HISTORY

Meslamta-Ea is the god of war in Mesopotamian mythology. Meslamta-Ea and his twin brother Lugal-Irra may appear to be buffoons, but appearances can be deceiving. In ancient Sumeria, they were both regarded as aspects of their brother Nergal, god of death. The twins are consumate schemers and were recently instrumental in overthrowing Nergal’s rule.
