Nerio - Nugua (7572 words)
In een dag wordt de stad (Eridu?) een vruchtbaar en rijk handelscentrum, met een grote rijkdom aan edelgesteenten en metalen.
De vader van haar dochter Ninsar is Enki, de ambachtsman van de goden; Enlil was de vader van haar zoon Ninurta (ploeg, onweer, overstromingen: functie keien: bezitter van de strijdknots Sjaur, 'die duizenden verplettert').
Enki is achtereenvolgens via een reeks incestueuze samenkomsten vader van de dochters Ninsar (Vrouwe van de groente), Ninkurra (Meesteres van de bergen of vrouw van de vezelige planten), Ninimma (vrouwe vulva: zij komt voor in een latere tekst), Uttu ('spin') (de godin van de weefkunst).
Enki (2777 words)
In the epic Enki and Ninhursag, he and his consort Ninhursag had a daughter Ninsar.
When Ninhursag left him he came upon and then had intercourse with Ninsar (Lady Greenery) who gave birth to Ninkurra (Lady Fruitfulness or Lady Pasture).
A second time, he had intercourse with Ninkurra, who gave birth to Uttu, the spider, the one who maintains interconnectedness of all with all.
