Akhkhazu
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Akhkhazu, also known as Ahhazu, is a female demon of jaundice from the Akkadic mythology that was later adopted by Babylonian mythology. Her Sumerian name is Dimme-kur. She is also called "the seizer". She brings fever and plagues and is a member of a trio of female demons (Labasu, Labartu, Akhkhazu).[1] Despite the fact the word "Akhkhazu" has a male gender, Akhkazu is often described as having a female nature.
