Tummal

Tummal (Tum-ma-alki or Tum-alki) was an ancient Near East cult site of the goddess Ninlil, as Egi-Tummal (Lady of Tummal), currently unlocated but known to be in the vicinity of Nippur and Drehem. E-Tummal (House of Tummal) (also E-kiur) was the temple to Ninlil located there. Texts from Drehem indicate that monthly lustrations, with animal offerings, for the goddess Nintinugga were being conducted at the temple of Ninlil in Tummal.
