The Empire Period 109
Unlike Samas, but similarly to the Hurrian Simige, Tiwad had no coimection with
The netherworld. The Luwians of Kizzuwatna worshiped the chthonic aspect of the
Sun as a separate divinity, The Sun of the Earth (tiyarnmassis Tiwad) was a god-
dess, mistress of the netherworld,' ' sharing some traits with the Syrian/Ugaritan
Sun-goddess Sapsu, who like Samas crossed the netherworld at, night.’’ With the
Hurrianization of local beliefs, however, there appeared an image of the Sun-god
Dess of the Earth modeled on the Hurrian Allani (3.2.5). She was supposed to open
The gates to the netherworld and, like other chthonic deities, to purify the earth of
All evil, impurity and illness. According to a description of the court of the Sun-god
Dess of the Earth in a prayer addressed to her (CTH 371), her entourage included:
A tutelary god, vizier, servants, Supervisor of the eunuchs, Supervisor of the hair-
Dressers, and the divinities Hilassi, Darawa (texts also refer to a group of the
Darawes-goddesses, see 3.2.5) and Paraya.' u Divine midwives and fate goddesses
DINGIR.MAH ME ■ I A Gulses, 573 for whom the model were the Hurrian mother
Goddesses Hudena Hudellurra accompanying Allani (3.2.5), were also connected with
The Sun-goddess of the Earth. She was summoned together with the Sun-god al-
Ready in the Old Hittite magical ritual (CTH 416) which demonstrates ties with the
Luwian tradition 5 (see 3.1.4). The different spheres of influence of the two solar
Deities are well reflected by a spell included in a ritual text, in which the Old Woman
Addresses Tiwad and the Sun-goddess of the Earth on behalf of a patient: “If he is
Living, Tiwad shali deliver him above; if he is dead, the Sun-goddess of the Ea rth
shall deliver him, the man of curse and perjury.”' 3

Otherwise tban in Hattian beliefs, in wiiich the Moon-god Kasku played a minor
Role, for the Luwians Arma the Moon was the objeet of great veneration.” 82 In the teste
His name is usually eoncealed under the iogograms T XXX or EN.ZU. Arma held
A significant Position in cults deriving fron» the Luwian-Hittite tradition, which were
ceiebrated in Hattusa, also by the royal farsiily, already in Old Hittite tämes (3.1.2).
Theophoric narnes are good evidence of the god’s popularity in folk religion;“ 0 " they
Were particularly numerous in the first millennium BC in Caria, Lycia, Pamphylia
And Cilicia. 584 The Luwians shared the view about the Moon’s ties with the months
Of pregnancy. 580 The god was summoned in some rituala designed to protect the
Pregnant womaxi and assist in childbirth. This aspect brought the Moon closer to
Efathomc divinities. 586 In Kizzuwatna, the Luwian Arma was dominated by the
Human Moon-god Kusufs (3.2.5). In art he was patterned ort his Human counter-
Part, being represented as a winged male figure in a pointed cap topped by
A crescent. Another dominant cult in eastem Luwian territories was that of the Moon-
god from the Syrian city of Hamm (Human Kuzina), about 40 km southeast of
Urfa, introduced among others in Tarhuntassa; 6 ' 1 it.s heyday came in the first mil-
Lennium BC.
