Mesopotamian Gods

• There were hundreds of gods who were responsible
  for everything in the world, from rivers and
  trees to making bread and pottery.
• Each city was protected by its own special god or
  goddess and their family. Large temples were
  built in the centre of the city for these gods to
  live in. Priests looked after the gods with
  special rituals. There were also smaller temples
  throughout the city where ordinary people could
  make offerings.
