Ashnan

Ashnan, also known as Ezina or Ezina-Kusu,^[1] was the goddess of grain in Mesopotamia. She and her brother Lahar, both children of Enlil, were created by the gods to provide the Annunaki with food, but when the heavenly creatures were found unable to make use of their products, humankind was created to provide an outlet for their services.^[2]
