The paradoxical thinking that pervades every aspect of life and the contrasting behaviors of individuals that are incompatible with their characters have necessitated thinking together about dualities that are actually contrary to each other but at the same time synergistic and interrelated within the system. Ambiguous phenomena that are perceived as completely opposite from the outside actually play a very important role in the formation of the social order of a society. There were both dualistic and ironic situations within the phenomena created by the peoples living in ancient times in order to create social order and keep up with the age they were in. One of the most prominent among these ancient societies was Ancient Mesopotamia, which is regarded as the cradle of civilization and has a very important place in history. In Mesopotamia, along with gods, many different types of superhuman beings were believed to exist, including protectors, good and evil spirits, demons and ghosts. These beings were included in social order and balance and contributed to the formation of the social structure. The aim of this study is to examine the extraordinary Mesopotamian demons Pazuzu and Lamaštu in the context of their different characteristics and their paradoxical and ironic aspects within the social order in line with the works of Nils P. Heeßel, Walter Farber, Wilfred George Lambert and Wiggermann.
