Belet-Sheri

babylonian goddess, her name means lady of the steppe. She was the wife of the nomad god Amurru. since the babylonians associated the steppe with the Underworld, the goddess was often associated with the realm of the dead, where she functioned as a scriber. Belet-Sheri was identified with the sumerian goddess Geshtinanna.
