| ENT_LYD_SANTAS | PER_LYDIAN | high | Lydian war- and plague-god, the Anatolian Sandon/Sandas figure interpreted by Greeks as a Heracles. Munn connects him to Lydian dynastic ancestry (the Tylonid/Heraclid line at Sardis); continuous with the Luwian Santa and Cilician Sandas. Attested via theophoric onomastics and the Greek Herakles-equation. | SRC_MUNN_MOTHER_GODS | reviewed |
