The Evolution of Tammuz/Dumuzid – Son of Ea/Enki
Показать описание
Please watch: "Child of Enlil: Ninazu - The Sumerian "Water Knower""
The Anunnaki god Ea/Enki here described not as a god, but as a spirit. He who had no form, the entity of many names. The resurrection of Tammuz had once been commemorated as well as his death, and the festivals had been identified, not only with that of the Egyptian Osiris, as at Gebal, but also with Hadad and Rimmon the Thunder gods. In its transplantation to the west, however, the cult of Tammuz–Adonis underwent a change. He was identified with other forms of the solar deity; his festivals were merged into theirs.
He ceased to be the Sun-god of spring and became the Sun-god of summer. In the highlands of Syria the summer was not dangerous for it was in Babylonia and not summer, Winter became the enemy who had slain the god.
The story of Tammuz was not of Semitic invention. The month of Tammuz was called in the Accadian calendar “the month of the errand of Ishtar,” a clear proof that the legend of the Descent of the goddess into Hades was already known.
Dumuzi: the word was interpreted by the Semites as meaning the “offspring,” “the only son;” but it may be merely a shortened form of the name Dumu-zi-apzu, “the son of the spirit of the deep.” The “spirit of the deep” is, of course, Ea/Enki, as is expressly stated in a mythological tablet, where Dumu-zi-apzu is given as the name of one of his six sons.
How early the designation must be, is shown by the fact that Ea/Enki appears in it as not yet a god, but as a spirit only. We are carried back to the first dawn of Chaldean religious belief. The name was translated by the Semites “Timmuz (or Dimmuz) of the flood”.
