Historical Background
In Akkadian mythology, Humbaba (Assyrian spelling) or Huwawa (Babylonian), was a monstrous giant of immemorial age raised by Utu, the Sun. Humbaba/Huwawa was also the guardian of the Cedar Forest where the gods lived, by the will of the god Enlil, who "assigned Humbaba as a terror to human beings".
