SUPREME GOD OF SUMER AND AKKAD

ARTICLE ORIGINS

This article is a revision of a lecture delivered at the Middle Eastern Culture Center, Tokyo, on September 25, 1992. I wish to thank His Imperial Highness, Prince Takahito Mikasa, for his invitation to address the Center. I also must express my gratitude to The Japan Foundation and to Professor Hideo Fujii of Kokushikan University, Tokyo, for inviting me to Japan for a most stimulating and enjoyable visit.
