The Many Storm Gods of Hittite Mythology
Manage episode 362720869 series 3473882
The Hittites worshipped multiple storm gods, all with power over weather and living atop mountains, and several of them are arranged in a family relationship. This episode (25) explores this family of storm gods. But, the Hittites also had a main storm god, called Tarhunna, who was considered a protector of the entire kingdom. His most important myths featured his conflicts with Illuyanka, a monstrous serpent creature. For fun, I also talk about a myth from Ireland.
