Enki is a god that has been overlooked in the past, but he is worthy of your attention. He is a figurehead of a society that has remained undiscovered until 200 years ago.
The gods and rituals that define a society are often a perfect template to glimpse into how they lived. This book is all about the ancient Sumerians and how they formed a society that is still recognizable today. Enki is just one of the gods who influenced them and made their society so interesting. Welcome to a journey into the past and an introduction to one of the most influential forces of the ancient world. While the rest of the world dealt with living in the Stone Age, the ancient Sumerians started producing metal objects and building huge cities filled with factories and dwellings. The ziggurat that defended their cities were monuments to their most powerful gods and goddesses, and they reflected their importance in the lives of their citizens.
