Version One
In days of yore, in the distant days of yore,
In nights of yore, in the far-off nights of yore,
In days of yore, in the distant days of yore,
After in days of yore all things needful had been brought into being,
After in days of yore all things needful had been ordered,
After bread had been tasted in the shrines of the Land,
After bread had been baked in the ovens of the Land,
After heaven had been moved away from earth,
After earth had been separated from heaven,
After the name of man had been fixed,
(Apkulla / eagle headed & winged pilot, Enki, Anu in his sky-disk above the Tree of Life, Enlil, & Apkulla / pilot)
After An (planet Nibiru‘s King of the Anunnaki, Anu) had carried off heaven,
After Enlil (Anu‘s son & heir, Earth Colony Commander) had carried off earth,
After Ereshkigal (Queen of the Under World) had been carried off into the nether world as its prize —
After he had set sail, after he had set sail,
After the father had set sail for the nether world,
Against the king, the small were hurled,
Against Enki (Anu‘s eldest & wisest son, 1st to arrive on Earth with crew of 50), the large were hurled,
Its small stones of the hand,
Its large stones of the dancing reeds,
The keel of Enki‘s boat,
Overwhelm in battle like an attacking storm,
Against the king, the water at the head of the boat,
Devours like a wolf,
Against Enki, the water at the rear of the boat,
Strikes down like a lion.
Once upon a time, a tree, a huluppu, a tree —
It had been planted on the bank of the Euphrates,
It was watered by the Euphrates —
The violence of the South Wind plucked up its roots,
Tore away its crown,
The Euphrates carried it off on its waters.
The woman, roving about in fear at the word of An,
Roving about in fear at the word of Enlil,
(young goddess Inanna, spoiled granddaughter to Enlil)
Took the tree in her hand, brought it to Erech (Uruk, her patron city):
“I shall bring it to pure Inanna‘s fruitful garden.”
The woman tended the tree with her hand, placed it by her foot,
Inanna tended the tree with her hand, placed it by her foot,
“When will it be a fruitful throne for me to sit on,” she said,
“When will it be a fruitful bed for me to lie on,” she said.
(Inanna speaks to deceased spouse Dumuzi in the Under World)
The tree grew big, its trunk bore no foliage,
In its roots the snake who knows no charm set up its nest,
In its crown the Imdugud-bird placed its young,
In its midst the maid Lilith (Inanna?, Biblical Lilith?) built her house —
The always laughing, always rejoicing maid,
The maid Inanna — how she weeps!
As light broke, as the horizon brightened,
(Utu, Inanna‘s twin brother, the Sun god rising over the mountains)
As Utu came forth from the “princely field,”
His sister, the holy Inanna,
Says to her brother Utu:
“My brother, after in days of yore the fates had been decreed,
After abundance had sated the land,
(alien Anunnaki King Anu in his winged sky-disc, father in heaven to the gods)
After An had carried off heaven,
(Enlil, father King Anu‘s appointed Earth Colony Commander, & Enki‘s younger 1/2 brother)
After Enlil had carried off earth,
(Ereshkigal, spouse to Nergal, Queen of the Nether World / Under World / Lower World / Hades)
After Ereshkigal had been carried off (appointed Commander) into the nether world as its prize ––
After he had set sail, after he had set sail,
After the father had set sail for the nether world,
Against the king, the small were hurled,
Against Enki, the large were hurled,
Its small stones of the hand,
Its large stones of the dancing reeds,
The keel of Enki‘s boat,
Overwhelm in battle like an attacking storm,
Against the king, the water at the head of the boat,
(alien gods boating on rivers Euphrates & Tigris)
Devours like a wolf,
Against Enki, the water at the rear of the boat,
Strikes down like a lion.
Once upon a time, a tree, a huluppu, a tree —
It had been planted on the bank of the Euphrates,
It was watered by the Euphrates —
The violence of the South Wind plucked up its roots,
Tore away its crown,
The Euphrates carried it off on its waters.
The woman, roving about in fear at the word of An,
Roving about in fear at the word of Enlil,
Took the tree in her hand, brought it to Erech:
“I shall bring it to pure Inanna‘s fruitful garden.’
The woman tended the tree with her hand, placed it by her foot,
(aliens working to establish Earth Colony)
Inanna tended the tree with her hand, placed it by her foot,
“When will it be a fruitful throne for me to sit on,’ she said,
“When will it be a fruitful bed for me to lie on,’ she said.
The tree grew big, its trunk bore no foliage,
In its roots the snake who knows no charm set up its nest,
In its crown the Imdugud-bird placed its young,
In its midst the maid Lilith (Inanna?) built her house —
(Inanna atop her zodiac symbol of Leo, holding alien technologies, posed as modern goddess Liberty)
The always laughing, always rejoicing maid, I, the maid Inanna, how I weep!”
(Utu, twin Inanna, & brother Papsukal, Nannar’s & Ningal‘s, children)
Her brother, the hero, the valiant Utu,
Stood not by her in this matter.
As light broke, as the horizon brightened,
(Utu shapes launch pads in mountain ranges, & launch towers)
As Utu came forth from the “princely field,”
(worker-warrior earthlings with no chance against giant alien gods Utu & Inanna)
His sister, the holy Inanna,
(Gilgamesh, 5th mixed-breed king of Uruk, Inanna‘s resident city)
Speaks to the hero Gilgamesh:
“My brother, after in days of yore the fates had been decreed,
After abundance had sated the land,
After An had carried off (returned to) heaven,
(Anu & Enlil traverses the skies in his sky-disc, mapping out the lands of Earth)
After Enlil had carried off (appointed Earth’s Commander) earth,
After Ereshkigal had been carried off (Commander of) into the nether world as its prize —
After he had set sail, after he had set sail,
After the father had set sail for the nether world,
Against the king, the small were hurled,
Against Enki, the large were hurled,
Its small stones of the hand,
Its large stones of the dancing reeds,
The keel of Enki‘s boat,
Overwhelm in battle like an attacking storm,
Against the king, the water at the head of the boat,
Devours like a wolf,
Against Enki, the water at the rear of the boat,
Strikes down like a lion.
