Profile

Origin

Eṭemmu is an Akkadian word which refers to spirits of the dead. In Mesopotamian thought, eṭemmu were believed to become restless and wander should a person's body not be buried properly after death or should it be disinterred or destroyed. Such restless eṭemmu may become utukku.[1]

(A-Mode DDS)
出身地:シュメール
供養されなかった死者の魂が変じた人に害をなす悪魔の総称。別名であるエキンドゥは『ギルガメッシュ叙事詩』に記述がみえる。疫病を流行らせ、町中に不和をばらまくといわれる。トルコでは五本の角を持つ巨人として想像され、たくさんの目玉の付いた魔よけにより祓われる。

Nomenclature

The demon's Japanese name, Ekimmu, derives from erroneous 19th-century scholarship.[2][3] This reading was replaced by edimmu in the early 20th century and is now usually read eṭemmu.[4]
