“ANSHAR: The Forgotten King of the First Heaven "

Welcome to PANGEA ARCANA, the home of ancient mysteries, forgotten myths, and the hidden origins of our world.

In this episode, we dive deep into the story of Anshar, the Primordial King of the First Heaven in Mesopotamian mythology. Although rarely mentioned outside of scholarly circles, Anshar stands at the foundation of the Mesopotamian cosmic order, representing the earliest structure of the heavens long before the rise of gods like Anu, Enlil, or Marduk.

Who was Anshar?
Why was he considered the embodiment of the entire sky?
How did he influence the creation of the universe in the Enuma Elish, the Babylonian creation epic?
And why did later empires—especially the Assyrians—elevate his name to reinforce divine kingship?

In this video, we explore:

The origins of Anshar from Tiamat and Apsu

His role in the first divine generations

His place in the Enuma Elish creation myth

How he became the divine ancestor of Anu, the supreme sky god

The transformation of Anshar from a cosmic principle to a royal, legitimizing deity

His mysterious presence in ancient god lists and temple traditions

If you are fascinated by world mythology, ancient civilizations, cosmic creation myths, and the hidden roots of human belief systems, this video will take you deep into the forgotten corners of ancient Mesopotamia.
