Revision as of 16:27, 21 March 2005
From Misplaced Pages:Redirects for deletion
- Nibiru -> Marduk (planet). A Google search for Nibiru garnered three times as many hits as one for +Marduk +planet. The redirection should go the other way around. In addition, Marduk is also an ancient Babylonian deity, and obviating the disambiguation would be beneficial for cosmetic reasons. --Smack 22:23, 26 Mar 2004 (UTC)
- Marduk (planet) is now at Nibiru, hopefully with the page histories of the two versions merged. Angela. 23:10, Apr 5, 2004 (UTC)
I moved this here because it is irremediably confused. If anyone can make sense of it, maybe it can go back in. My notes are inline, in italics.
Pantheons
According to some
- Sitchin, I assume
Nibiru is the supreme deity in the Sumerian
- so he's being confused with other deities, then? Check out Sumerian mythology.
and Babylonian
- Marduk was the supreme god; Nibiru is a celestial object associated with him. They're not the same.
pantheons. Though Nibiru is the god of 50 names and king of gods,
- really? or is he being mixed with a different god again?
according to others he is not related to Marduk in Babylonian mythology
- who are these idiots? The Babylonians /always/ associated Nibiru with Marduk. Or is this meant that the Sumerian god that some people call Nibiru, goodness knows why, is not related to Marduk? That would make a bit more sense.
(Marduk being the a god of Babylon, who was inserted into the old creation epic).

crackpot?
Noted crackpot Zecharia Sitchin That seems a bit subjective, don't you think? --Benji man 21:19, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)
