Between approximately 445,000 to 360,000 years ago, Anu arrived on Earth and was briefed on the current gold mining operational status that his son Enki was spearheading. A question of which brother should handle the mining operation in Africa and which would head up the command headquarters in Mesopotamia, specifically in Nippur, was at issue. According to the Atrahasis account, Anu, Enlil, and Enki drew lots to determine which mission each would pursue separately, creating space between the two half-brothers that were often at odds. Enki was the first born son to Anu and Antu. Enlil was, according to the Sumerian accounts, the rightful heir. Based on Niburian inheritance rules, the rightful heir is designated as the offspring of the male and his half-sister. The reason this was done by the Anunnaki was rooted in science. The female contribution to the genetic material includes mitochondrial DNA which the male does not. This predisposes the genetic blood line toward the maternal source.
Following the drawing of lots, Enlil was assigned to the Mesopotamian region where he would eventually be served by Terah and his son Abram in the temple at Ur. Enki was assigned to the Abzu (Africa) to speed up the gold mining operation badly needed to repair the Niburian degenerating atmosphere. Anu returned to Nibiru to run the kingship back on the home planet. Inanna, Anu’s favorite granddaughter, was given the Indus Valley region, and the Sinai Peninsula was retained for use by the Anunnaki. The division took place and was finalized in the calendar year 3760 BCE.
Approximately 415,000 years ago, Enki’s half-sister Ninharsag, a medical officer, traveled to Earth and established her medical center at Shuruppak. Her mission was to provide health care support for the space traveling Niburian astronauts. There were complaints from the Anunnaki about noticeable aging effects that were not seen on Nibiru. It was postulated that the more rapid circuits they were experiencing on Earth versus Nibiru with a much slower circuit, namely a 3,600 year shar.

Several cities were established in Sumeria, augmenting the existing Eridu built by Enki upon his prior arrival. These cities were designed to provide specific functions related to the mining operation and subsequent ore processing as well as the infrastructure needed to remain in communications with Nibiru [13]. Table 2 depicts the cities and their respective functions. Figure 3 shows a relational city map.

As told in the Atrahasis, approximately 300,000 years ago in Enki’s domain in Southern Africa, the Anunnaki Council of 12 met to discuss how to increase gold production rates. Background information from the account sets the scene for the ancient astronaut’s noteworthy recorded historical event. The higher ranking members of the Anunnaki Council, purportedly Enki himself, brought several subservient workers to help with establishing the gold mining outpost on Earth. The Lost Book of Enoch refers to them as Watchers [36], but the Atrahasis calls the miners Igigi. They were apparently very advanced relative to humans, although designated the working class agent. Fig 3 depicts archeological sites in Mesopotamia.
Difficult labor-intensive tasks were assigned to the Igigi, to include dredging rivers, digging and constructing aqua ducts, building cities and last, but not least, mining gold-bearing ore in Southern Africa. Apparently, they were not supplied with female companions during their alien deployment to Earth mining over a long period of time, measured in Niburian orbit lengths as a shar equaling 3,600 Earth years. What follows is an excerpt from the first tablet from the Atrahasis, the Old Babylonian Version (OBV) as translated by Stephanie Dalley in her Oxford World’s Classics book entitled Myths From Mesopotamia: Creation, the Flood, Gilgamesh, and Others, [37, pps. 9-10]..
Atrahasis Tablet 1 [37, pg. 9]
When the gods instead of man
Did the work, bore the loads,
The gods’ load was too great,
The work too hard, the trouble too much,
The great Anunnaki made the Igigi
Carry the workload sevenfold.
Anu their father was king,
Their counselor warrior Ellil,
Their chamberlain was Ninurta,
Their canal-controller Ennugi.
They took the box of lots…,
Cast the lots; the gods made the division.
Anu went up to the sky,
And Ellil took the earth for his people.
The bolt which bars the sea
Was assigned to far-sighted Enki.
When Anu had gone up the sky,
And the gods of the Apsu had gone below,
The Anunnaki of the sky
Made the Igigi bear the workload.
The gods had to dig out canals,
Had to clear channels, the lifelines of the land,
The Igigi had to dig out canals,
Had to clear channels, the lifelines of the land.
The gods dug out the Tigris river bed
And then dug out the Euphrates….
In the deep they set up
The Apsu of the land
Inside it raised its top
Of all the mountains
They were counting the years of loads;
For 3,600 years they bore the excess,
Hard work, night and day.
They groaned and blamed each other.
Grumbled over the masses of excavated soil.
“Let us confront the chamberlains,
And get him to relieve us of our hard work!”
With mutiny in the air, summarizing the key points of the first tablet, the Igigi surround Enlil’s encampment (Ellil in the OBV translation) and demand to be relieved of their excessive work load. Anu, Enlil and Enki’s father on Nibiru is summoned for his advice and counsel. Enki is also invited to help to come up with a resolution to the unrest in the mines. The Igigi are temporarily appeased with promises of work relief while the Anunnaki Council meets to discuss the rioting Igigi gold miners. Enki and Ninharsag, his half-sister and Chief Medical Officer, team up to develop a genetic hybrid being, a primitive worker, to replace the Igigi gold diggers. Next chapter the evidence supporting the Anunnaki on earth is explored with the reader.
