Zecharia Sitchen, renowned for his work on translating Sumerian Tablets, has written much about the Annunaki-family and the way they would have interacted with humanity based on these Sumerian tablets. Although the idea of 'some kinds of extraterrestrials' or 'gods' (who looked human except that they were larger) creating human beings is not really popular in the scientific community, it was very likely that that was exactly what was noted down by the Sumerians some 4,000 to 5,000 years ago.
On the 'Enki and Enlil page' you can read more about two famous sons of Anu, the leader or father of the Annunaki. On this page you can read more about two other members of the Annunaki family who according to many channeled sources are a renegade family from the Pleiades. The two beings I'm referring to are Merduk (or Marduk) and Innana (or Inanna).
Before we turn to the channeled material received through Karen Danrich (see Guidelines to Karen Danrich material for more information) I would like to tell you a bit about what Zecharia Sitchen has to say about these two Annanuki. Let's start with Marduk, as he is called by Sitchen. In his first book, The Twelfth Planet (pocket version by Avon), Sitchen mentions Marduk often, on pages 109-111, he lets us know that Marduk stands for "son of the pure mound", and that Marduk is Enki's firstborn by his wife DAM.KI.NA. "At the beginning of the second millenium B.C. Marduk was elevated in Babylon to the status of national god of Sumer and Akkad. Marduk was proclaimed King of the Gods, replacing Enlil, and the other gods were requierd to pledge allegiance to him and to come to reside in Babylon, were there activities could easily be supervised".
Sitchen goes on and says that many important texts were rewritten by the Babylonians and altered so as to make Marduk appear as the Lord of Heavens, the Creator, the Benefactor, the Hero, instead of Anu or Enlil or even Ninurta.
For the sake of this article, I guess this is enough an introduction as far as Marduk is concerned, the son of Enki and revered as a God by the Babylonians who have probably altered ancient texts to make Marduk look the mightiest of all Annunaki.
Let's continue with Inanna. If Marduk was the son of Enki, was Inanna, perhaps the daughter of Enlil? Well, almost. Inanna is the daughter of Nanna (Akkadian/Semitic name was Sin) and Nanna is the firstborn of Enlil by his official consort Ninlil. (p.111-112, Twelfth Planet) This makes Inanna the granddaughter of Enlil. Inanna had a twin brother who was called Utu. Inanna is also known by the Akkadian name Ishtar. On page 128 we can read: "In a text dealing with the rape of Inanna/Ishtar by an unidentified person, he justifies his deed thus:
One day my Queen,
A bit further Inanna speaks of her queen status herself:
After crossing heaven, crossing earth - Inanna,
After crossing heaven, corssing earth -
After crossing Elam and Shubur After crossing...
The hierodule approached weary, fell asleep.
I saw her from the edge of my garden;
Kissed her, copulated with her
Me, from my temple
they caused me to fly;
A Queen am I whom, from my city,
like a bird they caused to fly. (p.129)
Well, if you want to know more about Marduk and Inanna there's much to be read about them in the profound work of Zecharia Sitchen. Well, since you are presently visiting a site which is dedicated to the research of channeled material, it is time to present some channeled material about Marduk and Inanna. Perhaps you have noticed the purple koala background, which is an indicator that the channeled material presented at the page only stems from the extensive Danrich material.
So, where to start? The first thing that struck me was that the spelling of both names were different in the Danrich material. Whereas Sitchen (and I think the rest of the world) speaks of Marduk and Inanna, the sources which are channeled through Karen Danrich consistently speak of MErduk and INNana (notice the E and the NN). Since they are Annunaki and quite influential in both the standard scientific material and in the channeled Danrich material I think it is a safe guess to presume them to be talking about the same beings: two members of the Anu-family. I use both spellings arbitrarily in this text.
