Immortal son of the sun is the meaning of Amar-Utu or Marduk, and that he was Amor deified is proven by that the Amorites (progeny of Canaan) were known as the Amurru or Martu to the people of ancient Mesopotamia. Another son of Canaan was Sin (progenitor of the Sinites) who was deified as the moon god Sin of Mesopotamia, and some of his progeny moved far to the east, the namesake of China.
