| | Sumerian Mythology: Chapter III. Myths of Kur |
 | | Kur thus cosmically conceived is the empty space between the earth's crust and the primeval sea. |
 | | This Kur represents, therefore, an inimical land, and is not to be identified with the cosmic Kur of the Ninurta and Enki versions. |
 | | While the meaning of her speech is at times difficult to penetrate, Inanna's demand is clear; unless Kur, which seems quite unaware of, or at least oblivious to, her might and power, becomes duly submissive and is ready to glorify her virtues, she will do violence to the monster. |
