Igigi unrest leading to the Zu Incident was just a harbinger of other troubles to come—troubles inherent in long-term interplanetary missions—female companionship was one of the significant problems. There was also trouble among the Earth-based Anunnaki, especially those assigned to mining duties. While the gods, like men, bore the toil and work, there was great toil, and the result was heavy; there was much distress. Despite the absence of men on Earth, the gods toiled as though they were men. Enki and Ninmah achieved that feat, but it was not a story with a happy ending.

Le proteste di fine Ottocento per la vendita della concessione del tabacco a un cittadino inglese, che videro per la prima volta uniti il clero, i mercanti e le donne dell'harem reale? O forse il volto severo dell'ayatollah Khomeini di ritorno a Teheran dopo la rivoluzione del 1979 da cui ebbe origine la Repubblica islamica?
