nice work, although i've started questioning of late, if that is really eridu. according to the texts, eridu was pretty snazzy. that first eridu layer, doesn't look like much of anything.

According to the Book of Enoch, Azazel is the chief of the Se'irim ("the hairy ones").
Azazel is the chief of the Se'irim, or goat-demons, who haunted the desert and to whom most primitive Semitic (most likely non-Hebrew) tribes offered sacrifices. The Old Testament states that Jeroboam appointed priests for the Se'irim. But Josiah destroyed the places of their worship, as the practices accompanying this worship involved copulation of women with goats.
The Se'irim, or hairy demons as the word itself means, are mentioned in Leviticus 17:7 and 2 Chronicles 11:15 as "goat-demons". Isaiah 34:14 says that the "goat-demons" greet each other among the ruins of Edom along with Lilith and other wild beasts.
The name 'Azazel' may be derived from 'azaz' and 'el' meaning 'strong one of God.' It is thought that Azazel may have been derived from the Canaanite god, 'Asiz, who caused the sun to burn strongly. It has also been theorized that he has been influenced by the Egyptian god, Seth.

so i'm labelling this one (for the moment) as the seraphim with eyes all over its wings, perhaps a description of the craft itself.
there almost appears to be a good and not good version of all these seraphim types. it's quite confusing.
