Enuma Elish (The Seven Tablets of Creation)

In my reading, I’ve come to understand that the Enuma Elish, also known as The Seven Tablets of Creation, is a traditional Babylonian narrative that likely dates back to the period between 1900 B.C. and 1200 B.C. This ancient tale provides intricate details about the creation of the Earth’s moon, humans, and various gods.

What makes the Enuma Elish particularly captivating is its antiquity, predating the narratives found in the Holy Bible and the Quran. Unlike these religious texts where a single deity is the central figure, the Enuma Elish features multiple gods, with Marduk and Tiamat playing pivotal roles.

This ancient narrative offers a distinct perspective on the origins of our world and all that resides within it. You can explore more about this here
