Both deities share an exact structural role: (1) they overthrow the ruling sky deity by biting/castrating the genitals (Kumarbi bites off Anu's genitals; Kronos castrates Ouranos with a sickle); (2) they absorb divine seed and become pregnant with the deity who will overthrow them; (3) they are themselves defeated by the storm deity son (Teshub/Zeus). This three-stage narrative is unique to the Kumarbi cycle among Near Eastern texts and uniquely explains why Hesiod's Theogony has the same three-stage structure.
