juniper and boxwood, the woods of its giguna, were …… by him.

He put its gold in containers and put its silver in leather bags.

He filled the docks with its copper, as if it were a huge transport of grain.

The silversmiths were re-shaping its silver, jewelers were re-shaping its precious stones, smiths were beating its copper.

Large ships were moored at the temple, large ships were moored at Enlil‘s temple

and its possessions were taken away from the city, though they were not the goods of a plundered city.

With the possessions being taken away from the city, good sense left Agade.

As the ships moved away from (some mss. have instead: juddered) the docks,

Agade‘s intelligence (1 ms. has instead: sanctuary) (alien technology) was removed.

(Enlil, determined to maintain total control on Earth Colony)

Enlil, the roaring (?) storm that subjugates the entire land, the rising deluge that cannot be confronted,

was considering what should be destroyed in return for the wrecking of his beloved E-kur.

He lifted his gaze towards the Gubin mountains, and made all the inhabitants of the broad mountain ranges descend (?).

Enlil brought out of the mountains those who do not resemble other people (ape-like),

who are not reckoned as part of the Land, the Gutians (under Martu), an unbridled people,

with human intelligence but canine instincts (some mss. have instead: feelings) and monkeys’ features.

Like small birds they swooped on the ground in great flocks.

Because of Enlil, they stretched their arms out across the plain like a net for animals.

Nothing escaped their clutches, no one left their grasp.

Messengers no longer traveled the highways, the courier’s boat no longer passed along the rivers.

The Gutians drove the trusty (?) goats of Enlil out of their folds and compelled their herdsmen to follow them,

they drove the cows out of their pens and compelled their cowherds to follow them.

Prisoners manned the watch. Brigands occupied (1 ms. has instead: attacked) the highways.

The doors of the city gates of the Land lay dislodged in (1 ms. has instead: were covered with) mud,

and all the foreign lands uttered bitter cries from the walls of their cities.

They established gardens for themselves (1 ms. has instead: made gardens grow) within the cities,

and not as usual on the wide plain outside.

As if it had been before the time when cities were built and founded,

the large (some mss. add: fields and) arable tracts yielded no grain,

the inundated (some mss. add: fields and) tracts yielded no fish, the irrigated orchards yielded no syrup or wine,

the thick clouds (?) did not rain, the macgurum plant did not grow.

In those days, oil for one shekel was only half a liter,

grain for one shekel was only half a liter, wool for one shekel was only one mina,

fish for one shekel filled only one ban measure — these sold at such prices in the markets of the cities!

Those who lay down on the roof, died on the roof; those who lay down in the house were not buried.

People were flailing at themselves from hunger.

(all mud brick-built by the giants)

By the Ki-ur, Enlil‘s great place, dogs were packed together in the silent streets;

if two men walked there they would be devoured by them,

and if three men walked there they would be devoured by them.

Noses were punched (?), heads were smashed (?), noses (?) were piled up, heads were sown like seeds.

Honest people were confounded with traitors, heroes lay dead on top of heroes,

the blood of traitors ran upon the blood of honest men.

At that time, Enlil rebuilt his great sanctuaries into small reed (?)

sanctuaries and from east to west he reduced their storehouses.

The old women who survived those days, the old men who survived those days

and the chief lamentation singer who survived those years set up seven balaj drums,

as if they stood at the horizon, and together with ub ,meze, and lilis

(some mss. have instead: cem, and lilis) (1 ms. has instead: and bronze cem)

(Enlil & his son Adad)

drums made them resound to Enlil like Ickur (Ishkur / Adad) for seven days and seven nights.

The old women did not restrain the cry “Alas for my city!”.

The old men did not restrain the cry “Alas for its people!”.

The lamentation singer did not restrain the cry “Alas for the E-kur!”.

Its young women did not restrain from tearing their hair.

Its young men did not restrain from sharpening their knives.

Their laments were as if Enlil‘s ancestors were performing a lament

in the awe-inspiring Holy Mound by the holy knees of Enlil.

Because of this, Enlil entered his holy bedchamber and lay down fasting.

(Enlil Inanna Utu Enki Isumud)

At that time, Suen (Sin / Nannar), Enki, Inanna, Ninurta, Ickur, Utu, Nuska, and Nisaba, the great gods

(1 ms. has instead: all the gods whosoever), cooled (1 ms. has instead: sprinkled)

Enlil‘s heart with cool water and prayed to him:

“Enlil, may the city that destroyed your city, be treated as your city has been treated!

May the one that defiled your giguna, be treated as Nibru (Nippur)!

In this city, may heads fill the wells!

May no one find his acquaintances there, may brother not recognize brother!