In April 2001 Merduk and Innana are mentioned for the first time in an article by the buffalo species through Karen Danrich. We come across a few themes that are recurrent in many articles that follow:
KEY PLAYERS IN EARTH’S HISTORY IN REVIEW
Sirian Seeded Race
The cast of characters upon Earth at cause of creating the self-perpetuating thought-form comes from many places. Such characters are related to the seeded red race that came to Earth 50,000 years ago from Sirius. Those related to the red race in present day terms are known as Eskimos, Native Americans, Aborigines, Africans, Polynesians, Tibetans and South American Indians. The red race has had the same occurrence repeat multiple times in history. Each of these races were once overrun by the "white" Annanuki and their scientists, their land stripped, and often they were slaughtered to retain the dominion of the Annanuki over Earth. Again and again the white race has repeated the same pattern to the red in your history, even your current history.
High Priest and Priestess
The red High Priest and Priestess of Earth were those of the seeded red race whom were designed to hold the energy flow between humanity and Earth and at a later point in the lifetime, ascend. In essence, one could think of the High Priest and Priestess as the King and Queen of Earth, whom also had a court of Kings and Queens that were regional and had parallel regional responsibilities. The red race was the guardians of the land and operated in alignment with all other kingdoms to hold the energy flow and sustain Earth’s vibration along with unity in the human dance.
Innana or Aphrodite or Venus
A member of the Annanuki family known as Innana seduced the High Priest. In so doing, Innana accessed through the sexual energy flow all information held by the High Priest and Priestess and stripped it, and altered the course of their lives to one of fatal destruction. The High Priest and Priestess ended up captured and killed by Innana and Merduk whom ceremonially dissected their forms drinking of their blood and eating of their major organs and glands. This was done to obtain a biological understanding of what the High Priest and Priestess knew.
Many other of the Priests and Priestesses holding regional responsibilities were either seduced and/or killed and consumed in a parallel manner to the High Priest and Priestess or King and Queen. It is perhaps where the thought-form of the vampire originally comes from. Each was consumed by the Annanuki for the knowledge that they contained. In the transference of such knowledge, the red race lost their power and ability to overcome the Annanuki and throw them off of Earth.
However, we also point out that Sirius refused to support the red race and come to their defense. It is now understood that there was a treaty between Sirius and the Pleiades to allow for the Pleiadian reign over Earth. There was a deep understanding of betrayal of the red seeded nation by their planet of origin as a result of this outcome. It may be for such reasons that the Priests and Priestesses were unable to prevent the dominion of the Annanuki over their own nations.
Persephone and Merduk or Hades
Persephone was a red woman whom married and mated with Merduk, one brother of the Annanuki. This was an inter-racial marriage that was rejected by the rest of the Annanuki family, much like interracial marriages are rejected to this day in your current dance. Merduk stripped Persephone and the red seeded race of all ancient knowledge through his sexual relationship to her, hoarding it for himself and utilizing it for retention of dominion over Earth and immortality. The red race was intertwined in a common energy flow. It only took only one entry into one red human’s energy field to access the energy flow and knowledge of the entire race. From the point of view of the Great Central Sun, this is a fatal flaw in the nature of energy movement of the human dance in the lower dimensions. Much like dominoes, if one is taken out, so are all, as they are all interconnected without boundaries that are protective in nature.
Innana along with Merduk manipulated in every way possible to retain dominion over Earth, and extend their lives 18,000 years, 16,000 years beyond what any human form was designed to live. These humans along with their relatives stripped Earth and the red race of all knowledge necessary to sustain their immortality. In so doing, all knowledge to fuel human ascension was removed from the seeded race and utilized instead for life extension of the Annanuki.

On the Menstruation/blood page you can read about Pleiadeans (through Barbara Marciniak) who speak of the mystery of blood in relation to knowledge. Since the Annunaki stemmed from the Pleiadeans it might just refer to something similar: blood having powers. So, our 'friends' Merduk and Innana probably introduced the idea of vampires. Boy, we can consider ourselves very lucky to have had such friendly gods looking after us and eating us occasionally...
About four months later, the Great Central Sun had received more insights into the practices of especially Merduk. We can read about the way he got more and more insane. How he evoked fear in many people because his favorite life-extending fluid was human blood, this fear resulted in more genetic decay. We can read more about Persephone and how she was abducted at an early age. We also hear for the first time how both Merduk and Innana ended their lives by committing suicide. Near the end we are introduced to a dodgy deal which Merduk made with Sanat Kamara. To read more about Sanat Kamara and his friends (according to this Danrich material that is of course) click HERE.
