"And now we will make human beings; they will be like us and resemble us"-Genesis 1:26
"When people had spread all over the world, and daughters were being born, some of the heavenly beings saw that these young women were beautiful, so they took the ones they liked."- Genesis 6:1-3
The plurality of this scripture makes it clear that we were made in the image of God (Elohim/Yahweh/YHWH), simply meaning God was a physical entity who was surrounded by others who were the same as Him.

further reading of these tablets will allow the reader to view the similarities to the Book of Genesis and the flood in this epic tale.
"The Nephilim [GIANTS] were on the earth in those days—and also afterward—when the sons of God went to the daughters of humans and had children by them. They were the heroes of old, men of renown"- Genesis 6:4
This verse is in reference to the fact that the Annunaki/Nephilim (depending which language/civilisation you look into) interbred with the women of earth to procreate which God did NOT condone. There are many references to giants in the Old Testament which explains the many myths and legends of great heroes of our past. Perhaps we need to take a literal approach to our past and only then do things become more clear. This is one of the reasons God sent the Great Deluge.
"Then the LORD said "I will not allow people to live forever; they are mortal. From now on they will live no longer than 120 years"- Genesis 6:3-4 (would you want your creation to become more powerful than yourself?)
"When the LORD saw how wicked everyone on earth was and how evil their thoughts were all the time, he was sorry that he ever made them and put them on earth. He was so filled with regret that he said, " I will wipe out these people I have created and also the animals and the birds, because I am sorry that I made any of them."But the Lord was pleased with Noah"-Genesis 6:5-8
"Cush had a son named Nimrod [Gilgamesh], who became the world's greatest conqueror...At first his kingdom included Babylon, Erech, and Accad, all three of them in Babylonia."-Genesis 10:8-11 *author added brackets
The oldest civilisation known to man is the ancient Sumerians. They are credited for having the first religion,language, science and even the first known war. Sumer is located in today's southern Iraq. Ur (mentioned in the bible) is a city located in the region of Sumer. Abraham (the Father of Many Nations) is a native to Ur.
In 1849 archeologist discovered over 20,000 clay tablets in this region known as the "Sumerian Tablets" (dating to approx 3400 B.C) which describe the creation of man in great detail written in cuneiform script. These tablets were found in Sippar and Nippur (once again modern day Iraq). Some of these tales are later mis-translated and input into the book of Genesis (200-300 B.C).
"We saw the Nephilim there (the descendants of Anak [Annunaki] come from the Nephilim). We seemed like grasshoppers in our own eyes, and we looked the same to them."-Numbers 13:33 *author added brackets
ENKI
Elohim/Yahweh "God of Wisdom"
ENLIL
SATAM-Sumerian for administrator
SATAN in English
According to the Sumerian Tablets the earth was assembled by a conference of gods who included the two brothers Enki & Enlil. Enlil hated humanity and did not want man to become as powerful as they were while Enki the "God of Wisdom" and our creator later intervenes to save his creation from destruction that his brother plans to bring upon us. Both Enki & Enlil are part of a race called the Annunaki- "Those who from heaven came to earth". These beings came from a planet called NIBIRU (or Marduk in Greek mythology). Their genetically modified offspring were referred to in the bible as the Nephilim. Nibiru is also known as the "planet of the crossing" as it makes an est. 3600 year revolution around our sun & crosses between Mars & Jupiter. The symbol of the cross which is worshipped today in many religions originates from this time period.
It is believed that the Annunaki arrived here on earth between 300,000-456,000 years ago shortly before the existence of homosapiens. Their location upon arrival isn't quite clear to scholars yet the SE region of Turkey seems to be a prominent candidate for the famous Garden of Eden which is the region where the 4 rivers began to empty out into the Arabian sea. The Tigris & Euphrates are two of the four rivers. Until recently satellite imagery revealed that in fact there are 2 more rivers that previously were connected to the first two rivers but have since dried up.
The word paradise comes from the Greek form "paradeisos" meaning enclosed park or preserve for wild animals.
It has been suggested in the Sumerian tablets that man was created after numerous complaints of the Annunaki to their higher council members about the hard and tedious labor (mining for GOLD) which was needed to to be used in their home planet Nibiru which had a failing atmosphere. We were created to be slaves.
Kingu- Sumerian for "unskilled laborer".
Enki took the blood/genome from Kingu and modified it once again to enhance our consciousness which turned the gods against Enki. Enki was always referred to as the "serpent" because he himself was human with reptilian "features". This is the "serpent" who met Eve in the garden.
