A class of younger heavenly beings in ancient Mesopotamian myth, the Igigi are attested chiefly as a subordinate, laboring cohort of gods contrasted with the higher-ranking Anunnaki; in the Atrahasis narrative they perform manual tasks for senior deities and at one point rebel from forced toil. The name is attested in Sumerian orthography (i-gi4-gi4, later í-gì-gì) and its ultimate lexical origin is unknown, though scribal spellings invite numerical wordplay.
