Sumerian Mythology
Guide for descriptions of the main information, Gods of Sumerian mythology
The Sumerians were adherents of a polytheistic religion characterized by gods and anthropomorphic goddesses representing forces or presences in the material world, this notion quite present in the later Greek mythology. The gods originally created humans as servants for themselves, but released them when they became too difficult to handle.
Many stories in Sumerian religion appear homologous to stories in other Middle Eastern religions. For example, the biblical idea of man's creation and Noah's flood, are closely linked to the Sumerian tales. The gods and goddesses from Sumer have similar representations in the religions of the Akkadians, Canaanites and others. Similarly, a number of stories related to deities have Greek parallels; for example, the descent of Inanna / Ishtar to the underworld is impressively linked to the myth of Persephone.

I don't know if it's the translation to English, or what, but I noticed that the writing in the description of the Epic of Gilgamesh was terrible and almost illegible.

Ishtar and Inanna, Ninurta and Enlil, what else would you want?
Not So Bad. The App Is Unique One. So Many Interesting & Unknown Facts Are Gathered Here. But There Is A Very Very Very Big Problem in It :- The Pictures of The Mythological Characters Are Unable to Open Which Makes The App Really Dull. If The Picture May Be Opened It Would Become More Interesting & Nice-Looking. Otherwise The App Is Very Nice & Interesting. I Pray to The Developer/Developers, Please Fix The Problem. If The Problem Is Solved I Must Give It Five Stars. Now I'm Giving Three Stars.
