She had the head of a lion, the teeth of a donkey, and the talons of a monstrous bird. She nursed a dog and a pig at her own breast, rode a donkey through the rivers of the underworld, and according to the people of ancient Mesopotamia, she came for your children in the dark. This October, we meet Lamashtu: a figure so feared that an entire industry of amulets, incantations, and household exorcisms grew up around keeping her away from newborns and their mothers. We'll dig into who she really was not quite a demon, not quite a goddess, something ancient Mesopotamians themselves struggled to categorize and what four thousand years of terrified parents can tell us about how a civilization confronted the fragility of new life.