May its young woman be cruelly killed in her woman’s domain, may its old man cry in distress for his slain wife!

May its pigeons moan on their window ledges, may its small birds be smitten in their nooks,

may it live in constant anxiety like a timid pigeon!”

Again, Suen, Enki, Inanna, Ninurta, Ickur, Utu, Nuska and Nisaba, all the gods whosoever,

turned their attention to the city, and cursed Agade severely:

“City, you pounced on E-kur: it is as if you had pounced on Enlil!

Agade, you pounced on E-kur: it is as if you had pounced on Enlil!

May your holy walls, to their highest point, resound with mourning!

May your giguna be reduced to a pile of dust!

May your pilasters with the standing Lahamu (Mars) deities (Igigi)

fall to the ground like tall young men drunk on wine!

May your clay be returned to its abzu, may it be clay cursed by Enki!

May your grain be returned to its furrow, may it be grain cursed by Ezinu (Ninlil)!

May your timber be returned to its forest, may it be timber cursed by Ninilduma (gods master carpenter)!

(Ninurta, unidentified, & Apkulla, eagle-headed with wings – pilots)

May the (1 ms. has instead: your) cattle slaughterer slaughter his wife,

may your (some mss. have instead: the) sheep butcher butcher his child!

May water wash away your pauper as he is looking for ……!

May your prostitute hang herself at the entrance to her brothel!

May your pregnant (?) hierodules and cult prostitutes abort (?) their children!

May your gold be bought for the price of silver, may your silver be bought for the price of pyrite (?),

and may your copper be bought for the price of lead!”

“Agade, may your strong man be deprived of his strength,

so that he will be unable to lift his sack of provisions and ……,

and will not have the joy of controlling your superior asses; may he lie idle all day!

May this make the city die of hunger!

May your citizens, who used to eat fine food, lie hungry in the grass and herbs,

may your …… man eat the coating on his roof, may he chew (?) the leather hinges on the main door of his father’s house!

May depression descend upon your palace, built for joy (1 ms. has instead: joyous palace)!

May the evils of the desert, the silent place, howl continuously!”

“May foxes that frequent ruin mounds brush with their tails your fattening-pens (?), established for purification ceremonies!

May the ukuku, the bird of depression, make its nest in your gateways, established for the Land!

In your city that could not sleep because of the tigi drums, that could not rest from its joy,

(Nannar protects his Cattle Pens in Ur)

may the bulls of Nanna (Nannar / Sin) that fill the pens bellow like those who wander in the desert, the silent place!

May the grass grow long on your canal-bank tow-paths,

may the grass of mourning grow on your highways laid for wagons!

Moreover, may …… wild rams (?) and alert snakes of the mountains

allow no one to pass on your tow-paths built up with canal sediment!

In your plains where fine grass grows, may the reed of lamentation grow!

Agade, may brackish water flow (1 ms. has instead:

May brackish water flow in the river), where fresh water flowed for you!

If someone decides, “I will dwell in this city!”, may he not enjoy the pleasures of a dwelling place!

If someone decides, “I will rest in Agade!”, may he not enjoy the pleasures of a resting place!”

(Utu, son to Nannar, Commander of the Space Ports)

And before Utu (Shamash) on that very day, so it was!

On its canal bank tow-paths, the grass grew long.

On its highways laid for wagons, the grass of mourning grew.

Moreover, on its tow-paths built up with canal sediment,

…… wild rams (?) and alert snakes of the mountains allowed no one to pass.

On its plains, where fine grass grew, now the reeds of lamentation grew.

Agade‘s flowing fresh water flowed as brackish water.

When someone decided, “I will dwell in that city!”, he could not enjoy the pleasures of a dwelling place.

When someone decided, “I will rest in Agade!”, he could not enjoy the pleasures of a resting place

(Inanna with advanced alien technologies)

Inana be praised for the destruction of Agade!

The Evening Star (Venus / Inanna) appeared gloriously in the skies, and soon the navy velvet of the night was going to fall. It was then that Etana spotted in the horizon the last Gate of his Ascent Journey this time, the Gate of Ishtar. Heart pounding with anticipation, he braced himself for the eagle’s landing. In front of him, the elegant lapis lazuli walls carved with golden lions and rosettes were a sight to behold. In Babylon, the Gate of the Gods,

(private entrance Gate of Ishtar / Inanna into Babylon, Marduk‘s patron city)

it was the Gate of Ishtar that led the processional way to the holy precinct of the Great Gods. So it was in the Everlasting Babylon of the Soul.

3b - Etana, king of Kish, flies to Nibiru

(Etana carried in flight to heaven / planet Nibiru, by eagles / alien pilots)

“I thank you for the ride, my friend’, he said to the eagle (pilot)

patting the neck of his feathered friend as he got off his back.

