What did the Mesopotamians believe the afterlife would be like?

Early Mesopotamians conceptualized the universe as a sphere, one half occupied by the living, the other by the dead. Deities ruled both realms-Ereshkigal was queen of the Underworld and Nergal her consort. Other deities served at their court and gates through which the sun and moon could pass linked the two worlds together.Graves were thought to provide access to the Underworld. At death, the spirit (Sumerian gidim) traveled to the Underworld, where conditions were dismal. The dead thirsted and ate dust. It was the responsibility of the living to provide sustenance for dead relatives.[stextbox id="grey"]The wealth of objects found in Ur's tombs and death pits may have been gifts for Underworld deities."The Death of Urnamma," a Sumerian literary text, describes a Mesopotamian king's journey to the Underworld. First, he offered gifts to its gatekeepers. He then prepared a banquet because he knew the Underworld's food was "bitter" and its water "brackish." He presented gifts to the Underworld deities, giving vessels and garments to Ereshkigal and weapons to Nergal. Urnamma was then seated on a platform and a dwelling prepared for him. Finally, Ereshkigal assigned him rule over soldiers killed in battle and convicted criminals.

Which was the first religion to teach of the place called hell?

A:The concept of hell as a place of punishment first appears in the Zoroastrian religion of the ancient Persians. This appears to have been passed on to the Jews during the Babylonian Exile, then from the Jews to the Christians and then Islam. In the meantime, Judaism moved on and abandoned the concept, so that most Jews no longer believe in a hell where the unrighteous are punished for their sins.
