Agasaya is aSemitic war goddess. Her name is thought to translate to "the shrieker", though there is no solid proof of this. Agasaya later got merged intoIshtar, a Babylonian goddess, along with many other goddesses; this is likely due to conquering. Agasaya became the warrior aspect of Ishtar and lived on in history this way.[1] There is also some speculation that Ishtar, and therefore Agasaya, influenced/merged into the EgyptianGoddessAnut. Not much is known about Agasaya but her weapons may have been a bow and arrows and a scimitar.[2]