‘I have an important request: would you be so kind to wait for me here?

I feel I need to go through these gates on my own.’

‘Even if I wanted, friend and king, my entrance would be barred… ‘,

whispered the eagle, and if Etana were not so anxious to proceed,

he would most certainly have stopped to ask what his friend meant by that cryptic statement.

(Kish tale of King Etana lifting off Earth by eagle for planet Nibiru)

The king of Kish took a deep breath to center himself and stepped through the Gate,

and the familiar clouds involved him to lead him to the Inner Realms.

He allowed himself a couple of minutes to adjust and then proceeded forwards.

Soon the clouds dissipated and he saw himself in a large well-lit room

whose glassed windows (5,000 years ago!) let in the magic of sunset hour, the rainbow colors of the changing skies.

The room was long, a hall fit for kings, and upon a dais he saw Her (Inanna).

His heart knew who She was, and so he proceeded.

(Inanna & grandfather Lord Air Enlil; Commander Enlil, King Anu, & Enki above in alien sky-disc)

How long had it been since She, the Great Goddess of Love and War (Inanna),

and Enlil, Lord Air and the most important of the younger generation of the Anunnaki gods,

had come to earth, in search of a king to rule the land?

He, Etana, had been their choice.

Now, after all these years, Etana wondered whether

They had made the right choice.

And this realization was killing him deep inside.

No matter what, he proceeded to kneel and bow to the ground respectfully in front of Her.

(fair-haired Inanna served by early “modern man”, fashioned from their image & likeness)

His eyes dared to face Her (Inanna) adoringly.

(highlighted long hair of Inanna, desired by all, gods & mixed-breeds)

Youthful, tall, long dark hair that showed glints of gold in the sunset hour,

She wore a fringed dress of a soft color and fabric he would not be able to name.

(Inanna, Goddess of Love & War)

The garment was a bit lower than knee length, golden leather sandals and a crown of flowers was upon her forehead.

As long ago, She had come to him as the Divine Huntress, the Warrior, the spirit of love and adventure.

(giant alien Anunnaki goddesses stand before Inanna seated over her battle lions; lion under Inanna‘s dais, her zodiac sign Leo)

Lions slept under the dais of Her throne.

They looked like contented cats and not ferocious beasts.

He remembered Her so well, and She had not changed at all.

‘Lady of my Heart, Champion of my soul, I lend you graces’, he greeted, ignoring the lions and concentrating on Her.

‘It has been a long time, King of Kish‘, She replied.

He breathed hard.

‘Perhaps too long… now I know this for sure’.

(giant goddesses Ninsun & Inanna with much smaller lions at her feet, & alien technology in hand)

She rose to her feet, the lions did not stir, and to his utter amazement,

She moved towards the large window on the Western Quarter and sat graciously on the window sill,

(Inanna in the window, original to later epics of the “woman in the window”, “woman in wait”, etc.)

Her back to the twilit skies.

She made space for him to take a seat by Her side, but he declined and sat on the floor.

Etana swallowed hard and started in one go, choosing carefully his words to address Her in the first place:

‘So much has happened so far, Great Lady, and I sincerely am not quite sure,

but somehow I feel I have reached a turning point which is recharging me and eventually will bring me success.

As if I were finally sort of discerning the light at the end of the tunnel, although it is just a hope.

It is associated with a turning of darkness back towards the direction of the light, the winter solstice,

the shortest day of the year, the day when darkness begins to decrease and the hours of daylight increase.

It is the beginning of a turn-around; a time of letting go of the old and making way for the new;

a time of new beginnings, and it starts with rest.’

(young giant Inanna / Ishtar, Goddess of Love & War with lion, & king)

‘Nice rhetorics, but wouldn’t you like to go straight to the point?’, asked the Goddess, direct and frank as usual.

‘It has been a long and difficult journey for you since we last met.

And I can give you some clues for what has happened to you so far.

Would you like that?’

Etana sighed, but appreciated Her way of dealing with his awkwardness:

‘I need to clarify many, many things with you, my Lady.

Oh, I know well about being an initiate, your initiate.

It means the never-ending breaking out of old patterns, of everything that needs to be changed

so that a solid foundation can be established for living in all worlds.

This is exactly what happened to me so far… I just wish I had realized all this before!’

‘Can you elaborate more?’

‘Sure, I can.

I was meditating hard about what has happened to me so far since we first met,

(semi-divine, Inanna, & Enlil, alien gods chose the 1st monarchs of their city-states, their offspring)

when you and lord Enlil chose me to be the first monarch of the land.

I came to some conclusions.

