rightful heir. This was later to prove a bitter source of rivalry between the descendents of the two
half brothers.
During Anu’s visit it was decided to increase the gold mining operations so Anu and the two
half-brothers drew lots for control of the coveted Persian Gulf operation. After the draw it was
decided that Anu was to remain ruling on Nibiru, Enlil was placed in charge of the Gulf facility
while Ea was sent to a new southern land called the Abzu to commence mining operations in a
new location (The Abzu is often referred to in mythology as ‘the Underworld’ or as ‘Hades’ in
biblical references but which in fact was, according to the texts, a settlement in Southern Africa).
Ea was also given a new title: “Enki’ – ‘Lord Earth’ signified by the symbol of the Serpent and
basically meaning, one who has great knowledge of the secrets of the earth, literally, “He Who
Solves Secrets” or “He Who Knows Metals”
Enki’s younger half-brother Enlil, the legal heir of Anu, was made the true ruler of Earth and
placed in control of the operations at Eridu and received the title ‘Lord of the Command’.
It is mentioned in the texts that on this particular occasion, before Anu’s visit was concluded
and he departed from Earth to return to Nibiru, he was again challenged by Alalu who declared
Anu to be a usurper. Again they removed their attire and wrestled, oiled and naked and again Anu
won the match but so distraught was Alalu that when the fight had ended and Anu had been
declared the rightful victor, he set upon his half-brother and ‘bit his manhood off’ and swallowed
it, injuring Anu greatly but also sealing his own fate.
With the phallus of Anu burning in his stomach horribly, slowly poisoning him he was brought
before the Seven-Who-Judge and by them was banished to die alone on Lahmu (Mars), though to
this end he was accompanied by one faithful servant called Anzu, (possibly himself a grandson of
Alalu’s) who wished to provide the once Nibirian King a fitting burial and in so doing have his
own deeds remembered for all time.
During that time the climate on Earth began to mellow into something more comfortable for
the Anunnaki and more arrived on Earth to help obtain the much needed gold. One of the new
arrivals was Enki’s half-sister ‘Ninmah’ who was also a medical officer and geneticist. While on
the journey from Nibiru to Earth Ninmah stopped on Lahmu to see what had become of Alalu and
Anzu. The texts describe Lahmu as having ice caps at both poles and as being of ‘reddish hue’
with lakes and water fit to drink but lacking in sufficient atmosphere for breathing without the aid
of the ‘Eagle Masks’. Alalu was long dead but Ninmah was able to revive Anzu who told her he
had placed Alalu’s body in a cave beneath a great mountain that arose beside a lake nearby.
Sumerian tablets tell us that when the party left Lahmu they used weapons of power to carve
the great mountain beneath which Alalu was buried into his image.. The texts say that the image
was of his face “looking skyward towards Nibiru and Earth, whose gold he discovered” and that
they carved the monument of Alalu wearing the ‘Eagle-Mask’ but with his face uncovered.
The Sumerian texts have here quite accurately described Mars including its polar ice cap
which, science has shown, is indeed frozen water and have mentioned the existence of the bizarre
and very enigmatic ‘face on Mars’. The question is: How on Earth could they possibly know
about any of that?
Soon, with the arrival of a party of 300 more Anunnaki, the gold mining operations on earth
were running smoothly again. The gold bearing ores were being steadily shipped from Africa (the
Abzu) to the Gulf to be refined, then sent up to a way station that had been established on Lahmu
near to the tomb of Alalu. From there refined gold was shipped to Nibiru in bulk via spacecraft
that would periodically arrive. Texts inform us that the Anunnaki that were in command of the
way station were named the ‘Igigi’ (later to become the biblical Nephilim) and that by this time
the Anunnaki had also set up a total of seven vital operations centers in the Persian Gulf region to
deal with the mammoth task of coordinating the procedures and exporting the refined ores. These
control settlements included a spaceport at ‘SIP.PAR’, a control center at ‘NIP.PUR’, a medical
center at ‘E.DIN’ and a Metallurgical center at ‘SHUR.AP.PAK’.
