Day 16 & 17, Lisin and Asalluhi
These two were drawn together, though they don’t have any association besides having the same mom (Ninhursag)
Lisin:
One of several deities to have a change of gender, being reguarded initially as female and then later male (not universally, some places they were still considered female) hence I thought it would be cool to have their gender be ambiguous. Lisin’s father is Sul-pa-e (to be drawn soon!)
Their character is little known - early on they had associations with various offering goods - minerals, gazelle horns, and medicinal plants, then their male character had an affiliation with fire.
Asalluhi:
I’ve only read a few papers about him, so my info is limited. From what I understand he was the patron god of Kuara associated with divination and having many of the characteristics of his father, Enki. Then at some point he was absorbed into Marduk. I basically consider him “Diet Marduk”.
