Who's Enki?

[109]

I am the lord of the Land,
I am the GUGAL of the chieftans, I am the father of all the lands,
I am the ‘big brother' of the gods, I am he who brings full prosperity,
I am the record keeper of heaven and earth,
I am the ear and the mind of all the lands,
I am he who directs justice with the king An on An's dais,
I am he who decrees the fates with Enlil in the ‘mountain of wisdom,'
He placed in my hand the decreeing of the fates of the ‘place where the sun rises,'
I am he to whom Nintu pays due homage,
I am he who has been called a good name by Ninhursag,
I am the leader of the Anunnaki,
I am he who has been born as the first son of the holy An.

The question is: What is GUGAL?