The trials of being a king and shepherd, the first ruler of the land.

No, better still, the trials of deserving my crown and as such becoming the (giant semi-divine mixed-breed)

living link between the people of the land and the gods,

You in special.

The difficulty of understanding and applying the discipline of power and empowerment,

to protect the weak and yet not to lose sight of the greedy and troublemakers

to attempt to get them back into the fold.

This was the meaning of the eagle and the snake, (Myth of Etana) wasn’t it?

A metaphor for me to understand the meaning of power and the exercise of justice

between irreconcilable oppositions within a nation that was being built?’

‘How so?’ She asked, her voice a quiet command.

Image result for us eagle with snake emblems

(Mexican Coat of Arms; United States Great Seal, & on & on.)

‘The eagle and the snake can be seen as the warring factions of the land a monarch should keep close watch upon.

Difficult to unite, for they are different species,

although a truce can be established and maintained by the application of justice.

However, the greedy eagle is the one that poses the hardest trial for the king.

By betraying the snake and killing its offspring it needed more healing and more atonement.

And I meditated a great deal why I had to face all trials with the eagle, the traitor,

instead of lining up with the grieving snake.’

Tears started flowing copiously, but Etana continued relentlessly:

‘I was the snake myself, grieving for the offspring of my blood I so badly wanted to father.

The snake was the animal in me, raw energy and grief.

But I am also the king, responsible for peace, wealth, progress and health.

I could not leave the treacherous eagle to his devices,

I had to rescue him back, heal it and make it ascend with me to finally face you in the end.

Hit and crash approach this one of yours, isn’t it?’

Suddenly he also understood the eagle’s indecision to be accepted by the Goddess’ Gate.

The eagle might not be allowed to proceed through, because it had killed the offspring of his friend!

The goddess smiled: ‘But you never gave up and continued towards the ascent.

(Etana taken aloft by eagle / pilot heading for their planet Nibiru)

Even when you fell off the back of the eagle three times, somehow you kept going.

One unworthy flight after another?’

Her words hurt, but somehow he felt She was clearly teasing him now, and Etana relaxed a bit.

‘I had to.’

‘Why?’

‘Because You trusted me, and even if I had failed, it was my duty to come to you and say so. Personally.’

(Inanna, goddess-spouse to many semi-divine kings, & so dubbed the “Goddess of Love“)

He was about to tell Her how sorry he was for not having been able to give Her an heir of his blood,

when She seemed to change totally the subject.

‘A question for you, my king: what do you live for?’

Somehow he had expected that question all along, but not at this very moment.

The answer though came from the bottom of his mind, body, heart and soul.

‘To transcend. To learn and experience to make things be in all worlds,

even myself for as many times as it takes and REAL FAST with your help!

I live to deny all denials and to affirm all affirmations in a celebration of the sacredness of matter

so that my soul can fly unbound and free in all worlds I dare to fare.

And most of all, I live to experience the Underworld Descent of Existence in this Flesh as a Conscious Pursuit of Passion,

Joy and Magic to finally return in Wisdom and Love to the Source and Shaper of All’.

‘How far have you lived this truth in the last couple of years?’

Surprise and understanding gripped him hard.

How long had he grieved for a kingdom of the future,

while he had to rule the land in present time to the best of his ideas and ideals,

(Inanna, espoused many mixed-breeds appointed to kingships, go-betweens for the gods & earthlings)

how much time he had lost trying to breed his offspring

when he had not been ready to understand what it was to be a real father?

Father of the land, empowerer of the spirit of this people came first, were his duties he had not been able to see.

‘I have another question for you, my king,’

Her voice sounded deep and soft, and in the distance he heard a bell striking.

‘What is my Name?’

His breath caught for a second.

She was asking and giving at the same time the Key to HerSelf, the key he had kept hidden for so long within his very Self.

(Ishtar / Inanna artifact, many times over Inanna with many names, was depicted nude as the Goddess of Love)

‘Inanna, Ishtar, Astarte, many are your names.

But I know You as the Eternal Moment in Me, my Soul Counterpart, Lover and Beloved as One,

the True Vision of Triumphant Joy and Humanity that Overcomes Death and makes You the Greatest of all Goddesses.

You are the answer to all my whys, World Soul I reflect on my own’.

She was smiling now and then Her face changed to reveal the faces of every single person

and being he had loved in his life, past, present and perhaps to come.

The last transformation was totally unexpected, because he saw his own face transfigured by joy,

younger and older images of himself in the most special moments of his life past and perhaps to come.

Then She was Inanna again.

‘You are really so slow sometimes to understand the basics, Beloved King.

