NOTES [1] Ni. 13981, published by Dr. Poebel in PBS. V, No. 2. [2] The local Bel of Erech and a bye-form of Enlil, the earth god. Here he is the consort of the mother goddess Ninsun. [3] Tammuz is probably a real personage, although _Dumu-zi_, his original name, is certainly later than the title _Ab-u_, probably the oldest epithet of this deity, see _Tammuz and Ishtar_, p. 8. _Dumu-zi_ I take to have been originally the name of a prehistoric ruler of Erech, identified with the primitive deity Abu. [4] See _ibid._, page 40. [5] Also Meissner's early Babylonian duplicate of Book X has invariably the same writing, see Dhorme, _Choix de Textes Religieux_, 298-303. [6] Sign whose gunufied form is read _aga_. [7] The standard text of the Assyrian version is by Professor Paul Haupt, _Das Babylonische Nimrodepos_, Leipzig, 1884.
