Shamshel

The 16th Watcher mentioned in the Book of Enoch

Shamsiel, also spelled Samsâpêêl, Shamshel, Shashiel or Shamshiel, was the 16th Watcher of the 20 leaders of the 200 fallen angels that are mentioned in an ancient work called the Book of Enoch. The name means "sun of God", which is fitting since it has been said that Shamsiel taught men the signs of the sun during the days of Jared or Yered. Shamash may share some mythological basis with Shamsiel.
