Tammuz - Drums of Atlantis

Pre-Flood

Wadd in Islamic Tradition

Role: Tammuz was a Sumerian and later Babylonian god associated with fertility, vegetation, and renewal.

Themes of Love: Tammuz's myth involved his romantic and tragic relationship with Inanna (Ishtar), the goddess of love and war.

Connection to Wadd: Like Tammuz, Wadd may have symbolized communal love and fertility, playing a similar role in the local pantheon.

Mesopotamian Artifacts: Fertility idols like Tammuz and Ishtar are commonly found in Mesopotamian archaeological sites, depicted with motifs of love and prosperity.

The Gods of the Phœnician also Kings of Atlantis

The Phœnicians tell us, "Ouranos had by Ge four sons: Ilus (El), who is called Chronos, and Betylus (Beth-El), and Dagon, which signifies bread-corn, and Atlas (Tammuz?)." Here, again, we have the names of two other kings of Atlantis.

The origin of Nimrod

Demuzid, or Tammuz, later known as the consort of Ishtar, also appears, reminding us of Oannes coming up from the sea, giving divination, etc.

This Tammuz even gets a month named after him in the Hebrew calendar, derived from the Akkadian and Babylonian calendar.

The Worship of the Sun

Verses: "Then he brought me to the entrance of the north gate of the house of the Lord, and I saw women sitting there, mourning the god Tammuz."

Narrative Support: This verse depicts the worship of the Mesopotamian god Tammuz, further evidence of the Israelites adopting foreign religious practices, which Yahweh found abhorrent.

Akkadian

Ishtar

She is also known for her many lovers, including the shepherd Tammuz (Dumuzi), who is associated with the seasonal cycle of death and rebirth.

The Gods of the Phoenicians also kings of Atlantis

Ouranos married his sister Ge, and in Phoenician mythology, Ouranos had by Ge four sons: Ilus (El), who is called Chronos, Betylus (Beth-El), Dagon (signifying bread-corn), and Atlas (Tammuz?).

Babylonian Calendar

Du'uzu (Tammuz) – June 21 to July 20

Significance: Named after the god Tammuz, this month included mourning rituals for his death, reflecting the dry summer season and the dying of vegetation.

Archons

From the Hebrew term for "the Lord", used of God; Adonis of the Syrians representing the Winter sun in the cosmic tragedy of Tammuz.

Planets

There are other gods besides the seven; the text describes the fixed stars such as Sirius as gods, and refers to the Mesopotamian god Tammuz as well as to Nasr, a pre-Islamic Arabian deity.

Ibn Washiyya's description of the Tammuz ritual is particularly valuable, as it is more detailed than any other Arabic source.

In this ritual, people would weep for Tammuz, who was "killed time after time in horrible ways," during the month of the same name.

Ibn Wahshiyya also explains that the Christians of the region had a very similar practice, the Feast of Saint George, and speculates that the Christians may have adapted their custom from the Tammuz ritual.
