| 2391 | ENT_ELAM_KIRIRISHA | aligned_with | ENT_ZOR_ANAHITA | low | Kiririsha and Anahita are parallel as the principal goddess figures of the Iranian cultural sphere in successive historical periods — Kiririsha as the Elamite great goddess (c. 2200–539 BCE), Anahita as the Zoroastrian/Iranian water-and-fertility goddess (attested from the Achaemenid period). Both are associated with water, fertility, and divine protection of the Iranian world. Confidence low: the parallel is typological across a large chronological gap (the Achaemenid synthesis of Iranian and Elamite religious traditions is attested but the specific Kiririsha → Anahita transmission is scholarly inference rather than inscriptional fact.
