Anu District, Ancient Uruk, Warka, Iraq
The Anu District is one of the two Districts in the city of Uruk. The Anu District can also be commonly referred as “Kullab”. It was dedicated and named after “Anu”, the sky-god (Complex Religion). The Eanna District is dedicated to his daughter, Inanna, the goddess of love and war. The Anu District does not consist of as many buildings as within the Eanna District, possibly because of Inanna’s growth in popularity. The Anu District was clearly previously developed before the Eanna District.
