1644 Cybele ENT_CYBELE reception_of Matar Kubileya ENT_PHRYG_MATAR high Greek/Roman Cybele is a Hellenized reception of the Phrygian Matar Kubileya; the transmission route was through Phocaean Greek traders contacting Phrygian cult centers in the 7th–6th c. BCE. Key moments: the introduction of Cybele to Smyrna and Ephesus (6th c. BCE), then to Athens (5th c. BCE), then to Rome (204 BCE as Magna Mater/Mater Deum). Roller (1999) pp. 119-165.

2385 Attis ENT_ATTIS paired_with Matar Kubileya ENT_PHRYG_MATAR high Attis is the consort and beloved of Matar Kubileya in the Phrygian tradition — their pairing is the theological foundation of the Cybele-Attis mystery cult. In the Pessinuntine myth Attis is the beautiful youth whom Cybele/Matar loves; his self-castration and death is the wound at the cult's emotional center, and the annual mourning and resurrection rites re-enact the divine pair's tragedy and renewal.
