Zababa/ΛzΙΛbΙΛbΙΛ/ (Sumerian: πππ·π· dza-ba4-ba4) was the tutelary deity of the city of Kish in ancient Mesopotamia. He was a war god.[1] While he was regarded as similar to Ninurta and Nergal, he was never fully conflated with them. His worship is attested from between the Early Dynastic to the Achaemenid periods, with the Old Babylonian kings being particularly devoted to him. Starting with the Old Babylonian period, he was regarded as married to the goddess Bau.
