Mesopotamians were polytheists, believing in various gods. The chief god was Asher, hence being called Assyrian. They also worshiped Ishtar, the goddess of love and war--predecessor of later Aphrodite and Venus. These two gods were the main gods of the region, but had alter their names throughout the years. That's what I can help you with, being Assyrian--hope I helped!
