Akkadian royal inscriptions (e.g., Sargon of Agade, ~2300 BCE) say the gods led the king’s army with a “melammu” (radiant cloud) by day and a star-like fire by night.
In Sumerian and Akkadian mythology, the Anunnaki are sky deities, offspring of the god An, meaning "sky" in Sumerian.
In the Akkadian Epic of Atrahasis, the Anunnaki, as higher gods, live in heavenly palaces while lower gods, the Igigi, perform earthly tasks.
This race divides into seven sub-races: Rmoahal, Tlavatli, Toltec, Turanian, Original Semites, Akkadian, and Mongolian.
Akkadian (Sixth Sub-Race): White; seafaring, oligarchic.
[…] The first, or Akkadian, sub-race arose, after the great catastrophe 800,000 years ago, in the land east of Atlantis." (p.
Akkadian: White, seafaring, ruled later Atlantis.
Governance varied by sub-race: from Manu rule in early groups to hereditary empires (Toltec), feudal systems (Turanian), patriarchal (Semite), oligarchic (Akkadian), and nomadic priest-rulers (Mongolian).
Akkadians to Levant, Phoenicia, Carthage, Basques.
The Akkadian Epic of Gilgamesh
Research into ancient Hebrew scriptures and Sumerian, Babylonian, Akkadian, and Assyrian texts reveals narratives of beings arriving on Earth from elsewhere.
These tablets provide insights into the religious beliefs and cosmology of the Sumerians, Akkadians, and Babylonians.
About 2400 BC, Sumer was invaded from the west and north by Semitic tribes, and by about 2350 BCwas captive to the warrior king Sargon the Great, who founded the Semite Akkadian Dynasty, whoseempire stretched from the Persian Gulf to the Mediterranean.
In fact, it would appear that civilizations such as those of the Akkadians,Phoenicians, Minoans, Assyrians, Babylonians, and even the Egyptians were merely devolved versions ofancient Sumer.
Sargon, the first great leader of the Akkadian dynasty, which succeeded theSumerians, attributed his knowledge to the god Anu, while the Babylonian king Hammurabi was said tohave gained power through Marduk, again a reference to the accounts of the Anunnaki.
The Akkadian version stated Utnapishtim had lived in Shuruppak, the seventh city built by theAnunnaki, which has been identified as the Anunnaki medical center.
Sargon went on to found the Semite Akkadian dynasty about 2200 BC, which finallyencompassed all of Mesopotamia.
With the fall of Sargon and the Akkadian empire, Marduk slipped from exile and attempted to regain hissovereignty over Babylon sometime before the year 2000 BC.

Cultural Origins: The Anunnaki feature prominently in Sumerian, Akkadian, Assyrian, and Babylonian myths.
He has also trained pastors in text interpretation, emphasizing that the biblical narratives are not about deities but rather about powerful beings, including the "sky people." He drew connections between the Bible's stories and ancient Sumerian, Babylonian, Assyrian, and Akkadian narratives, suggesting that some figures, such as the Anunnaki and Elohim, could be described as extraterrestrial beings (ETs) in modern terms.
Early Identity:Baal's precursor, known as Hadad (also Haddu or Rammanu in Akkadian), was initially a minor storm deity in Mesopotamian mythology.
Origin: The Akkadian, Babylonian, and Assyrian counterpart of Inanna.
The original name of Babylon was "Babilim" in the Akkadian language.
The name "Babylon" is derived from the Akkadian name "Babilim", which means "Gate of the Gods." The city was originally named Babilim by the Akkadians, a Semitic people who inhabited Mesopotamia.
The name "Babylon" is the Greek form of this original Akkadian name, introduced later when the Greeks encountered the city during their conquests under Alexander the Great.
Therefore, the name Babylon came into broader use through Greek influence, though its roots lie in the Akkadian language.
Akkadian.7.
These four, though differing considerably from each other, have been called "yellow," and this colour may appropriately define the complexion of the Turanian and Mongolian, but the Semite and Akkadian were comparatively white.
They were a turbulent, discontented race, always at war with their neighbours, especially with the then growing power of the Akkadians.
The birthplace of the Akkadian or 6th sub-race will be found on Map No.
Finally about 100,000 years ago they completely vanquished the Semites, and from that time onwards an Akkadian dynasty was set up in the old Semite capital, and ruled the country wisely for several hundred years.
