    Some claim that the Sumerian Suen, is the crescent moon, which is seen in Sumerian é-u₄-7: first crescent moon ('house' + 'day 7').    Note the similarity to the moon god Sin.    Unrelated but, similiar is the Sumerian silig_3,4: sin.    Bull god and moon god Nanna were prevalent in Ur.    Ur (modern Tell al-Muqayyar) was a Sumerian city in southern Mesopotamia established early in the Ubaid period (c. 4000 B.C.).    The city was the primary center for the worship of the Moon god, Nanna (Sin), and is home to a magnificent ziggurat built for the purpose of his adoration.
