ENT_LYD_KUVAVA	PER_LYDIAN	high	The Lydian mother-goddess, attested in Lydian inscriptions as Kuvava and in Greek as Kybebe (Herodotus 5.102; Hipponax names her at Sardis). Descended from the Luwian/Neo-Hittite Kubaba of Carchemish and ancestral to the Phrygian/Greek Cybele; central to Munn's account of Anatolian divine sovereignty. Distinct local form, not the Phrygian Matar.	SRC_MUNN_MOTHER_GODS	reviewed
