This deity once hid a gardener who worked for him after that gardener raped one goddess while she was sleeping, but later revealed him when that goddess sought justice more calmly. This god rescued that same goddess from the underworld by sending beings made from dirt underneath his fingernails. That goddess later stole knowledge from this deity and his city while he was drunk. In one story, after consuming plants created from his own semen by his wife, he becomes pregnant with seven children, who his wife has to take from him. He also saved Atrahasis, and thus, humanity, by delivering a message to the walls of his hut when Enlil decided to destroy the Earth with a flood. For 10 points, identify this Sumerian deity associated with the city of Eridu, a water-god who taught humans about medicine and irrigation.
