Teisheba (Tei\u0161eba) is linguistically and theologically identical to Hurrian Teshub (the chief storm deity of Hurrian and Hittite/Hurrian religion), with the name corresponding by regular Hurrian-to-Urartian sound change (Hurrian Te\u0161(u)b \u2192 Urartian Tei\u0161eba). He is called \"lord of the sky\" in Urartian inscriptions and is associated with thunder, storms, and military valor; his sacred animal is the bull, consistent with the Anatolian storm deity iconographic tradition across Tarhunna (Hittite), Teshub (Hurrian), Adad (Akkadian), and Baal (Canaanite). His principal temple was at the Urartian capital Tushpa (modern Van); the major fortress-city Teishebaini (\"city of Teisheba,\" modern Karmir Blur near Yerevan) was named for him. Piotrovsky's excavations at Karmir Blur yielded the richest Urartian cult material. Teisheba stands in a direct succession from the Hurrian storm deity tradition that entered Urartu through the Hurro-Urartian linguistic and cultural inheritance.
