| 1480 | ENT_HTT_TESHUB | aligned_with | ENT_ZEUS | low | [RETYPED v2.1.60 received_as->aligned_with, high->low: West (East Face of Helicon) argues literary transmission of the succession/storm-champion NARRATIVE pattern, not that the god Zeus derives from Teshub; Zeus's name is an independent IE inheritance (*Dyeus). Typological/motif alignment only. The Ullikummi->Typhon motif chain (edges 1482/1483) remains as reception.] Teshub and Zeus share the role of the storm deity champion who defeats a monstrous adversary (Ullikummi/Typhon) and the usurper predecessor (Kumarbi/Kronos) to establish the current divine order. West (1997) documents that the narrative structure of Zeus's ascent in Hesiod's Theogony follows the Kumarbi cycle more closely than any other Near Eastern text. Both Teshub and Zeus also create an ordered cosmos out of the pre-existing chaos. The transmission pathway runs through Anatolian-Ionian Greek contact in the Archaic period. | SRC_WEST_EAST_HELICON | needs_review | PER_GRK_ARCHAIC |
