Goddess Tiamat Necklace represent an ambivalent deity who played a pivotal role in ancient Mesopotamia’s creation myth. She was the essence of the primordial sea, which gave birth to the first dynasty of gods. Tiamat is eventually vanquished by Marduk, Babylon’s patron deity. Tiamat is traditionally assumed to have taken the appearance of a dragon, yet no picture from Mesopotamian antiquity has been positively recognized as showing this goddess.
