SUMER civilisation started around 3700 B.C., exactly when ANTARES crossed the celestial equator from north to south declination...moving Iinto the unconscious
..so i searched for a connection between SUMER and ANTARES
In Sumerian tradition Antares was not only seen as GABA.GIR.TAB, the breast of the scorpion but also as a deity called Lisi. The star was originally representing a goddess who was later redefined as a male god. Lisi was closely related to fire and the brazier, the cuneiform name was written with the signs for brazier and red. The male god’s name bears epithets like ‘he who burns with fire’ and ‘he who burns an offering’. It is also very interesting that the name Lisi was used as a generic title for ‘lamenting goddesses’ (compare Gavin White, Babylonian Star-lore).
clearly some special awareness of this, then east rising red star
