The great dark
Sea of Suf lies in the World of Darkness. The great dividing river of
Hitfun, analogous to the
Styx in
Greek mythology, separates the World of Darkness from the
World of Light.
Siniawis is one of the regions of the World of Darkness. The
Ginza Rabba mention the
Abaddons (
ebdunia) as part of the World of Darkness. The
Right Ginza mentions the existence of the "upper Abaddons" (
ebdunia ʿlaiia) as well as the "lower Abaddons" (
ebdunia titaiia). The World of Darkness is sometimes referred to as
Sheol (
šiul) in the
Ginza Rabba and other
Mandaean scriptures. ==Inhabitants==
