The Anunnaki | Sumerian Mythology vs Pseudoscientific Theories
The Anunnaki are a prominent group of deities from ancient Mesopotamian cultures, most notably within Sumerian, Akkadian, Assyrian, and Babylonian mythologies. The word Anunnaki has often been interpreted as "those who from the heavens came to earth". The Anunnaki pantheon included a variety of deities such as Anu, Enlil, Enki, Ninhursag, Inanna (Ishtar), Nanna, Utu (Shamash), Dumuzi (Tammuz), Marduk, and Ashur. In the 20th century the Anunnaki were interpreted as "Ancient Astronauts" by writers like Erich von Däniken and Zecharia Sitchin. Their theories are rejected and considered pseudoscience within the scholarly community.
