Abstract

Abstract This article offers an edition of the newly reconstructed collective tablet N 1045+, which preserves portions of a zamzam song of Enlil and an uadi song of Ninlil. The latter composition describes a sexual encounter between Enlil and Ninlil. I would like to thank the curators of the Babylonian Section in Philadelphia, Grant Frame and Steve Tinney, for permission to publish the manuscript and Joshua Jeffers for taking excellent photographs.
