Inanna is the Sumerian goddess of sexual love, fertility, and warfare. Alternative Sumerian names include Innin, Ennin, Ninnin, Ninni, Ninanna, Ninnar, Innina, Ennina, Irnina, Innini, Nana and Nin, commonly derived from an earlier Nin-ana "lady of the sky", although Gelb (1960) presented the suggestion that the oldest form is Innin (DINNIN) and that Ninni, Nin-anna and Irnina are independent goddesses in origin. Her Akkadian counterpart is Ishtar.

this does not represent Inana or ancient Goddess archetypes at all. Warfare was not a part of any goddess worship until after patriarchal conquer eroticized warfare and the power to kill. Death, rebirth, and justice were all aspects of her might, as well as the power to give life, provide sustenance, and nurture.