Tell me, Etana, all the way when you were trying so hard to reach me and not being able to, how did you feel like?’

Her laughter was like the power of dawn ensouling the land for a brand new day.

Again, he braced himself for what was coming next.

‘I felt like a Fool’.. he blurted.

(semi-divine king, goddess spouse Inanna, & Enki; Inanna holds the hand of semi-divine her mixed-breed spouse-king)

She stretched Her hands to hold his: ‘And do you think you would have come to Me otherwise?”

By command of all of them the Igigi gods

Ordained a festival for the people

No king did they establish, over the teeming peoples,

At that time no headdress had been assembled, nor crown,

Nor yet scepter had been set with lapis.

No throne daises whatsoever had been constructed,

Against the inhabited world (black-headed earthlings) they barred the gates…

The Igigi gods surrounded the city with ramparts

Ishtar (Inanna) came down from heaven to seek a shepherd,

And sought for a king everywhere.

Innina (Inanna) came down from heaven to seek a shepherd,

And sought for a king everywhere.

[ ] shrine for Adad (Enlil‘s 3^rd son), the god [ ],

In the shade of that shrine a poplar was growing [ ],

In its crown an eagle settled,

A serpent settled at its root.

Daily they watched the wind beasts.

The eagle made ready to speak, saying to the serpent,

(Coat of Arms for Mexico, many govt. seals of eagle with serpent in mouth exist),

“Come, let us make friendship,

Let us be comrades, you and I”.

The serpent made ready to speak, saying to the eagle,

“If indeed…. of friendship and [ ]

(earthling kings swearing oath to giant alien god Shamash / Utu, Inanna‘s twin brother the Sun God)

Then let us swear a mighty oath of Shamash (Utu).

An abomination of the gods [ ]

” Come then, let us set forth and go up the high mountain to hunt.

“Let us swear an oath by the netherworld“.

Before Shamash the warrior they swore the oath,

“Whoever transgresses the limits of Shamash

” May Shamash deliver him as an offender into the hands of the executioner,

(Utu / Shamash, son to Nannar & Ningal, twin to Inanna; Utu & smaller semi-divine descendant-king)

” Whoever transgresses the limits of Shamash,

” May the mountains remove their praises far away from him,

(ancient rockets, missiles, & areal vehicles, technologies possessed by the alien gods on Earth)

” May the oncoming weapon (projectile in flight) make straight for him,

” May the trap and curse of Shamash overthrow him and hunt him down!”

After they had sworn the oath by the netherworld,

They set forth, going up the high mountains,

Each day by turns watching for the wild beasts,

(Ninurta battles unwanted beasts)

The eagle would hunt down wild oxen and gazelle (large prey for an eagle),

The serpent would eat, turn away, then his children would eat.

The eagle would hunt down wild sheep and aurochs,

The serpent would eat, turn away, then his children would eat.

The serpent would hunt down beasts of the field, the creatures of earth,

The eagle would eat, turn away, then his children would eat the food,

The eagle´s children grew big and flourished.

After the eagle´s children were grown big and were flourishing,

The eagle´s heart indeed plotted evil,

Evil his heart plotted indeed!

He set his thoughts upon eating his friend´s young!

The eagle made ready to speak, saying to its children:

” I will eat the serpent´s children, the serpent [ ],

(winged eagles – pilots in heaven)

” I will go up and dwell in heaven (home planet Nibiru),

” If I descend from the crown of the tree, … the king.”

The littlest fledgling, exceedingly wise, said these words to the eagle, his father:

” Do not eat, my father!

The net of Shamash will hunt you down,

The mesh and oat of Shamash will overthrow you and hunt you down.

Whoever transgresses the limits of Shamash,

(alien giants Utu & twin sister Inanna, Goddess of Love & War, with alien technologies, & earthling under foot, an earthling led by nose ring)

Shamash will deliver him as an offender into the hands of the executioner!”

He did not heed them, nor listen to his sons´ words,

He descended and ate up the serpents´ children,

In the evening of the same day,

The serpent came, bearing his burden,

At the entrance to his nest he cast down the meat,

He looked around, his nest was gone”

He looked down, his children were not [ ]!

The eagle had gouged the ground with his talon,

(Ninurta‘s storm bird – his weaponized sky-disc)

The cloud of dust from the sky darkened the sky.

The serpent…. weeping before Shamash,

Before Shamash the warrior his tears ran down,

” I trusted in you, O warrior Shamash,

” I was the one who gave provisions to the eagle,

” Now my nest [ ]!

” My nest is gone, while his nest is safe,

” My young are destroyed, while his young are safe,

” He descended and ate up my children!

