2. The “Grand Assembly of the Annunaki” and Mankind
However, it is at the
second of Gardner’s genealogical tables that things begin to become
very interesting indeed.
Gardner’s Fourth through Sixth Generations of the Grand
Assembly of the Anunnaki557
The reader should
bear in mind that the solid lines of this chart connect with the
ones in the previous table. Thus, Nabak is the son of Marduk, while
Nergal is revealed to be the son of Enlil and Ninlil. Consider what
this means from the point of view of the texts examined in chapters
five and six: it means that Enlil and Enki, who themselves at some
point are guardians or keepers of the Tablets of Destinies, have
“traded off” guardianship of the objects from one side of the
pantheon to the other, or that they
became booty of war in the pantheon’s ongoing warfare. Recalling
that Nergal is also the “god” of Mars and war, and at one brief
period also in possession of the Tablets, it would seem to indicate
that they had not only been passed from one wing of the pantheon
family to the other, but from one planet to another, from Earth to
Mars or vice versa. This would be corroborated by the
interplanetary implications of the Two Eyes of Horus, as discussed
in the previous chapter.
But note who Nergal’s
daughter is: the infamous Lilith of Jewish tradition, Adam’s first
wife.
Thus, at the final
tier of Gardner’s three initial genealogical charts, we arrive at
Adam, Eve, and Lilith. And at this point an even more suggestive and intriguing set of relationships
becomes evident.
