[edit]The Sumerian/Mesopotamian goddess these sources are talking about is today known as Ereshkigal, not as Allat. 2 of the 3 sources are from the 19th century. And the third source doesn't contain the story or the identification as a Goddess of the underworld, rather it talks about the completely different Arabic heavenly mother goddess Allāt and adds some dubious identifications with little-known Mesopotamian deities ("'Ellat' in Sumer": you can't even write such a name in Sumerian cuneiform). Even the term "Chaldean" as used here instead of "Babylonian" or "Mesopotamian" is totally outdated and belongs to 19th century practice.--91.148.159.4 (talk) 14:47, 25 December 2009 (UTC)
Same Article
[edit]Is this article the same as Allāt? Perhaps it could be redirected or merged. 119.74.234.14 (talk) 15:23, 1 November 2010 (UTC)
