'''Enûma Elish''' merupakan mitologi penciptaan [[Babilonia]] yang ditemukan oleh [[Austen Henry Layard]] pada tahun 1849 dalam bentuk terpisah-pisah di reruntuhan [[perpustakaan Ashurbanipal]] di [[Niniwe]], [[Mosul]], [[Irak]], dan dipublikasikan oleh Assyriologist bernama George Smith tahun 1876.
''Enûma Elish'' terdiri dari seribu baris dan dicatat dalam bahasa Babilonia kuno pada tujuh ''clay tablets'' yang masing-masing berisi antara 115 sampai 170 baris teks.
Most of Tablet V has never been recovered, but aside from this [[Lacuna (manuscripts)|lacuna]], the text is almost complete. A duplicate copy of Tablet V has been found in [[Sultantepe]], ancient [[Huzirina]], located near the modern town of [[Şanlıurfa]] in [[Turkey]].
Baris 41:
The epic names two primeval gods: [[Abzu|Apsû]] (or Abzu) and [[Tiamat]]. Several other gods are created (Ea and his brothers) who reside in Tiamat's vast body. They make so much noise that the babel or noise annoys Tiamat and Apsû greatly. Apsû wishes to kill the young gods, but Tiamat disagrees. The vizier, Mummu, agrees with Apsû's plan to destroy them. Tiamat, in order to stop this from occurring, warns Ea ([[Nudimmud]]), the most powerful of the gods. Ea uses magic to put Apsû into a coma, then kills him, and shuts Mummu out. Ea then becomes the chief god, and along with his consort [[Damgalnuna|Damkina]], has a son, [[Marduk]], greater still than himself. Marduk is given wind to play with and he uses the wind to make dust storms and tornadoes. This disrupts Tiamat's great body and causes the gods still residing inside her to be unable to sleep.
They persuade Tiamat to take revenge for the death of her husband, Apsû. Her power grows, and some of the gods join her. She creates 11 monsters to help her win the battle and elevates [[Kingu]], her new husband, to "supreme dominion." A lengthy description of the other gods' inability to deal with the threat follows. Marduk offers to save the gods if he is appointed as their leader and allowed to remain so even after the threat passes. When the gods agree to Marduk's conditions he is selected as their champion against Tiamat, and becomes very powerful. Marduk challenges Tiamat to combat and destroys her. He then rips her corpse into two halves with which he fashions the earth and the skies. Marduk then creates the calendar, organizes the planets, stars and regulates the moon, sun, and weather.
