Anshar - Commander of Eagles

In Akkadian mythology and Sumerian mythology, Anshar (also Anshur, Ashur, Asshur) is the sky god. He is the husband of his sister Kishar; they are the children of Lahmu and Lahamu, and are the parents of Anu. He is sometimes depicted as having Ninlil as a consort. As Anshar, he is progenitor of the Akkadian pantheon; as Ashur, he is the head of the Assyrian pantheon. Anshar led the iggigi (astronauts) in the war against Tiamat.

He is often depicted as a humanoid being with an eagles head and 4 wings.

Hope you enjoy! This is the start of a series I'll be doing on the Anunnaki pantheon. I started with the grandfather of them all...

EDITED: More true to the time period, Anshar has been given a proper Akkadian style beard.
