The Advisors
I am doing some work on something and I have been trying to find all the advisors of all the indeividual gods and goddesses. I have a few of them. Usmu for Enki. Ninshubur for Ishtar. Do you know where I could find the advisors for the different gods and goddesses, and also learn a little something about them?
Re: The Advisors
Is there anything on the web? I can't order anything, right now. Kinda broke. Still in the proccess of finding out where I am to be. Every time I think I've got it, like when I was making a lot at Corning Inc., I come to find it's not for me. There are just a few things left that I could be, which fit my personality, goals and interests. That would be Psychologist, personal trainer, and anything relating to the two. I am going to see about getting into Psychology. It's a primary passion of mine, and I think a proffessor would respect my works. You can see them if you'd like. People tell me they have helped them in life.

Kiru, it is complicated sometimes to find the best and most accurate information in the net. Information of the kind you need, specific, you will have to turn to books.
hmmm... there were also 3,000 deities (approx.) in Mesopotamia. Kind of tricky to get all families of gods together, with wives, spouses, offspring, sukkals, etc.
I´m afraid we will have to start building our own tables of correspondences.
But I will post here the ones I know of too!

3) Enlil - Nusku