” You know, O Shamash, the evil he has done to me,

” Truly, O Shamash your net is the wide earth,

” Your trap is the distant heaven,

(giant god Ninurta & earthlings held captive by his alien net weaponry)

” The eagle must not escape from your net,

(Ninurta vrs. Anzu, leader of Igigi trucker-astronauts based in the heavens)

” That malignant Anzu who harbored evil against his friends!”

When he had heard the serpent´s lament,

Shamash made ready to speak, and said to him:

” Go your way and cross the mountain,

” I have captured for you a wild ox.

” Open its insides, rend its belly,

” Set an ambush in its belly,

” Every kind of bird of heaven will come down to eat the meat.

” The eagle will come down with them to eat the meat,

” As he will not know the evil in store for him,

” He will search for the juiciest meat [ ], he will walk about outside,

” He will work his way into the covering of the intestines,

” When he comes inside, seize him by his wings,

(Ninurta fires at Anzu the Anunnaki rebeller. & a winged sky-disc)

” Cut off his wings, his pinions and tail feathers,

” Pluck him and cast him into a bottomless pit,

” Let him die there of hunger and thirst”.

(Utu, Space Port Commander for the alien Anunnaki gods)

As Shamash the warrior commanded,

The serpent went and crossed the mountain.

Then did the serpent reach the wild ox,

He opened its insides, he rent its belly.

He set an ambush in its belly.

Every kind of bird of heaven came down to eat the meat.

Did the eagle know of the evil in store for him?

He would not eat the meat with the other birds!

The eagle made ready to speak, saying to his children:

” Come, let us go down and we too eat the meat of the wild ox”.

The little fledgling, exceedingly wise, said these words to the eagle, his father:

” Do not go down, father, no doubt the serpent is lurking inside the wild ox”.

The eagle said to himself,

“Are the birds afraid? How is it they eat the meat in peace?”

He did not listen to them, he did not listen to his sons´ words,

He descended and perched on the wild ox.

The eagle looked at the meat, searching in front and behind it.

A second time he looked at the meat, searching in front and behind it,

He walked around outside, he worked his way into the covering of the intestines,

When he came inside, the serpent seized him by his wings,

” You intruded… you intruded…!

The eagle made ready to speak, saying to the serpent:

” Have mercy on me!

I will make you such a gift as a king´s ransom!”

The serpent made ready to speak, saying to the eagle:

” If I release you, how shall I answer to Shamash o high?

” Your punishment would turn upon me,

” Me, the one to lay punishment upon you!”

(areal battle between royal descendants, heir apparent Ninurta, & the Igigi coup leader Anzu, Bau seated with her guard dog)

He cut off his wings, pinions and tail feathers,

He plucked him and cast him into a pit.

That he should die there of hunger and thirst.

As for him, the eagle,…..[ ]

He kept on beseeching Shamash day after day:

” Am I to die in a pit?

” Who would know how your punishment was imposed upon me?

” Save my life, the eagle!

Let me cause your name to be heard for all time”.

(Utu cuts launch & landing sites into mountains with his alien rock saw technologies)

Shamash made ready to speak and said to the eagle:

” You are wicked and have done a revolting deed,

” You committed an abomination of the gods, a forbidden act.

“Were you not under oath? I will not come near you,

“There, there! A man I will send you will help you”

(Etana ascends to Nibiru from Utu‘s spaceport launchpad)

Etana kept on beseeching Shamash day after day.

(bar-b-que sheep, Utu‘s favorite sacrifice received from earthlings)

“O Shamash, you have dined from my fattest sheep!

“O Netherworld, you have drunk of the blood of my sacrificed lambs!

” I have honored the gods and revered the spirits,

” Dream interpreters have used up my incense,

” Gods have used up my lambs in slaughter.

” O Lord, give the command!

” Grant me the plant of birth!

” Reveal to me the plant of birth!

” Relieve me of my burden, grant me an heir!”

Shamash made ready to speak and said to Etana:

” Find a pit, look inside,

” An eagle is cast within it.

” He will reveal to you the plant of birth”.

Etana went his way.

He found the pit, he looked inside

The eagle was cast within it

There he was for him to bring up!

TABLET III

The eagle looked at him….

He said [ ] to Etana,

“You are Etana (Kish King Etana ruled 1,500 years & ascended to Heaven), king of the wild beasts,

You are Etana, [ ] among (?) birds.

Bring me up from this pit

Give me [ ] your hand,

“….. [ ],

I will sing your praises for all time”.

Etana said to the eagle these words:

“If I save your life, [ ]

If I bring you up from the pit,

From that moment we must be ……….”

