fun fact: although shamash is a sun and light deity, he is also considered an underworld god, and serves the queen of the dead, erishkigal, as a judge in her court.
Shemesh is also the hebrew word for sun.
and shamhurish is the name for a mythical jinn king from pre islamic arabian folklore, who was also a judge.