Let's read parts of the original text about all that had been discovered in August 2001:
At the time that Merduk and Innana, two members of the Annanuki went insane, they had extended their life 18,000 human years. The life extension practices included not only the sacrifice of the slaves to avoid karmic return, but also the consumption of human blood also known as the "elixir of the gods". Such blood consumption became increasingly impure as more and more of the slave race went into fear from the brutal manner that they were treated, annihilated, or sacrificed. Fear causes genetic changes, and the fear caused the blood of the slaves to change. Over time, the blood no longer supported the Annanuki as it once had in their desire for immortality.
As the blood of the slaves no longer supported their life extension practices, the Annanuki took to hunting the red seeded race for blood. Often such humans were held captive and bled to death over a year period or more. As the red race also went into fear due to such practices and the holographic remembrance, the blood of the red race also altered in biochemical structure. At this juncture, the desire for immortality was so great that Merduk chose to utilize the blood of his own half red half Annanuki offspring.
Many have heard of the myth of Persephone, the goddess of the underworld. Persephone was a red child that was abducted at age 7 and taken to Merduk for blood. He fell in love with Persephone and married her at age 11. They had 8 children over an 800-year period. It was as Persephone caught Merduk killing her own child for blood that she herself went insane and committed suicide by throwing herself into an active volcano. Merduk went on to marry 3 other red females, each abducted at an early age as Persephone. He continued to utilize his own offspring for blood to extend his life. Over time even the blood of his own offspring was too impure to keep his flesh from decaying. It is the decay of the Annanuki that led eventually to their insanity, and their insane warfare upon one another.
Merduk warred upon his sister Innana for over 1000 years. The warfare created greater and greater brutal experiences in the experience of the Annanuki slave race. Such records of brutality were transferred to the dolphins and whales who subsequently again declined in genetic material as the vibrations of pain were so dense for them to hold.
Merduk took to creating a specific set of human slaves bred for warfare. Such slaves were devoid of emotions, had only 1024 strands of DNA and would fight to the finish without complaint. Groups of such slaves were so violent that they pushed the forces of Innana's slaves back to a single region upon Earth currently located in South America. Innana would not surrender, and trapped Merduk in a pyramid threatening to destroy him. Merduk escaped and went off planet in one of his spacecraft.
THE ORIGINS OF SANAT KUMARA AND VYUAMUS
From off of Earth and in his craft, Merduk made a bargain with a soul from the false intervention known as Sanat Kumara. Merduk invited Sanat Kumara to take his place and ensoul Earth in lieu of him. Sanat Kumara agreed, and over a three-day period, Merduk removed his energy from Earth allowing Sanat Kumara to take over. However Merduk also betrayed Sanat Kumara, as it was after the soul change was complete that Merduk exploded two very large nuclear bombs over Earth. The bombs set Earth into a nuclear winter, and succeeded at destroying Innana. Innana retreated to the Pleiades and subsequently committed suicide. Merduk himself went to Orion thereafter and sought medical help for his declining form. None was possible and so he also ended his life in suicide by targeting his own craft at an unknown planet outside of your universe in an explosive crash.

http://www.ascendpress.org/articles/great-cen-sun/Sun5.html
New elements deduced from this article:
The results of the droppings of the greatest nuclear bombs ever were manifold. It created the biggest nuclear winter ever experienced by Earth and a huge fall in consciousness of all species living on Earth. It also invited in the need to eat dead flesh of other beings. You can read more about this aspect on the meat page.
