1474 Teshub ENT_HTT_TESHUB identified_with Tarhunna ENT_HTT_TARHUNNA high The Hurrian storm god Teshub and the Hittite storm god Tarhunna are closely identified throughout the syncretized Hittite-Hurrian religious tradition. At the Yazilikaya open-air sanctuary (c. 1250 BCE), the two traditions' storm deities appear together, effectively as the same divine power under different names. Hittite treaty texts and prayers use the names interchangeably or in paired formulae. Harry A. Hoffner Jr., Hittite Myths, 2nd ed.

1538 Inaras ENT_HTT_INARAS guides Tarhunna ENT_HTT_TARHUNNA high In the first version of the Illuyanka myth (CTH 321 §§1-8), Inaras devises and executes the strategy that allows Tarhunna (the storm god) to defeat Illuyanka: she prepares the feast that lures the serpent into vulnerability and recruits the mortal Hupasiya to bind him. Tarhunna's victory over Illuyanka is explicitly enabled by Inaras's cunning rather than the storm god's direct power alone. Harry A. Hoffner Jr., Hittite Myths, 2nd ed.

2101 Sun Goddess of Arinna ENT_HTT_ARINNA paired_with Tarhunna ENT_HTT_TARHUNNA high Hoffner, Hittite Myths: the Sun Goddess of Arinna and the Storm God Tarhunna are the royal divine couple of the Hittite pantheon; she is "Queen of Heaven and Earth" and "mistress of the Hittite lands."

2353 Teisheba ENT_URA_TEISHEBA aligned_with Tarhunna ENT_HTT_TARHUNNA high Teisheba and Hittite Tarhunna are parallel thunder deities of neighbouring Anatolian traditions — both derive from the same deep Anatolian storm-deity complex (Proto-Anatolian *tarḫu-, "to conquer/prevail"). They occupy the same second-rank position in their divine triads and share the bull iconography. The alignment reflects the broad Anatolian storm-deity tradition that also includes Ugaritic Baal, Mesopotamian Adad, and later Zeus. Zimansky (1985) p. 69. Paul E.
