The Sun goddess of Arinna, also sometimes identified as Arinniti or as Wuru(n)šemu,[1] is the chief goddess and companion of the weather god Tarḫunna in Hittite mythology. She protected the Hittite kingdom and was called the "Queen of all lands."

Okay... so as a self proclaimed pantser, I never realized how rewarding it is to plan and see your little world coming together with each detail you put into it!

Without further ado, I would like to introduce you to:

Neoma and Arinna Beloit, twins who were found at the doorstep of clan leader Ignace and his wife Adeline in Arbreveil.

I can't wait to tell you more as I progress along!

[yamayuandadu]

do you have any info on the obscure hittite deity Kurunta? according to his wiki he was a god of hunting and wild animals who rebelled against Tarḫunna and became king of the gods forcing "humanity against the gods" but was later overthrown by a coalition of gods and animals. according to that same wiki he showed up at the telepinu myth and was apparently worshipped in Carchemish.

By Hittite deity standards Kurunta is the opposite of obscure. Kammamma or Zulki are obscure, Kurunta isn't. The length of wiki pages not updated in 10+ years is not a metric of obscurity.

The article is ineptly written compared to the one on the German wiki, though both have the same problem with incredibly faulty approach to myths only translated into Hittite, and with rendering logograms in general. More under the cut.

Kurunta is essentially the type specimen for the category of tutelary deities, which in the context of Hittitology refers to any deity whose name could be represented by the logogram LAMMA. This sign can also be read as KAL; since the Mesopotamian Lamma deities are female and the Anatolian ones generally male and consistently more major some authors favor the latter option to stress the difference. For the history of this debate see here, for an earlier view see here. The most extensive study of this category remains Gregory McMahon’s The Hittite State Cult of the Tutelary Deities from 1991.

Kurunta is the Hittite form of the name, but Piotr Taracha in Religions of Second Millennium Anatolia argues he originally belonged to the Luwian cultural milieu, which would make the form Runtiya the basic one, though this is not universally accepted (ironically, the Runitya wiki article is pretty solid in contrast with Kurunta’s). This debate aside, the use of the logogram LAMMA to represent Kurunta  was so well established that you will quickly notice referring to him (and many of his peers) as LAMMA or “tutelary deity” is more widespread in scholarship. Today logograms are generally rendered in all caps but that wasn’t always the case in the past leading to the awkward situation on the German wiki, with NIN.URTA treated as the actual Ninurta and not an Anatolian deity represented by his name.

Kurunta’s primary roles seemed to be those of a nature god keen on hunting, though as a royal protective deity he also had warlike leanings. His symbols include a stag and a spear. He occupies an elevated position in the Hittite state pantheon, appearing as the #3 behind the weather god (Tarhunna) and the sun goddess of Arinna in standard enumerations.

Another major mistake on the wiki is that today it is the consensus position that the god worshiped in Carchemish was Karhuha and not Kurunta. Same logographic writing, similar iconography, but these are not interchangeable. I also have no clue what the wiki means by "saving deity". Some ungodly calque or automatic translation from German Schutzgott? That's "tutelary god" in English. 

The myth you mention, which seems to be someone’s personal faulty interpretation of a part of the Kumarbi cycle, also stars the tutelary god of Carchemish and not Kurunta. The most up to date treatment of this problem is Archi's Orality, Direct Speech and the Kumarbi Cycle. Archi accepts that a Hittite reader would probably read the logogram as Kurunta, but stresses the myth, due to its Hurrian origin and connection with Carchemish, can only be a narrative about Karhuha. I think his arguments are sound. McMahon outright rejects a Hittite reading. For more background on these myths in general and their cultural context see here (+sources linked), I wrote a lot about this last year so I do not think I need to repeat myself here. Most notably, the theme of kingship among the gods was a firmly Hurrian concern, not Hittite.

Kurunta/Runtiya has notably proven himself to be one of the most long-lived Bronze Age Anatolian deities, and in Cilicia and Pisydia was worshiped well into the Hellenistic period. This is actually fairly unique, as only a handful of other, mostly fairly minor, deities made it past the Bronze Age collapse across the region.

