This is one of the most etymologically secure deity receptions in Anatolian religious history. The transmission route is geographic: the Luwian/Neo-Hittite states of SE Anatolia (principally Carchemish) bordered and influenced the Phrygian highlands, and the adoption of Kubaba's name and enthroned-queen-with-lion iconography into the Phrygian Matar tradition is consistent with the archaeological and linguistic evidence. Combined with the already-existing ENT_CYBELE reception_of ENT_PHRYG_MATAR, this relationship completes the chain: Kubaba → Matar Kubileya → Cybele.
