Igigi
:''This article is about the Igigi in Mesopotamian mythology. For the article about the Akkadian king "Igigi," see Igigi (Akkadian King).'' Igigi was a term used to refer to the gods of heaven in Sumerian mythology. Though sometimes synonymous with the term "Annunaki," in one myth the Igigi were the younger gods who were servants of the Annunaki, until they rebelled and were replaced by the creation of humans.〔Leick, Gwendolyn: A Dictionary of Ancient Near Eastern Mythology (NY: Routledge, 1998), p. 85〕 == ''Atrahasis'' ==
Sumerian paradise is described as a garden in the myth of ''Atrahasis'' where lower rank deities (the Igigi) are put to work digging a watercourse by the more senior deities (the Anunnaki). The Igigi then rebel against the dictatorship of Enlil, setting fire to their tools and surrounding Enlil's great house by night. On hearing that toil on the irrigation channel is the reason for the disquiet, the Anunnaki council decide to create man to carry out agricultural labour.〔Millard, A.R., (New Babylonian 'Genesis' Story ), p. 8, The Tyndale Biblical Archaeology Lecture, 1966; ''Tyndale Bulletin'' 18, 3-18, 1967.〕