In a Great Central Sun transmission from September 2001 we can read about Merduk, Innana and other Annunaki who felt bored in their non-physical life and together with the false intervention they decided to create some kind of heaven. In order to prevent double texts on this site, you can read the excerpt at this heavenly page. Here I only present the new elements:
In March 2002, the Tao speaks about 12 thought forms from the Annunaki which became global thought forms. In the process of ascension one may wish to become aware of these thought forms and possibly try to transcend them. If you want to read more about the consumption of flesh, click HERE. Below we present a thought form that is related to Innana and one that is related to Merduk:
The Pleiadian thought-form is the result of 12 beliefs that over time and in their reign of dominion also became global thought-form. Such thought-form does not honor, and the Annanuki dance was a direct relationship to their own inherent thought-form of dishonor. As such, it was no wonder that the Annanuki raided earth to a point in which she fell in vibration and consciousness, with her ice shields collapsing becoming your oceans. For the sake of those who are ascending, we would like to explore these 12 thought-forms in greater detail. One may use what is shared to begin to understand how one's own thought-form is related, choosing to transcend such thought-form and infuse the field with more and more of the Language of Light in it's place. In so doing, one will also release the need to harm externally or internally.
...2. APHRODITE/INNANA, Goddess of Love
Thought-form: Shatter or Shattered, Dissect, Consume
The thought-form of shatter or shattered, dissect, and consume causes another to penetrate one's field shattering one apart, or dissecting one into pieces that can then be pulled out of one's field and "consumed" by another. This form of consumption was both physical and energetic for the Annanuki. Records revealed last year both the energetic consumption of the red race for chi along with the physical consumption of several priests and priestesses for their knowledge.
Consumption of flesh was not a part of the original red dance. The red race ate of the fruits of the Garden of Eden, as there were an abundant supply of fruit and vegetables available in a tropical environment that earth was at such a time in her history (approximately 48,000 years ago). As this thought-form became prevalent, the need to consume flesh followed. This occurred as the lush vegetation burnt up in the nuclear annihilation at the end of the war between Innana and Merduk. At such a time, humans resorted to eating of flesh to survive. However humans became so accustomed to this that the consumption of flesh never stopped even when there was adequate food again from vegetable and fruit sources, in particular this occurred for those humans related to the slave race.
Such is the nature of a fall in consciousness, one may not ascend out of the dance unless one so consciously intends it so. Consuming flesh is the result of a fall in consciousness from the nuclear explosions. The slave race that remained were not prepared for evolution, as this is the manner in which they had been constructed in the laboratory, to be of a nature that would not seek to evolve. Alas, such a nature also then was unable to repair a fall in consciousness as it occurred as they lacked the very information that would allow them to repair the DNA and restore their original level of awareness.
The red race however remembered how to repair DNA to a certain degree. Many indigenous cultures as they separated from the white man eliminated the diseases that had occurred in the interactions, ascending out of the fall caused in the dance. Many indigenous cultures also ascended out of the need to consume flesh, and some even ascended into the fourth dimension as recently as 8000 earth years ago (24,000 human years). Such cultures are known today as the Annusassi along with the Incas and the Mayans.
As the red race again interacted with the white race during certain phases of recent history, again the consciousness dropped and disease became prevalent for the red nations. At some point, the current red race lost the remembrance of how to alter the genetics. This lead to disease becoming prevalent therein in most places upon earth, even those cultures with little outside contact with the current human civilization. Ascension is changing this as the records are revealed at last from earth's archives on how to alter the biology through conscious choice.
The red race is ascending and more or less en mass in indigenous cultures. Within your "civilized" cultures, ascension is few and far between with current statistics. Ascension is as low as 1 out of 18 in North America, 1 out of 18 in Europe, 1 out of 12 in South America, 1 out of 8 in Hawaii, 1 out of 6 in Africa, 1 out of 13 in China, and 1 out of 26 in Japan. Why so low in Japan? Many Japanese have dropped below 2 strands of DNA due to the exposure of nuclear energy in Nagasaki and Hiroshima. There is no pathway at this time from 1.5 strands to ascend. On the other hand in indigenous tribes global wide the statistics show that 1 out of 4 or 5 are ascending at this time.
3. MERDUK/ HADES, God of the Underworld
Thought-form: Experimentation, Cut, Mutilate or Torture, Science
The thought-form of experimentation, cut, mutilate or torture, along with science causes another to be able to cut one apart or experiment upon one's embodiment or field, mutilating and torturing the form by putting one in great pain. Merduk was a master scientist that thrived in his experimentation. Often little concern was given to whether or not the experiments put another or an animal in pain. Such thought-form plays out to this today in the form of torture, imprisonment, or experimentation upon humans or animals. The experimentation by German doctors upon humans during World War II is an example of this thought-form coming to roost in recent times.
