She reconstructs the historical development of the Anu cult, its underlying theology, and its daily rites of worship, with a particular focus on the yearly nocturnal fire ceremony at the Anu temple, the Bit Res. Providing the first in-depth analysis of the ceremony, Julia Krul convincingly identifies it as a seasonal renewal festival with an important exorcistic component, but also as a reinforcement of local hierarchical relationships and the elite status of the Anu priesthood"- -|cProvided by publisher. 588 0 Print version record and CIP data provided by publisher; resource not viewed. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Anu (Assyro-Babylonian deity)|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85005811 650 0 Assyro-Babylonian cults.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85008836 650 0 Rites and ceremonies|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85114211|zIraq|zErech (Extinct city)|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85044578-781 650 7 Anu (Assyro-Babylonian deity)|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/810916 650 7 Assyro-Babylonian cults.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/819246 650 7 Rites and ceremonies.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1098216 651 0 Erech (Extinct city)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85044578|xReligious life and customs.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh00007603 651 7 Iraq|zErech (Extinct city)|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1896941 655 4 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aKrul, Julia.|tRevival of the Anu cult and the nocturnal fire ceremony at late Babylonian Uruk. |dLeiden ; Boston, MA : Brill, [2018]|z9789004364936 |w(DLC) 2018003681 830 0 Culture and history of the ancient Near East ;|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n99265956|vv. 95. 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1845139|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
