thumb|Depiction of Adrammelech, from Jacques Collin de Plancy|Collin de Plancy's [[Dictionnaire Infernal, 1863]] Adrammelech (; Adramélekh) is an ancient Semitic god mentioned briefly by name in the Book of Kings, where he is described as a god of "Sepharvaim". Sepharvaim (a word which is grammatically dual) is commonly, but not certainly, identified with the twin cities of Sippar Yahrurum and Sippar Amnanum on the banks of the Euphrates, north of Babylon. The name Adrammelech probably translates to "Magnificent king."
