No, there is no connection, nor is there any evidence of the Sumerian civilisations knowledge of nine planets, often portrayed in books by authors such as that of Zecharia Sitchin, a pseudo-Assyriologist. Between the Sumerians and later Babylonians, only five planets where known; Venus, Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn. All observable by eye at night in the right conditions.
