Baalat

Baalat was a prominent goddess worshipped in ancient Mesopotamia, particularly as a goddess of fertility, marriage, and motherhood. Her name means "Lady" or "Mistress" in the local languages. Often associated with the city of Mari, Baalat was seen as a nurturing and protective deity who cared for families and agricultural fertility. As part of a broader pantheon, she played a vital role in religious rituals and community life, symbolizing abundance, life's continuity, and divine authority over natural and social aspects of life.
