What did the Sumerians believe in which they meant their right to rule was God given?
There is nothing in Sumerian religious writings that says that kings have a 'divine right' to rule. What happened was that in many of the Sumerian earliest settlements, priests were the virtual rulers of a community. Building on that, later Kings still retained an aura of having a direct link to the gods; also, the early Sumerian myths mentioned a long list of equally mythical kings descended from the gods who were said to have ruled for improbably long periods.
From that, it was only a small step to the claim that a King's right to rule was god-given.
