Tashmetum (ð’€ð’Œ¨ð’ˆ¨ð’Œˆ, dtaÅ¡-me-tum, TaÅ¡mÄ“tum[1]) was a Mesopotamian goddess. Her character is poorly understood, and she is best attested as the spouse of Nabu, though they only came to be associated with each other in the eighteenth century BCE. She was worshiped in Assyria as early as in the nineteenth century BCE, and reached Babylonia in the Old Babylonian period. Sources from the first millennium BCE indicate she was venerated alongside Nabu in cities such as Borsippa and Kalhu.
