Lingual Aid, Please
#1
I was just wondering if anyone here knew a thing or two about ancient Babylonian languages, or knew of any sites where I can get some help on it? You see, I am preping a Call of Cthulhu campaign, and I need some help with a few Babylonian words to help scare the players. Specifically, I "need" to know the Babylonian words for "shaper of flesh", or "flesh warper/moulder".

Anyone able to help?
