Tales of the Ancient Near East
​
Description:
Written by Meadow Nimŋirra Davey (with contributions from Entu Siri Nin), Sumerian Mythology: Tales of the Ancient Near East offers a living, devotional perspective on the ancient Mesopotamian pantheon. Moving beyond the cold, detached lenses of purely academic reconstructionism, this collection breathes heart, love, and spiritual vitality back into the stories of the Anunna, most notably the beloved Goddess Inanna Ištar.

Built on Revivalist Interpretations & Contemporary Personal Gnosis:
The core of this work is the result of a commitment to living revivalism over rigid ancient reconstructionism. In drawing inspiration from Enheduanna, the Ancient Akkadian High Priestess of Enzu and the world’s first named author whose timeless hymns were born of her own personal gnosis experiences with the Divine, Meadow Davey weaves together modern revivalist personal gnosis with traditional historical academic mythology to create this work of devotion, which readers will find to be an immersive living, breathing collection of stories that invites the reader to forge their own connection with Divinity, and encourages them to come to know the ever-living Divine for themselves through their own experiences. Leaving behind the problematic reconstructionist practices of locking the Gods and their stories into the distant ancient past by denying them voice and presence in the here and now, Meadow Davey’s Sumerian Mythology sets a new revolutionary standard for revivalist mythological tradition going forwards.

Where ancient tales were distorted by historical biases or centuries of patriarchal influence, the author uses personal gnosis and extensive spiritual experience in accordance with the teachings of her mentor, Siri Nin, to correct, complete, and restore the previously broken and corrupted narratives in brand new retellings of well known ancient myths. Readers will discover within them a kinder and more assertive vision of Inanna that reveals a deep and accurate understanding of the Goddess. Some examples of such featured retellings of traditional narratives are the Huluppu Tree, where in this revolutionary version Inanna does not require the destructive aid of Gilgameš, and the Story of the Flood, where in this theologically nuanced version responsibility is shared among all of the Deities of the Anunnite Pantheon, revealing not only their motives, but their heartache at the resulting outcome. Included within the section of never-before-released stories are sacred explorations of gender diversity, including the origins of Inanna’s deep acceptance and patronage of transgender and non-binary people. Through insight and familiarity born of years of close devotion filled with direct personal interactions with Inanna, author Meadow Davey reveals plainly sacred knowledge and understandings that often take the neophyte a lifetime to gain a glimpse of without wizened guidance. Meadow carries on in the tradition of her mentor Siri Nin and invites you to come explore a truer visage of the Divine with an open mind and an open heart.
