Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The sirrush is a creature depicted on the reconstructed Ishtar Gate of the city of Babylon, originally dating to the 6th century B.C. It resembles a scaly dragon with hind legs like an eagle's talons and feline forelegs. It also has a long neck and tail, a horned head, a snakelike tongue and a crest. While not matching any known creature, some argue the sirrush could have been a genuine animal The name "sirrush" is derived from an Akkadian word loosely translated "splendor serpent." Although it is properly transliterated mu¿-¿u¿¿u, early researchers mistakenly read it as sir-ru¿¿u, and this is the rendering most common today. The transliteration mu¿-ru¿¿u is also found, apparently a variant of mu¿-¿u¿¿u.
