Manu the Great


Manu the Great was a Chaldean god who "presided over fate".
He is referred to as one of the dii minores, or minor deities, of ancient Chaldea by Lenormant in his 1875 work, Chaldean Magic:
Henry George Tomkins, an Exeter clergyman and member of the Royal Archaeological Society, saw Manu as a possible link to the "sons of Anak", mentioned in the Old Testament:
He is also listed in Gustav Davidson's A Dictionary of Angels. Both Tomkins and Davidson cite only Lenormant for their reference to Manu the Great.
