I am not certain if As Shalla is supposed to mean Shala? or the goddess of grain Ashnan. As for Adrammelech, I can't find anything outside abrahamic demonology and biblical sources for him. And I can't seem to find anything on Anasas nor Nishraeli, but I don't want to assume they don't exist based on that. I mainly used the google search engine and google books as well as scribd to find references, but its not turning up. And absolutely nothing turns up for Nishraeli.

What's with the Bible and Babylon?

I may be mistaken, but Nimrod was not a babylonian (nor sumerian nor assyrian) god, there was a time when they called Gilgamesh "nimrod" but the two are not the same, and Gilgamesh isn't exactly a god, he was a demigod. But if that's who it is referring to, and he counts as a god, then can I just change that to gilgamesh? Then it won't take me to a bible story, and instead to Gilgamesh?

At first I was just going to take issue with Nimrod, but with a closer look there seems to be other issues. I am not just going delete anything unless I understand the reasons better why they were posted. But these deities aren't referenced nor can I find a reference for them: Adramelech As Shalla, the Assyrian goddess of grain Anasas, god of medicine Nishraeli