(Noah‘s spouse Noah Plant of Life Gilgamesh)
Once upon a time, a tree, a huluppu, a tree —
It had been planted on the bank of the Euphrates,
It was watered by the Euphrates —
The violence of the South Wind plucked up its roots,
Tore away its crown,
(aliens landed in Persian Gulf, & established Sumer there)
The Euphrates carried it off on its waters.
The woman, roving about in fear at the word of An,
Roving about in fear at the word of Enlil,
Took the tree in her hand, brought it to Erech:
“I shall bring it to pure Inanna‘s fruitful garden.’
The woman tended the tree with her hand, placed it by her foot,
Inanna tended the tree with her hand, placed it by her foot,
“When will it be a fruitful throne for me to sit on,’ she said,
“When will it be a fruitful bed for me to lie on,’ she said.
(Nergal, Inanna, Dumuzi, Utu, & mixed-breed king)
The tree grew big, its trunk bore no foliage,
In its roots the snake who knows no charm set up its nest,
In its crown the Imdugud-bird placed its young,
In its midst the maid Lilith built her house —
The always laughing, always rejoicing maid,
I, the maid Inanna, how I weep!”
Her brother, the hero Gilgamesh,
Stood by her in this matter,
He donned armor weighing fifty minas about his waist —
Fifty minas were handled by him like thirty shekels —
His “ax of the road” —
Seven talents and seven minas — he took in his hand,
At its roots he struck down the snake who knows no charm,
(Imdugud-bird)
In its crown the Imdugud-bird took its young, climbed to the mountains,
In its midst the maid Lilith tore down her house, fled to the wastes.
The tree — he plucked at its roots, tore at its crown,
The sons of the city who accompanied him cut off its branches,
He gives it to holy Inanna for her throne,
(giant alien Inanna, Goddess of Love to both gods & mixed-breed kings)
Gives it to her for her bed,
She fashions its roots into a pukku for him,
Fashions its crown into a mikku for him.
The summoning pukku — in street and lane he made the pukku resound,
The loud drumming — in street and lane he made the drumming resound,
The young men of the city, summoned by the pukku —
Bitterness and woe — he is the affliction of their widows,
“O my mate, O my spouse,” they lament,
Who had a mother — she brings bread to her son,
Who had a sister — she brings water to her brother.
(Inanna with her 8-pointed star symbol of Venus)
After the evening star (Venus) had disappeared,
And he had marked the places where his pukku had been,
He carried the pukku before him, brought it to his house,
At dawn in the places he had marked — bitterness and woe!
Captives! Dead! Widows!
Because of the cry of the young maidens,
His pukku and mikku fell into the “great dwelling,”
He put in his hand, could not reach them,
Put in his foot, could not reach them,
(Ereshkigal, Inanna, & Gilgamesh)
He sat down at the great gate ganzir, the “eye” of the nether world,
Gilgamesh wept, his face turns pale . . . .

(gods in blue …mixed-breed demigods in teal…)
(Enkidu = Ninhursag’s creature creation)
Narrator: In the first days, in the very first days /
In the first nights, in the very first nights
In the first years, in the very first years /
In the first days when everything needed was brought into being /
In the first days when everything needed was properly nourished
When bread was baked in the shrines of the land
And bread was tasted in the homes of the land
When heaven (Nibiru‘s orbit) had moved away from earth
And earth had separated from heaven
And the name of man was fixed /
When the Sky God, An, had carried off the heavens,
And the Air God, Enlil had carried off the earth,
When the Queen of the Great Below,
Ereshkigal, was given the Underworld for Her domain.
At that time, a tree, a single tree, a huluppu tree
Was planted by the banks of the Euphrates
The whirling South Wind Inanna, pulling at its roots
And ripping at its branches
Until the waters of the Euphrates carried it away
(Sky God An / Anu hovering above in his sky disc)
A woman who walked in the fear of the word of the Sky God, An,
Who walked in the fear of the Air God, Enlil,
Plucked the Tree from the river and spoke:
(Lights focusing on Inanna, who will be ‘planting and taking care of’ a tree)
Inanna: ‘ I shall bring this tree to Uruk I shall plant this tree in my holy garden”.
Narrator: Inanna cared for the tree with her hand
She settled the earth around the tree with her foot She wondered:
Inanna: “How long will it be until I have a shining throne to sit upon?
How long will it be until I have a shining bed to lie upon?”
Narrator: As the years passed by, five years, then ten years, Inanna kept wondering about her throne and bed.
(Inanna seated on her throne in Uruk, city of gods & earthlings)
Who could help Inanna in her quest for
Sovereignty to share?
Only a hero on the make could he be
A hero seeking for the Goddess without and within.
Finally he came, at the coming of the dawn, the hero came
(Gilgamesh, his mother Ninsun, & his companion Enkidu)
Display Inanna and Gilgamesh sitting under the Tree
From the trunk of the tree Gilgamesh carved a throne for his holy sister
From the trunk of the tree Gilgamesh carved a bed for Inanna
From the roots of the tree she fashioned a ring for her brother
From the crown of the tree Inanna fashioned a rod for Gilgamesh
Thus Goddess and Hero sit together as Friends
(Gilgamesh, Enkidu, Gilgamesh, naked Inanna, Inanna)
And so this Great Myth (tales of Inanna & Gilgamesh) begins.
