[view source]Cultural Context
Dumuzi (also Tammuz) was a Sumerian shepherd god and consort of the goddess Inanna. After Inanna's descent to the underworld, Dumuzi was taken as her substitute — spending half the year in the land of the dead, which the Sumerians used to explain the dry season. The ram is the traditional symbol of Aries.
