Main article: Anu

"Anu, king of the gods, they appointed to be their shepherd; the heavenly Anunnaki they entrusted to him.

At a point in the space-time continuum so distant from your reality as to be undefinable in your terms, a great cosmic exchange occurred in our triunal solar system, which consists of three Solar Deities: Sothis, Satais, and Anu (identified by your astronomers, respectively, as Sirius A, Sirius B, and Sirius C).

What was left behind in the world of matter was, in stellar terms, a minuscule dwarf star of super dense matter, which was eventually pulled into an elliptical orbit around the dominant sister star, Sothis—as was the distant cousin, Anu.

For reasons too complex to describe to you at this point in your awareness of celestial dynamics, Nebiru, the most remote planet in Anu’s orbit, was knocked off its rotational path in the process and sent careening through space to eventually be grabbed by the gravitational pull of your star, Ra, drawn into your solar system, and then ricocheted back out into space.

Other planet bodies circling Anu held their orbits, surviving the shock wave, while the planets orbiting Satais (Sirius B) were sucked into the vortex and through her astral chord, ascending with the Deity onto higher dimensional planes.

We wish to clarify that, when referring to the Annunaki, we are speaking of the dark forces of Nebiru—the warriors of Anu—but we ask you to bear in mind that there, too, dark and light forces are at work.

The Annunaki, in ancient Earth languages, means something similar to, “Those who came from the sky, the children of Anu.” (Anu was a well-known ancient ET figure.)

Sargon, the first great leader of the Akkadian dynasty, which succeeded the Sumerians, attributed his knowledge to the god Anu, while the Babylonian king Hammurabi was said to have gained power through Marduk, again a reference to the accounts of the Anunnaki.

With the supreme Nibirian ruler, Anu—or An or El, depending on the source—supervising their effort from the home planet, the Anunnaki began a systematic colonization of Earth under the leadership of Anu’s two sons, Enlil and Enki. 

As in later Earth dynasties, the firstborn, Enki, was relegated to secondary status because his mother was not the official wife of Anu. This removed him from the royal line of succession.

The Babylonian trinity was composed of Hea, Anu, and Bel. Bel represented the sun, and was the favorite god.

The supreme triad in Babylonian/Sumerian religion was indeed Anu (sky/heaven god), Enlil (later called Bel or Belus, god of earth/storms/wind), and Ea (also Hea or Enki, god of fresh waters/wisdom/crafts/underworld).

Anu is the equivalent of the unmanifested deity AIN SOPH, while Bel is the Spirit of God or Sephira, and Hea the Universal Soul or wisdom of the three combined (SD I:357).

It is interesting how the prefix “an” in both Sumerian and Egyptian means “of Heaven.” Anubis (Anpu in Egyptian) and Anu (Sumerian) both possessed the symbology of the jackal or dog, suggesting a direct connection to the Dog Star Sirius.

On Aessir Anunnaki, Anunnaki are framed as children of Anu, those from the sky.

There Elohim reads as the more generic “powerful ones / gods,” while Anunnaki reads as the more concrete Mesopotamian “offspring of Anu.” Mauro Biglino is quoted equating Elohim, Anunna, and Theō as the same individuals.

On the Sumerian side, Anunnaki / Anunna are deities of the Anu family in Mesopotamian myth.

Government Officials could be seen in the light of Anu (An), the supreme deity who represents authority and kingship, overseeing and administering the larger cosmic order.

Sumerian Mythology: In Sumerian beliefs, the trinity of Anu (god of the sky), Enlil (god of air and storm), and Enki (god of water and knowledge) were crucial in their pantheon, often considered the most powerful deities.

Early humans considered Anu Gods, which is the origin of religion.

The male line, the female line of the first humans created by the Anu

Anu decided to infuse their genetic material into the natural humanoid that evolved on your planet that you refer to as Homo Erectus Homo Habulus.

Some of their Anu become their tutors

That's why the early humans considered Anu Gods, that's the origin of religion.

14 Anu, their son, could rival his fathers.15 Anu, the son, equalled Anšar,16 And Anu begat Nudimmud, his own equal.17 Nudimmud was the champion among his fathers:18 Profoundly discerning, wise, of robust strength;19 Very much stronger than his father's begetter, Anšar20 He had no rival among the gods, his brothers.

Since Protein-based support material that is produced by cells is the forefather of all living animals, it's likely that we can match this with Anu.

So if Anu represents Protein-based support material that is produced by cells then Anšar represents Yeast

16 And Anu begat Nudimmud, his own equal."5) Different kinds of body tissuesAnd the other conjunction is 'Sponge'

A protein-based support material that is produced by cells (Anu) and yeast (Anšar) evolved from flagella.

Anu evolved into different kinds of body tissues (Nudimmud).

86 A nurse reared him and filled him with terror.87 His figure was well developed, the glance of his eyes was dazzling,88 His growth was manly, he was mighty from the beginning.89 Anu, his father's begetter, saw him,90 He exulted and smiled; his heart filled with joy.91 Anu rendered him perfect: his divinity was remarkable,92 And he became very lofty, excelling them in his attributes.93 His members were incomprehensibly wonderful,94 Incapable of being grasped with the mind, hard even to look on.95 Four were his eyes, four his ears,96 Flame shot forth as he moved his lips.97 His four ears grew large,93 And his eyes likewise took in everything.99 His figure was lofty and superior in comparison with the gods,100 His limbs were surpassing, his nature was superior.

