Isha The Origin: The Complete Saga: An Exciting Novel of Adventure, Fiction, and Ancient Mythology.
In the late spring of 1998, my uncle Frank, an amateur archaeologist and lover of Sumerian stories, embarked on a journey to Iraq with the intention of acquiring some tablets about the Anunnaki, his passion for years. But to his surprise, he ended up finding something very different.
In the southwest of Iraq, in the city of Hit, he met the strange seller of ancient relics. It was the same person he had contacted months earlier, who had offered him a considerable number of them, supposedly bought from a farmer on the outskirts of Mosul.
According to my uncle's words, he was impressed when he saw the 5 clay pots in front of him, each about 62 cm in size, with a decoration that reminded him of ancient Babylon. But what was inside left him even more astonished: 203 circular tablets in a Semitic Akkadian language, some with unknown writing, but something very different from the Sumerian ones.
Months later, with the help of two friends knowledgeable in ancient Akkadian, he traveled back to Iraq and transcribed them one by one into his diary. He was shocked to learn their meaning, as it was a story that happened before Sumeria existed, and was recorded in tablet number 4: "that the gods came down to earth 286,000 moons ago, before there was Sumeria, Tietro, Moppe, and Ashuayabul".
These were evidently copies of an original tale that the Babylonians or Akkadians copied from somewhere. Even tablet number 6 reads: "that the 7,000 original circular ones are resting in the tomb of the wife of the great king Ashurbarnipal".
Part of the saga that I will tell was taken from the history of tablets number 1 to 203 that my uncle relates in his diary, about the human life of Isha; a demigod who lived 207,000 moons ago, procreated by the same gods, his wars against demons, the rebellion of the gods, his enemies, his transformation, and his incredible ending. Perhaps, among ancient mythology, some truth can be glimpsed.
