Does anyone know the name of a demon from Mesopotamian mythology? Or a supernatural spirit or similar, preferably something evil or tricky? Maybe a deity?

The older it is the better, and nothing later than approx. 1000 BC.

Thanks for any answers. If there will be no answers, no problem anyway, because I get to start the first thread in this subsection

Kur (dragon, underworld, vs hero Ninurta), Imdugud/Anzu(d)/Zu (storm bird), Ztak/Itak/Isum, 7 Maskim / Rabisu, Huwawa/Humbaba, Labbu, Tiamat, Pazuzu, Shutu (south wind), Lamastu, Lilitu/Lilith (night incubus), udug/utukku, galla.

Simon's Necronomicon might have some.

NZ's mandatory fluoridation is not fair because it only forces it on the disadvantaged/some and not on the advantaged/everyone.
