Oannes is a sense of the American Kukulkan(mayan), Quetzalcoatl(aztec) or Viracocha(inca) incarnation of a white bearded teacher from the sea. For the truly clever often these incarnations were repeats of the Revelation 13:11-15 order based on actual often romanticized visits. These visits were often against the will of the visitor. [check out Jeremiahs misfortune at Tahpanhes that lead to the Irish mayan kukulkan as CuCullen or the Welsh LLewellyn(pronounced Kleweklin) in his return from a captivity he was forced into...]

This could have been an interesting site, but so little of it seems completed and it doesn't seem to tie together in any coherent way. Oh well, nice attempt.

Great stumble..Recommended for those, like me, who are students of proto-history.
From the page: "Oannes, according to Sumerian history, introduced written language in the Mesopotamian Valley over 5,000 years ago. Many assume Oannes was merely a myth or legend of the Sumerians, other believe that he visited Earth from an extraterrestrial source, even others believe that he originated in a place like the mythical Atlantis. It is my opinion that, in order to further the goals of this site, Oannes best be considered as a traveler from a pre-existing civilization somewhere on Earth."

Introduction
The history of written language began almost 6,000 years ago in the small villages of Mesopotamia. This first written language was called Cuneiform, depicted in the clay tablet above. According to Sumerian history, legend and myth, a man named Oannes introduced this development in the Mesopotamian Valley over 5,000 years ago. Many assume this character was merely a myth or legend of the Sumerians, other believe that he visited Earth from an extraterrestrial source, even others believe that he originated in the mythical Atlantis. It is my opinion that, in order to further the goals of this site, this man best be considered as a traveler from a pre- existing civilization somewhere on Earth.

From the page: "The first goal of this site is to gather and share information leading to the discovery of the civilization that existed prior to the Sumerians in Mesopotamia wherever that may be on the Earth. The second goal is to reconcile two schools of thought, the evolutionist and the creationist, in order to better study and understand the origins of this pre-existing civilization."
The so-called second goal here totally undermines any point in reading further. For a start I don't think they're "schools of thought" exactly anyway, secondly why bother and thirdly why muddy the waters of whatever it is yr trying to say?
Yr welcome to believe either "school of thought", go ahead, be like Alice or Robert Anton Wilson, seriously, hold impossible contradictory thoughts in mind each day and it will expand yr universe but whatever you do don't try to work out some apparently logical system that enables you to "believe" in them simultaneously. Belief will not serve you, only shackle you.
I am interested in the fish-god tho. he sounds cool but how do i make him compatible with Snoopy? Oh, wait, there's no point.
