Goddess Nammu
Nammu: Sumerian goddess of creation.
Nammu is the mother of heaven, earth, and the sea, having created the cosmos on her alone without the help of a spouse.
She is the life-giving water that nourishes both humans and
gods, and she is accompanied by seven other goddesses who serve as her
handmaidens.
Goddess Ilmatar Or Luonnotar
Ilmatar, also known as Luonnotar, is a Finnish creator goddess.
Ilmatar created the world out of three duck eggs that hatched and gave birth to the earth, sky, and agriculture.
Ilmatar drew forth fresh spring water and sowed seeds so
that the soil would prosper when the yolks of the eggs merged to produce the
sun.
The Daughter of Nature is how she is referred to.
