"Semiramis (/səˈmɪrəmɪs, sɪ-, sɛ-/; Syriac: ܫܲܡܝܼܪܵܡ‎ Šammīrām, Greek: Σεμίραμις Semíramis, Armenian: Շամիրամ Šamiram) was the legendary Lydian-Babylonian wife of Onnes and Ninus, succeeding the latter to the throne of Assyria. The legends narrated by Diodorus Siculus, who drew from the works of Ctesias of Cnidus describes her and her relationships to Onnes and King Ninus, a mythical king of Assyria not attested in the far older and more comprehensive Assyrian King List. The indigenous Assyrians of Iraq, northeast Syria, southeast Turkey, and northwest Iran still use Semiramis (also Shamiram) as a given name for female children." - (en.wikipedia.org 27.11.2019)
