Sin (mythology)
Sin (Akkadian: ) or Nanna (Sumerian: ) was the god of the moon in the Mesopotamian mythology of Akkad, Assyria and Babylonia. Nanna is a Sumerian deity, the son of Enlil and Ninlil, and became identified with Semitic Sin. The two chief seats of Nanna's/Sin's worship were Ur in the south of Mesopotamia and Harran in the north.
== Name ==
The original meaning of the name ''Nanna'' is unknown. The earliest spelling found in Ur and Uruk is DLAK-32.NA (where NA is to be understood as a phonetic complement). The name of Ur, spelled LAK-32.UNUGKI=URIM2KI, is itself derived from the theonym, and means "the abode (UNUG) of Nanna (LAK-32)". He was also the father of Ishkur.
The pre-classical sign LAK-32 later collapses with ŠEŠ (the ideogram for "brother"), and the classical Sumerian spelling is DŠEŠ.KI, with the phonetic reading ''na-an-na''. The technical term for the crescent moon could also refer to the deity, DU4.SAKAR. Later, the name is spelled logographically as DNANNA.
The Semitic moon god Su'en/Sin is in origin a separate deity from Sumerian Nanna, but from the Akkadian Empire period the two undergo syncretization and are identified. The occasional Assyrian spelling of DNANNA-''ar'' D''Su'en-e'' is due to association with Akkadian ''na-an-na-ru'' "illuminator, lamp", an epitheton of the moon god. The name of the Assyrian moon god Su'en''/''Sîn is usually spelled as DEN.ZU, or simply with the numeral 30, DXXX.〔''Reallexikon der Assyriologie'', 1997, ISBN 978-3-11-014809-1, (p.360 )〕
