The Babylonians had a successful, simple government. There were laws and punishments and only one ruler. The laws were stricter than ours. Family and tribe were the basic units that made up society. The government was also responsible for widows, orphans. It had adoption policies, and marriage markets.
Amma-an-ki
Dogon attributes Amma an-ki as the creator and sustainer of life on Earth. According to mythology, Amma's first encounter with the Earth didn't produce twins. She attributed this to her inability to maintain order in the universe. Accordingly, the jackal was associated to disorder and difficulty. However, a second intercourse with the Earth resulted in the conception of primordial divine twins.
Merodach
According to legend, Merodach created seven winds, including a thunderstone, a fourfold wind, and a storm-chariot. He also trained four venomous horses, and wore the robe of terror.
Sin
The Babylonians' religion began with Sabaism, which is a religion that worships the moon. Sabaism was transmitted to the Semites west of the Euphrates at different points in time. It was also propagated to the Canaanites. In this ancient society, both the sun god Eridu as well as moon-god were worshipped. They formed an astral triad of deities, each with a unique role within the pantheon.
Hammurabi
Hammurabi was the sixth king of the first Amorite dynasty. He created religious practices, including offering offerings to gods and priests, as well cleaning and purifying the temple. Priests were also given gifts. Extensive procesions were also used to celebrate festivals, such as the New Year Festival, that were dedicated to Marduk.
Man-iA!tusu
Babylonians were a culture that worshipped a variety of gods. IA!um, a legendary sacrificer, is one of the most prominent. His worship was widespread and his nameake is also a god for agriculture.
Assyrian gods
Babylonian religion included the Assyrian gods. Like the Assyrians and Babylonians, the Babylonians believed in an afterlife. According to their belief, the dead enter a dark cavern underneath the earth called Apsu. Here all the dead are collected. The island is inactive, with the exception of a few favoured people who are placed there.