105 Anu formed and gave birth to the four winds,

Anu granted him the totality of knowledge of all.

the gods of the heavens implored the Lord of Uruk [Anu]

Anu listened to their complaints,

When Aruru heard this she created within herself the zikrtt of Anu.

      his strength is as mighty as the meteorite(?) of Anu!

      he is as strong as the meteorite(?) of Anu.

      his strength is as mighty as the meteorite(?) of Anu!

      to the Holy Temple, the residence of Anu and Ishtar,

      to the sacred Holy Temple, the residence of Anu and Ishtar,

      and Anu, Enlil, and La have enlarged his mind."

      and some kind of meteorite(?) of Anu fell next to me.

      and the meteorite(?) of Anu which fell next to you,

      his strength is mighty as the meteorite(!) of Anu!

      "he is as mighty as the meteorite(!) of Anu!"

The Igigi were another group of divine beings, often referred to as "the younger gods." They were also considered to be offspring of Anu, and their main function was to serve the Anunnaki.

He (Ellil) was furious (with the Igigi,]'We, the great Anunna, all of us,Agreed together on [a plan].Anu and [Adad] were to guard [above],I was to guard the earth [below].

In paleo-contact research, the Anunnaki are sky travelers remembered as the children of Anu, the ancient sky figure tied to Sumerian and Akkadian divine names.

The Annunaki, in ancient Earth languages, means something similar to, “Those who came from the sky, the children of Anu.” (Anu was a well-known ancient ET figure.) Annunaki referred to ETs in general and not a specific race; they contained multiple races.

Etymology on this trail hears An / Anu as sky, -na as “of,” and Ki as earth: offspring of An, or beings of heaven and earth.

The Earth mission on this trail centers on gold, tribal sky-people politics, and two bloodlines under Anu.

Figures on the same shelf include Anu, Alalu (Earth / gold discoverer in Sitchin-style lists), Poseidon as an Anunnaki father in Matias’s map, and Noah / Manu as flood-survivor neighbors.

Sky children of Anu: multi-race travelers who came from the sky in The Golden Lake’s definition, and divine offspring of An / great gods in Sumerian–Akkadian Anunna tradition.

This site maps them as a labeled name bridge (ansuz / ásura / Anu), not as one dictionary entry that erases either stream.

Maybe this explains why there was disagreement between Anu and Enlil?

Where Enlil was the counselor/god of earth, Anu (and the spaceship) was somewhere else?

The god who instructed Noah to build the arc was Uriel or Anu

Then Ziusudra opened a window in the large boat, allowing sunlight to enter, and he prostrated himself before the sun-god Utu. After landing, he sacrificed a sheep and an ox and bowed before Anu and Enlil. For protecting the animals and the seed of mankind, he was granted eternal life and taken to the country of Dilmun, where the sun rises.

Anu their father was king,Their counsellor warrior Ellil,Their chamberlain was Ninurta,Their canal-controller Ennugi.They took the box (of lots) … ,Cast the lots; the gods made the division.

Anu went up to the sky,(And Ellil (?)] took the earth for his people (?).The bolt which bars the seaWas assigned to far-sighted Enki.

Not three epochs had passed.The country became too wide, the people toonumerous.The country was as noisy as a bellowing bull.The gods grew restless at their noise.Enlil organized his assembly again,Addressed the gods his sons:'The noise of mankind has become too much,Sleep cannot overtake me because of their racket.Command that Anu and Adad keep the (air)above (earth) locked,Sin and Nergal keep the middle earth locked.

The Annunaki, in ancient Earth languages, means something similar to, “Those who came from the sky, the children of Anu.” (Anu was a well-known ancient ET figure.) Annunaki referred to ETs in general and not a specific race; they contained multiple races.

Anu remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle that were with him in the ark.

Anu - God of the sky (all living animals)

Anshar - God of the horizon and father of Anu

Kishar - Goddess of the earth and mother of Anu

Antu - Goddess of the sky and wife of Anu

Ninti - Goddess of life, childbirth, and the rib (in some versions of Mesopotamian myth, Ninti was created by the god Enki to heal the god of the sky, Anu, after he was injured)

Anshar - God of the horizon and father of Anu

Kishar - Goddess of the earth and mother of Anu

Anu - God of the sky

Antu - Goddess of the sky and wife of Anu

Enlil - God of wind and earth - Son of Anu

Ea - God of wisdom and magic - Son of Anu

They are the parents of the god Anu, who becomes the god of the sky and the supreme deity in the Babylonian pantheon.

Anu, their son, seeks help from Anshar, who sends him to his son Marduk, another younger god, to seek his aid in defeating Tiamat.

Anu was their heir, the first among them; Anshar was the second, and Kishar was the third.

Anu begot Nudimmud in his likeness; This Nudimmud was of his father Anu.

Lahmu and Lahamu are often depicted as being the parents of Anshar and Kishar, who in turn give birth to the god Anu, the supreme deity in the Babylonian pantheon.