Their colonists, who generally took to the nomadic life, almost exclusively adopted this form, but as we have seen they developed a considerable empire in the days of the[33] second map period, and possessed the great "City of the Golden Gates." They ultimately, however, had to give way before the growing power of the Akkadians.
It was in the third map period, about 100,000 years ago, that the Akkadians finally overthrew the Semite power.
The Semites and Akkadians were also to a certain extent colonizing races.
A considerable immigration of Akkadians then helped to modify the Egyptian type.
The Akkadians, though eventually becoming supreme rulers on the mother-continent of Atlantis, owed their birthplace as we have seen in the second map period, to the neighbouring continent—that part occupied by the basin of the Mediterranean about the present island of Sardinia being their special home.
The early Etruscans, the Phœnicians, including the Carthaginians and the Shumero-Akkads, were branches of this race, while the Basques of to-day have probably more of the Akkadian than of any other blood which flows in their veins.
A reference to the early inhabitants of our own islands may[41] appropriately be made here, for it was in the early Akkadian days, about 100,000 years ago, that the colony of Initiates who founded Stonehenge landed on these shores—"these shores" being, of course, the shores of the Scandinavian part of the continent of Europe, as shown in Map No.
3. The initiated priests and their followers appear to have belonged to a very early strain of the Akkadian race—they were taller, fairer, and longer headed than the aborigines of the country, who were a very mixed race, but mostly degenerate remnants of the Rmoahals.
The Tlavatli tongue was the basis used by the Turanians, who introduced such modifications that an entirely different language was in time produced; while the[45] Semites and Akkadians, adopting a Toltec ground-work, modified it in their respective ways, and so produced two divergent varieties.
Thus in the later days of Poseidonis there were several entirely different languages—all however belonging to the agglutinative type—for it was not till Fifth Race days that the descendants of the Semites and Akkadians developed inflectional speech.
We have already seen under the head of emigrations how a later sub-race—the Akkadians—in the erection of Stonehenge, reverted to this primitive building of monoliths.
Akkadian Usage: Appears as Kinâḫna in the Amarna letters (14th century BC) and Egyptian texts.
Ancient nations and tribes mentioned in the Bible, detailing their historical timelines, cultural roles, and interactions with the Israelites, from the Sumerians and Akkadians to the Greeks and Romans.
Summary: The Akkadians formed one of the first empires, uniting much of Mesopotamia under Sargon the Great.
This Tammuz even gets a month named after him in the Hebrew calendar, derived from the Akkadian and Babylonian calendar.
Nimrod's rule over Assyria reflects the long-standing cultural superiority of Babylonia over Assyria, pointing to a period before 2000 BC under the Akkadian or Ur III dynasties, or around 610 to 539 BC during the Neo-Babylonian Chaldean rule.
Similarly, the biblical character of Nimrod is not attested anywhere in Assyrian, Babylonian, Akkadian, or Sumerian literature or kings lists but is believed by many scholars to have been inspired by one or more real kings.
Sargon: The legendary ruler of the Akkadian Empire in ancient Mesopotamia presents a compelling case as a potential antecedent to Nimrod.
The Legend of Etana is an ancient Mesopotamian myth that originates from Sumerian and Akkadian cultures.
These texts, written in the Akkadian language, are fragmentary, and much of the original story is lost.
The Akkadian myth "Inúma ilú awílum" (Atrahasis), translated by Tikva Frymer-Kensky, explains: "The gods cast lots and divided (the Cosmos): [Anu] went up to [heaven] [Enlil had] the earth as his subject; [the lock,] the snare of the sea [was given] to [Enki] the wise."
This name is related to the Akkadian word Bāb-ili, which means "Gate of God" (from bābu meaning "gate" and ili meaning "god").
Akkadian (Bāb-ili): The Akkadian name Bāb-ili was the name used by the Babylonians themselves and reflects their own language and culture.
The Gutians, in particular, are known for their incursions into Mesopotamia and their temporary rule during the post-Akkadian period.
After the fall of the Akkadian Empire, the Gutians, who originated from the Zagros region, took control of parts of Mesopotamia, leading to a period of instability known as the Gutian dynasty.
Influence on Later Cultures: The concept of a sacred mountain or temple-mountain persisted in later Mesopotamian religions and even influenced the architecture and religious practices of subsequent civilizations, such as the Akkadians, Babylonians, and Assyrians.
Ishtar is the Akkadian name for the goddess
Akkadians: The sixth sub-race, distinguished by their advanced thought-power and love of novelty and change.
