23) are correctly interpreted by Sayce (Hibbert Lectures, p. 382) .
The Babylonian Dibbarra Epic. 29 the time that Marduk overcame Tiamat, the lamentations of Ea ceased, and again, further on, it is said that Marduk, after the contest, presented himself before the deep, the seat of Ea.^ But it is Anu who orders the combat, and accordingly we should expect the hero to present his account to this god. Evidently this addition and change has been made at a time when Marduk was inseparably joined to... Ea as his special messenger, while in the story itself Marduk has taken the place which originally belonged to Bel, who, as already said, is pre-eminently the war- rior of and for the gods. Again, we may further distinguish between redactions of the story in which Bel still occurs by the side of and interchangeably with Marduk, and those in which the latter has completely usurped the r61e of the former, and where, moreover, Anu also disappears to make room for Ea.
This is the case in the fragment No.
