Temples of Sippar-Anunītu

sipparanunitu

Sippar-Anunītu (also referred to as Sippar-Amnanum; modern Tell ed-Der), a small city 6 km northeast of Sippar) and 63 km north of Babylon, is the cult center of the goddess Anunītu. Apart from the fact that its principal temple was called Eulmaš, a Sumerian ceremonial name shared with the Ištar temple at Agade, nothing else is known about the cultic topography of Sippar-Anunītu.
