  1. dumuzi

    Dumuzi, also known as Tammuz, was an ancient Mesopotic god associated with shepherds and vegetation, particularly with the fertility of the soil. He was considered the lover or husband of the goddess Inanna (Ishtar), and his annual "death and resurrection" was commemorated in dramatic performances during annual Mesopotamian festivals. In historical context, Dumuzi represents one of the earliest recorded examples of a dying-and-rising deity figure in human religious practices.