Much like a wheel, thought-form cycles through as an energetic dance causing patterns to emerge at particular times in history. One would say that the time of Hitler was the re-emergence of the Merduk- Hades thought-form, perhaps more than any other. Merduk not only experimented heavily upon humans and animals in his scientific experiments, but also was responsible for annihilation of the slaves as they became overpopulated. Auschwitz was an example of this history repeating itself within the related cycle. Merduk also wished to rule the world and conquer all other members of his family in power. This too was mirrored in Hitler in recent times.
Science and the need to experiment come out of a lack of knowing that is innate and biological. If one attunes inward, one can know anything that one so wishes as one's thought-form permits. There is not requirement therefore to experiment upon another to know or understand, only tune inward. One can see in this that the Annanuki were so lost that they only desired to tune outward to know. Although their knowledge extended their lives for upwards of 8000 to 18000 human years, the consequence was the creation of a fall of the consensus reality known as earth. There are dire karmic consequences for the souls and forms involved in such a dance, and they will be working their way out of such karma for eons of time as a result.
http://www.ascendpress.org/articles/transmissions4/Disease.html
NEW MERDUK AND INNANA KARMA REVEALED
Out of the records of Mt. Olympus, another set of karmic cause of disease was revealed as of late. The records revealed how much Merduk hated Innana. He sought a way to destroy her long before the war between them broke out and ended in a nuclear annihilation. Merduk was familiar with holograms and the holographic nature of the human species. Through conscious intent Merduk took the hologram of one of Innana's lovers who was red and related to the God Goddess of the Sun Hologram. He altered the hologram of this particular red human to become outwardly harmful, anchoring 18 different types of diseases that would pass through to Innana through their lovemaking.
Indeed, Innana found herself becoming ill shortly thereafter. However she also had enough awareness to see how it was passing through her beloved. Not only did she end the relationship, but also she passed the disease patterning on to the slave race, which absorbed it in lieu of Innana en mass. This caused the slaves to suddenly develop 18 different types of ailments, including 4 types of cancer of the nervous system, mumps, chicken pox, rubella, hepatitis, herpes, polio, arthritis, heart disease, uterus/ovarian cancer, breast cancer, stomach cancer, tetanus, leprosy and prostate cancer.
The red race also suddenly found itself plagued by these same diseases. Why? A red hologram was altered to bring forth Innana's death through all 18 diseases concurrently by passing through such diseases unto another.
Soon those of the red race engaging with others related to God Goddess of the Sun hologram became ill due to the energetic machinery and violence that flowed through one of their own kind. However the red race remembered how to alter genetics and grid work due to their understanding of ascension. Many tribes of the red race ascended out of the dance of disease subsequently and per the records gathered thus far. Although they ascended out of the disease, the red race could not perceive the original cause of disease, which was an alteration of the holographic dance and planes of reality. As a result, the karma repeated again in later history as the original cause, which was a holographic manipulation, went unperceived. When even a small portion of any karmic cause is not released, the karma remains and then re-enacts itself in one's future ancestry.
Such karma repeated again and again as the white slave race has come into contact with the remains of the red seeded race. Did not the North American Indians die by the thousands from such diseases after the first contact with the white man in recent centuries? Did not the Hawaiians die by the thousands after Captain Cook discovered Hawaii? Did not this also occur to the South American Indians as the Spaniards arrived? Such contact activated ancient karma that the red race had altered the genetics for, but had not cleared the karma of in full. Therefore the karma repeated as before as it had failed to be cleared in full.
Now however most indigenous folk are ascending, and they shall not only ascend out of disease but also out of their subservience to the western culture. They too like Mila and Oa are also releasing their holographic karma in perceiving the original cause so that this dance of disease need not occur again in the future human expression
http://www.ascendpress.org/articles/transmissions4/Disease-Karma.html
On the Reptilians page we can read that Merduk's mother turned out to be Reptilian (March 2003).
