Belus - Babylonian, Chaldaean - All things being in this situation, Belus came, and cut Omoroca asunder: and of one half of her he formed the earth, and the other half the heavens; and at the same time destroyed the animals within her. This Belus, by whom they signify Jupiter, divided the darkness, and separated the Heavens from the Earth, and reduced universe to order. But the animals, not being able to bear the prevalence of light, died. Belus upon this, seeing a vast space unoccupied, though by nature fruitful, commanded one of the gods to take off his head, and to mix the blood with the earth; and from thence to form other men and animals, which should be capable of bearing the air. Belus formed also the stars, the sun, the moon and the 5 planets.
Belus - Babylonian - Was a Goa'uld leading a people who believed their god fround pleasure, as they did, in every agony inflicted on their foes. Omoroca fought him in order to free mankind from enslavement by the Goa'uld. Though Belus killed her, she was ultimately successful. Humans flourished into a civilization which rivalled that of the Goa'uld. Daniel acknowledged that they owe Omoroca a great debt. (Thor's Hammer, Fire and Water, The Tomb)