“From sunrise till [ ]

He filled the front of the pit with [ ]

Next he threw in…. [ ]

He kept throwing in [ ] in front of him,

The eagle…. from the pit

As for him, he flapped his wings,

A first time and a second time… the eagle in the pit,

As for him, he flapped his wings …..

A third time and a fourth time… [the eagle … in? The pit

As for him, he flapped his wings

A fifth and a sixth time….

(from another version):

He took him by the hand in his seventh month in the pit,

In the eighth month he brought him over the edge of his pit,

The eagle took food like a ravening lion,

He gained strength.

The eagle made ready to speak and said to Etana,

“My friend! Let us be friends, you and I!

Ask of me whatever you desire and I shall give it to you “.

Etana made ready to speak and said to the eagle:

“My eyes….. open up what is hidden.

TABLET IV

The eagle (pilot) made ready to speak, saying to Etana:

“My friend… that god….

(Enki, Anu in his sky-disc, Enlil, Apkulla / pilots on each end)

“We passed through the gates of Anu, Enlil and Ea (Enki),

Shamash (Utu), Adad (Ishkur) and Ishtar (Inanna),

We did obeisance together, you and I,

She was imposing… beautiful of feature.

A throne was set out, the ground was trodden down,

(crouching lions under Inanna seated on her throne)

” My friend, the [ ] are obvious,

Come, let me take you up to heaven,

Put your chest against my chest,

Put your hands against my wing feathers,

Put your arms against my sides”.

He put his chest against his chest,

He put his hands against his wing feathers,

He put his arms against his sides,

Great indeed was the burden upon him.

(Etana borne aloft by eagle pilot, similar to Biblical Enoch)

When he borne him aloft one league,

The eagle said to him, to Etana:

“Look, my friend, how the land is now

Examine the sea, look for its boundaries

The land is hills…

The sea has become a stream” (only possible from an areal view!).

(Mesopotamian artifact depicting earthling understanding of an alien pilot, & King of Kish Etana in flight)

When he had bore him aloft a second league,

The eagle said to him, said to Etana,

“Look, my friend, how the land is now!

The land is a hill”.

(one of many Mesopotamian artifacts depicting Kish King Etana lift-offs for Heaven / Nibiru)

When he had bore him aloft a third league,

The eagle (pilot) said to him, said to Etana,

“Look, my friend, how the land is now!”

(the sea is much greater than the land in mass, known only from an areal view)

“The sea has become a gardener´s ditch”.

After they had ascended to the heaven of Anu,

(gates of Anu in heaven on planet Nibiru)

They passed through the gates of Anu, Enlil and Ea,

When he had borne him aloft a second league,

“Look, my friend, how the land is now!”

“The land has become a garden plot [ ],

“And the vast sea has become a trough”.

When he had borne him aloft a third league,

“Look, my friend, how the land is now!”

“I looked but could not see the land!

“Nor were my eyes enough to find the vast sea!

“My friend, I won´t go up to heaven

“Set me down, let me go off to my city”.

“Let some one bring him,”

Likewise Ea, who knows the heaven.

With a mourning garment

Of the South wind? ” Adapa answered Anu:

” My lord, for the house of my lord in the midst of the sea,

I was catching fish. The sea was like a mirror,

The South wind blew, and capsized me.

To the house of my lord was I driven.

In the anger of my heart, I took heed.”

The Tablet of Adapa

Adapa: The First Man

Translated by Stephanie Dalley http://earth-history.com/Sumer/adapa.htm

(Texts: All Artifacts, Color Coding, & Writings in Bold Type With Italics Inside Parenthesis, are Added by Editor R. Brown, not the Authors, Translators, or Publishers!)

(gods in blue …mixed-breed demigods in teal…)

(Adapa / Adam Enki)

He (Enki) made broad understanding perfect in him (Adapa),

To disclose the design of the land.

To him he gave wisdom, but did not give eternal life.

At that time, in those years, he was a sage, son of Eridu.

(DNA modified “modern Man” Enki Isumud Ninhursag)

Enki created him as a protecting spirit among mankind.

A sage – nobody rejects his word –

Clever, extra-wise, he was one of the Anunnaki,

Holy, pure of hands, the pashishu-priest who always tends the rites.

He does baking with the bakers of Eridu,

(giant alien gods served by earthling workers)

He does the food and water of Eridu (Enki’s patron city) every day,

Sets up the offerings table with his pure hands,

Without him no offerings table is cleared away.

He takes the boat out and does the fishing for Eridu.

At that time Adapa, the son of Eridu,

When he had got the leader Enki out of bed,

Used to `feed’ the bolt of Eridu every day.

At the holy Kar-usakar he embarked in a sailing-boat

And without a rudder his boat would drift,

Without a steering-pole he would take his boat out into the broad sea.

