Heavenly Romance

The romantic connections described in Tales of Mesopotamian Deities are a muddle, with all the muddy intricacies that come with carnal knowledge. These relationships frequently involve subtle types of deception, a strategy that has the potential to have serious negative effects on not only the involved parties but also the entire society. Famous writers throughout history, including Shakespeare, frequently plagiarized these alluring plot turns that originated in the so-called "Fertile Crescent."

Ishtar, the Goddess of Love and War, is the first deity for which we have written proof, and she is a key figure in many myths and stories. Many cultural archetypes, spanning from Aphrodite to Wonder Woman, reflect her legacy and influence. Interestingly, Ishtar has no significance in the 1987 film using her name; this is something the creators need to have given another thought to prevent making one of the worst movies in American cinema history.
