Hymn to Nisaba: A Praise Song for the Sumerian Goddess of Writing

Summary by worldhistory.org
The Hymn to Nisaba is a devotional piece, which names the attributes of the deity while giving thanks for the gifts they give to humanity. Nisaba was the spark of inspiration that allowed a scribe to create any written work, and the act of writing seems to have been the primary form of worship for Nisaba. It is most likely that the hymn to her was sung in one of her sanctuaries, which were attached to libraries and scribal houses.