South Wind Send him to live in the fishes’ home.

“South Wind, though you send your brothers against me,

However many there are, I shall break your wing!”

No sooner had he uttered these words than South Wind’s wing was broken;

For seven days South Wind did not blow towards the land.

(An / Anu, King of the giant Anunnaki gods from planet Nibiru)

An (Anu) called out to his vizier Ilabrat,

“Why hasn’t the south wind blown towards the land for seven days”

His vizier Ilabrat answered him,

(Enki & baby Adapa / Adam, the new species of workers)

“My lord, Adapa, the son of Enki has broken South Wind’s wing.”

(An / Anu in his winged sky-disc)

When An heard this word,

He cried “Heaven help him!”, rose up from his throne.

“Send for him to be brought here!”

Enki, aware of Heaven‘s ways, touched him

And made him wear his hair unkempt,

Clothed him in mourning garb,

Gave him instructions,

“Adapa, you are to go before king An.

You will go up to Heaven,

And when you go up to Heaven,

When you approach the gate of An,

(gates of heaven / planet Nibiru throne of Anu)

Dumuzi and Gizzida (Ningishzidda) will be standing in the Gate of An,

Will see you, will keep asking you questions,

“Young man, on whose behalf do you wear mourning garb?”

You must answer:

“Two gods have vanished from our country,

And that is why I am behaving like this.

” They will ask:

“Who are the two gods that have vanished (went up to Nibiru to visit Anu as youths) from the countryside?”

(giant mixed-breed King Gudea, Ningishzidda, Dumuzi, seated Enki missing)

You will answer: “They are Dumuzi and Gizzida (Ningishzidda) (Enki‘s 2 youngest sons to meet Enki’s father Anu).”

“They will look at each other and laugh a lot,

Will speak a word in your favor to Anu,

Will present you to An in a good mood.

(King Anu on his planet Nibiru throne Titi / Eve Adapa / Adam)

When you stand before An

They will hold out for you bread of death, so you must not eat.

They will hold out for you water of death, so you must not drink.

They will hold out a garment for you; so put it on.

They will hold out oil for you; so anoint yourself.

You must not neglect the instructions I have given you;

Keep to the words that I have told you.”

The envoy of An arrived.

“Send to me Adapa, Who broke the South Wind’s wing.”

(unidentified earthling, Ninurta, Adapa ascends to Heaven, Utu commander of the spaceport)

He made him take the way of heaven.

When he came up to heaven,

(grandsons Dumuzi & Ningishzidda at the gates of Heaven / Anu on planet Nibiru)

(story of St. Peter at the gates of Heaven were copied from this text & this artifact)

When he approached the Gate of An (Anu), Dumuzi and Gizzida were standing in the Gate of An.

They saw Adapa and cried, “Heaven help him!

Young man, on whose behalf do you look like this Adapa, on whose behalf do you wear mourning clothes?

“Two gods have vanished from the country, and that is why I am wearing mourning clothes.”

“Who are the two gods who have vanished from the country”

(High-Priest & also giant mixed-breed King Gudea, Ningishzidda, & Dumuzi)

” Dumuzi and Gizzida,” Adapa answered.

They looked at each other and laughed a lot.

When Adapa drew near to the presence of King An, An saw him and shouted,

(An / Anu Titi / Eve Adapa / Adam)

“Come here, Adapa! Why did you break South Wind’s wind”

Adapa answered An,

“My lord, I was catching fish in the middle of the sea,

For the house of my lord Enki.

But he inflated the sea into a storm

And south wind blew and sank me!

I was forced to take up residence in the fishes’ home.

In my fury, I cursed South Wind.”

Dumuzi and Gizzida responded from beside him,

Spoke a word in his favor to An.

His heart was appeased he grew quiet.

“Why did Enki disclose to wretched mankind

The ways of heaven and earth,

Give them a heavy heart

It was he who did it!

What can we do for him.

Fetch him the bread of eternal life and let him eat!”

They fetched him the bread of eternal life, but he would not eat.

They fetched him the water of eternal life, but he would not drink.

They fetched him a garment, and he put it on himself.

They fetched him oil, and he anointed himself.

(An / Anu, god the father in Heaven / planet Nibiru)

An watched him and laughed at him.

“Come Adapa, why didn’t you eat?

Why didn’t you drink?”

Didn’t you want to be immortal?

Alas for downtrodden people!”

(Enki, Anu‘s eldest & wisest son, 1st to arrive on Earth with crew of 50)

“But Enki my lord told me:

“You mustn’t eat! You mustn’t drink!”`

Take him and send him back to his earth.

(Adapa returned to Enlil & was placed in the “Eden” / Mesopotamia)
