Gods & Guardians of Assyria

The gods and protective spirits of Assyria — the great empire of northern Mesopotamia. From the national god Ashur, head of the Assyrian pantheon, to the winged-bull guardian Lamassu and the wind-demon Pazuzu, this series chronicles the deities and apotropaic powers of the Assyrian world, distinct from but kindred to Sumer and Babylon.
