Nanna God evolved from my deepest belief that God is love...unconditional love...and the realization that the way I love my own grandchildren comes closest to being an example of that kind of love. In a world where the idea of God has been presented for millennia as masculine, warlike, angry and punishing, isn't it (past) time for another way? The book you are now holding in your hands offers another way.

Anunnaki Gods of the Earth and Heavens Hidden within the oldest accounts of humanity, the enigma of the Anunnaki reverberates through time, offering glimpses of a disquieting past: ancient beings who descended from the heavens and altered the course of life on Earth. In the plains of Sumer, where humanity took its first steps toward civilization and writing, it is said that the Anunnaki—immortal gods—found a primitive species and, through sophisticated genetic mutations, infused their own DNA, creating humankind. This book unveils a long-forgotten ancestral knowledge—a mystical fusion between the divine and the earthly that shaped human nature. As you delve into the power and mysteries of the Anunnaki, the stories of Enlil, the guardian of the heavens, and Enki, the master of creation and wisdom, emerge as hidden codes that may hold answers to our greatest existential questions. What do these ties to beings from other realms mean? And what destiny was reserved for us by those who shaped our DNA? In a narrative that intertwines archaeology and myth, readers are invited to uncover a truth that challenges modern understanding, drawing closer to the origins of our essence—a journey that promises to transform not only the past but the very idea of what it means to be human.

The story of Nanna is set against a dazzlingly detailed 13th-century Northern Europe, where all the power is in the hands of a few mighty lords.

Into this dark, wild, dangerous world a nobleman's daughter is born and becomes an instant orphan due to treacherous murder and arson. An old woman, believed to be a witch, raises the infant, whom she calls Nanna, sharing all her wisdom with her.

For almost three thousand years, Egypt and Mesopotamia were each ruled by the single sacred office of kingship. Though geographically near, these ancient civilizations were culturally distinct, and scholars have historically contrasted their respective conceptualizations of the ultimate authority, imagining Egyptian kings as invested with cosmic power and Mesopotamian kings as primarily political leaders. In fact, both kingdoms depended on religious ideals and political resources to legitimate and exercise their authority. Cross-cultural comparison reveals the sophisticated and varied strategies that ancient kings used to unify and govern their growing kingdoms. Experiencing Power, Generating Authority draws on rich material records left behind by both kingdoms, from royal monuments and icons to the written deeds and commissions of kings. Thirteen essays provocatively juxtapose the relationships Egyptian and Mesopotamian kings had with their gods and religious mediators, as well as their subjects and court officials. They also explore the ideological significance of landscape in each kingdom, since the natural and built environment influenced the economy, security, and cosmology of these lands. The interplay of religion, politics, and territory is dramatized by the everyday details of economy, trade, and governance, as well as the social crises of war or the death of a king. Reexamining established notions of cosmic and political rule, Experiencing Power, Generating Authority challenges and deepens scholarly approaches to rulership in the ancient world.

" ... No one can plausibly deny that the religious development of the peoples of Canaan (and indeed of all the ancient world around the eastern Mediterranean to the Indus river) were affected by the cultural and religious developments in Mesopotamia, the centre of the region, and a fertile region second to none known in the world, on a par with the Nile, around which another major civilization arose. This is a text of history of Mesopotamia in its own right. By the time history gets back this far, the lines become very blurred, rather like parallel lines intersecting on the horizon. Literature, religion, archaeology, sociology, psychology -- all of these disciplines become intertwined in Jacobsen's text as he looks at Sumerian society. The book is organized with an introduction, then according to time divisions of fourth, third, and second millennia, then concludes with an epilogue into the first millennium, during which the Bible as we know it (and most ancient history such as is commonly known occurred) came to be"--Amazon.com.
