I really like this depiction of
Enki and Ninhursag
"Modern depiction of the water god Enki and the earth goddess Ninhursag (also called Ninmah). In the Sumerian creation myth, Enki’s mother Nammu created humanity on her own, but when Enki and Ninhursag did it individually they created flawed humans and creatures. Nammu convinced the two to work together and they created a perfect human in both appearance and job role. However, Enki and Ninhursag were forever seen as rivals." ~Hasmonean

Enki speaks to his wife;
> “When Utu steps up into heaven, fresh waters shall run out of the ground for you from the standing vessels (?) on Ezen’s (?) shore, from Nanna’s radiant high temple, from the mouth of the waters running underground.”

Who is Ninḫursaĝ?
"Ninḫursaĝ was the ancient Sumerian mother goddess of the mountains, and one of the seven great deities of Sumer. She is principally a fertility goddess. Temple hymn sources identify her as the "true and great lady of heaven" and kings of Sumer were "nourished by Ninhursag's milk". Sometimes her hair is depicted in an omega shape and at times she wears a horned head-dress and tiered skirt, often with bow cases at her shoulders. Frequently she carries a mace or baton surmounted by an omega motif or a derivation, sometimes accompanied by a lion cub on a leash. She is the tutelary deity to several Sumerian leaders." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ninhursag
