Mistaken for a Deity

Inan, an archaeology student, arrived in the Mesopotamian plains in 7000 B.C. Upon his arrival, the Sumerian villagers mistook him for a god. At that time, the cradle of civilization in the Fertile Crescent was still a wild and barren land, where floods raged unchecked, ferocious beasts roamed freely, and humans struggled to survive; Inan: I've heard that a great civilization, one that will be remembered by all, is set to emerge here. Sumerian villagers: What is civilization? Can you eat it? Inan: Later, the banks of the Euphrates were completely transformed-waves of wheat rolled across the land, produce piled up like mountains, and roads and trade networks spread far and wide; Tall, fortified cities rose, and one world-renowned marvel after another sprang from the earth; as long as Enan was there, there was no famine or enslavement, no war or disaster; and so, Enan truly became the great deity in people's hearts. *Enan looked at the man beside her: "Actually, I'm not a god!" The man smiled warmly: "If you say you're not, then you're not, my divine lord."*
