The article deals with the theology of the lilis kettledrum, used to accompany prayers in ancient Mesopotamian temple cult. The article analyzes the ritual in which the head of the kettledrum was covered with the hide of a bull and the ancient commentary on this ritual, showing that the ancient understanding of this ritual was that it reflected the primordial battle between the gods Enlil and Enmešara over the rule of the universe. The article connects this myth to other mythical episodes, such as the myths of the Bull of Heaven, Anzu, and Atra-ḫasīs. The analysis of these materials leads to the conclusion that the playing of the kettledrum during the performance of ancient Mesopotamian prayers symbolized the beating heart of the deities to whom the prayers were addressed.

鼓,心,公牛和死神:古代美索不达米亚凯特勒德鲁姆神学

这篇文章是关于莉莉斯·克鲁德鲁姆神学的,这是古代美索不达米亚寺庙崇拜中伴随祈祷的神学。这篇文章分析了一个礼节,其中壶腹的头部被公牛的皮覆盖着,并且对该礼节进行了古代的评论,这表明古代对该礼节的理解是,它反映了神恩利尔和恩梅沙拉之间在原始战争中的争夺。宇宙法则。这篇文章将这个神话与其他神话情节联系起来,例如天牛,安祖和阿特拉·阿萨斯(Atra-ḫasīs)的神话。对这些材料的分析得出这样的结论,即在进行古代美索不达米亚祈祷的过程中演奏鼓槌就象征了被祈祷的神灵的跳动之心。
