2354 Shivini ENT_URA_SHIVINI aligned_with Utu/Shamash ENT_MES_UTU_SHAMASH medium Shivini and Mesopotamian Utu/Shamash are parallel sun deities of neighboring ancient Near Eastern traditions. Both are depicted with a solar disk, both serve as witnesses to oaths and upholders of justice, and both occupy a third-rank position in their divine triads (after the sky deity and storm deity). The alignment reflects the shared ancient Near Eastern theology of the sun as the divine witness of justice. Zimansky (1985) p. 70. Paul E.

2355 Shivini ENT_URA_SHIVINI aligned_with Sun Goddess of Arinna ENT_HTT_ARINNA medium Shivini and the Hittite Sun Goddess of Arinna are parallel Anatolian solar deities. Both are venerated as supreme solar powers in Anatolian Iron Age and Bronze Age religion; the winged sun disk iconography is shared across both traditions. Shivini occupies a structurally similar position in the Urartian triad to the Hittite solar deity in the Hittite pantheon. Zimansky (1985) p. 70; Piotrovsky (1969) p. 97. Paul E.
