Myth and History
Who was Enki in Sumerian mythology?
Behind the Sumerian god of waters and wisdom, the Urantia Book places a real leader: Van, who stayed loyal during the planetary rebellion and was sustained by the tree of life for over one hundred and fifty thousand years. A figure like that is exactly what a civilization deifies.
In the book's own words
Van was left on Urantia until the time of Adam, remaining as titular head of all superhuman personalities functioning on the planet. He and Amadon were sustained by the technique of the tree of life in conjunction with the specialized life ministry of the Melchizedeks for over one hundred and fifty thousand years.
