Description

Unveil the Mythology of Mesopotamia and Persia! Step into the ancient temples of Sumer, the lion-guarded gates of Assyria, and the firelit courts of Persia with the Encyclopedia of Mythical Creatures: Mesopotamian & Persian Mythology Volume. This beautifully illustrated bestiary reveals a world where storm demons, corpse-haunting spirits, radiant bird guardians, and monstrous hybrids shaped centuries of ritual, storytelling, and belief. Discover Legendary Beings and Ancient Wonders: From the lion-headed storm demon Ugallu to the corpse-spoiling Druj Nasu, from the serpent-bodied Mushussu to the radiant wings of the Simurgh, each entry uncovers the roots of myths preserved in clay tablets, temple hymns, and epic tales such as the Shahnameh and the Epic of Gilgamesh. Rooted in the cosmologies of the Sumerians, Akkadians, Babylonians, Assyrians, and Persians, this volume brings to life the creatures who guarded order, spread corruption, and prowled the edges of creation itself. Stunning Artwork for Every Creature: Each being is reborn through luminous watercolor illustrations, capturing both their majesty and dread. Scholars, storytellers, and dreamers alike will find inspiration in these pages, where every brushstroke evokes the awe and terror of the world’s oldest civilizations. Perfect for Myth Enthusiasts, Historians, and Fantasy Lovers: Whether you are exploring Sumerian dragon lore, Zoroastrian divinities, or Persian epic poetry, this immersive collection offers a vivid journey through one of humanity’s first and most enduring mythic landscapes. Inside this book, you’ll find: In-depth profiles of legendary beings: Anzu, Lamassu, Tiamat, Humbaba, Djinns, Genies, Simurgh, Manticore, White Demon, and many more. Cultural insights into how myths shaped rituals, funerary customs, taboos, and the eternal battle between good and evil. Stunning illustrations that reveal the wonder and menace of each creature. Ideal for readers interested in: Mesopotamian Mythology, Persian Mythology, Zoroastrian Beliefs, Ancient Near Eastern Myths, Mythical Creatures, Mythology Books, Illustrated Bestiaries, Ancient Civilizations, and Fantasy Art Collections.
