In ancient Mesopotamia, ceremonies were integral to religious and social life, often conducted to honor the gods, celebrate agricultural cycles, or mark significant events. Rituals included offerings, prayers, and sacrifices, performed by priests in temples, which were believed to ensure divine favor and prosperity. Festivals, such as the New Year celebration (Akitu), involved processions, music, and feasting to reaffirm the community's relationship with the divine. These ceremonies reinforced social order, cultural identity, and the connection between the people and their deities.
