Polytheism in Mesopotamia was a central aspect of the region's religious and cultural beliefs. It revolved around the worship of multiple deities, each associated with various aspects of life and natural forces.
The Mesopotamian pantheon consisted of numerous gods and goddesses, each representing different domains, such as the sky, earth, water, fertility, war, wisdom, and more. The gods were believed to have human-like qualities and emotions, making them relatable to the people.
The gods were organized in a hierarchical structure, with some holding more significant roles and powers than others. At the top of the pantheon was the supreme god, often associated with the sky, who presided over the entire divine assembly.
