===Wind demons===
Lilû (wind) demons are the class to which Pazuzu and his subjects belong.{{sfn|Wiggermann|p=372}}

There is a connection to the earlier Babylonian personifications of [[The Four Winds (Mesopotamian)|The Four Winds]].{{sfn | Wiggermann | 2007}} These beings, as depicted on several cylinder seals, have wings, and each represents a different wind direction; South, East, West, and North.{{sfn | Wiggermann | 2007}} Franz Wiggermann calls attention to the crooked positioning of the masculine West Wind{{sfn | Wiggermann | 2007}} in seals, as similar to posture in Pazuzu's iconography.{{sfn | Wiggermann | 2007}} More connections appear in later seals, as this same bent-over figure takes on talons and a scorpion's tail.{{sfn | Wiggermann | 2007}} The main difference in their depictions is the head, thus Wiggerman concludes that it is Pazuzu's body and not his head that denotes him as a wind demon.{{sfn | Wiggermann | 2007}} Another scholar, Scott Noegel, asserts that Pazuzu's possession of four wings links to the term ''kippatu'', meaning  "circle, loop, circumference, and totality",{{sfn | Noegel | 2018}} suggesting his control over all cardinal directions of wind inherited from his predecessors.{{sfn | Noegel | 2018}}
