Personal information
Siblings"Divine Seven or Elam" or Sebitti (in Mesopotamia)

Narundi (𒀭𒈾𒊒𒋾 dna-ru-ti) or Narunde[2] was an Elamite goddess worshiped in Susa. She is attested there roughly between 2250 BCE and 1800 BCE. Multiple inscriptions mention her, and it assumed she was a popular deity at the time. In later periods, she occurs exclusively in Mesopotamia, where she played a role in apotropaic rituals in association with the Sebitti. Many attestations are available from late Assyrian sources, but it is not certain if they should be regarded as an indication of continuous worship.
