Abstract

The ancient Mesopotamian gods Ium and endursanga have been studied separately and together. 1 It is not the purpose here to repeat the evidence and ideas put forward in these studies, but to explore a role of these two gods that has repercussions for our knowledge of the urban environment in ancient Mesopotamia.
