Ancient Playing Cards

Product Description

Inspired by Babylon epic poem call “Enuma Elish” that tells the battle between Elder Gods and their leader Marduk, and Ancient ones and the evil creature Tiamat. We created 2 version of the deck, Enuma Elder & Enuma Ancient. The Deck use a Ugaritic Cuneiform Code for the names and for some graphic elements. Enuma is also inspired by Simon Necromonicon, a grimoire of magic rituals, conjurations & invocations written by an unknown author, with an introduction by a man identified only as “Simon”.

The decks are printed with 2 metallic inks  also in the faces. For the Ancient version, the pips and some elements of illustrations have copper & silver metallic inks.
