There are several forms of divination in Mesopotamia, Smoke divination, lists of portends, oneromancy, animal divination, and in later times astrology. The Sumerians used these forms of divination in conjunction. That is to say that if five forms of divination said one thing and two said another that they would put more weight with the five and gain added details from the additional forms of divination.
We have many of the tools that the ancient Mesopotamians used. We have a liver diagram labled with various points of interest. We have several of the lists of portends.
What do any of you know about these divination styles? I know maddness listed one of these lists of portends from the Assyrians for example, but how is this used?