“From Anatolia and Iran, these [Indo-European] tribes continued to push southward into Mesopotamia and Canaan. According to Professor Albright,

There is both archaeological and documentary evidence pointing to a great migratory movement or movements from the northeast into Syria in the 18th century BC. As a result of this movement Hurrian and Indo-Iranian tribes flooded the country. By the 15th century we find most of eastern and northern Syria occupied predominantly by Hurrians and Indo-Iranians . . . Megiddo, Jerusalem and Ascalon [all in Canaan] are ruled by princes with Anatolian or Indo-Iranian names. The cranial type at Megiddo, which was previously Mediterranean in character, now becomes brachycephalic Alpine.

As the invasions were sporadic, they are difficult to follow and would probably require a volume on each particular area over a long period of time to be thoroughly explained. But historical, mythological and archaeological evidence suggests that it was these northern people who brought with them the concepts of light as good and dark as evil (very possibly the symbolism of their racial attitudes toward the darker people of the southern areas) and of a supreme male deity. The emergence of the male deity in their subsequent literature, which repeatedly described and explained his supremacy, and the extremely high position of their priestly caste may perhaps allow these invasions to be viewed as religious crusade wars as much as territorial conquests.

The arrival of the Indo-Aryan tribes, the presentation of their male deities as superior to the female deities of the indigenous populations of the lands they invaded and the subsequent intricate interlacing of the two theological concepts are recorded mythologically in each culture. It is in these myths that we witness the attitudes that led to the suppression of Goddess worship.

As Sheila Collins writes, "Theology is ultimately political. The way human communities deify the transcendent and determine the categories of good and evil have more to do with the power dynamics of the social systems which create the theologies than with the spontaneous revelation of truth from another quarter."

Judging from the production of religious mythology of the royal scribes and priests found in the archives of palaces of the Indo-European-ruled nations of the historic periods, often in the language of the conquered populations, we may surmise that political aims, rather than religious fervor, may well have been the motivation. The prevalence of myths that explain the creation of the universe by the male deity or the institution of kingship, when none had existed previously, strongly hints at the possibility that many of these myths were written by priests of the invading tribes to justify the supremacy of the new male deities and to justify the installation of a king as the result of the relationship of that king to the male deity.

The Indo-European male deity, unlike the son/lover of the Goddess religion, was most often portrayed as a storm god, high on a mountain, blazing with the light of fire or lightning. This recurrent symbolism suggests that these northern people may once have worshiped volcanoes as manifestations of their god, a factor I will discuss more thoroughly in Chapter Five. In some areas this god was annexed to the Goddess as a husband, such as the storm god Taru and the Sun Goddess of Arinna or Zeus and Hera. In some legends he emerged as a rebellious young man, who heroically destroyed the older female deity, at times upon the previously assured promise of supremacy in the divine hierarchy.

In many of these myths the female deity is symbolized as a serpent or dragon, most often associated with darkness and evil. At times the gender of the dragon seems to be neuter, or even a male (closely associated with his mother or wife who is the Goddess). But the plot and the underlying symbolic theme of the story is so similar in each myth that, judging from the stories that do use the name of the female deity, we may surmise that the allegorical identity of the dragon or serpent is that of the Goddess religion. The Goddess, the original supreme deity of the people conquered and ruled by the invading Indo-Europeans, was not ignored, but was symbolically included in such a manner that these supposedly religious myths allow us to trace Her eventual deposition.”

About the Aeda's crests, could you tell us which crests are associated with which subspecies?

So far I know that swirls = Arinna and streaks of lighting = Asteria

So, it's a little complicated due to some background coding. But colour dictates it as much as crest pattern. The aeda subspecies in a nutshell can be broken down to sun/day-themed (Arinnan), night/moon-themed (Synan), and forest themed (Asterian).

If you crest pattern is vines or bark (regardless of colour), it's Asterian

If your crest colour is gold, bronze or brown (regardless of pattern with the exception of vibes/bark), it's Arinnan

If your crest colour is silver, white, or black (regardless of pattern with the exception of vibes/bark), it's Synan

Everything else defaults to Asterian since I needed a catch all and it was too much work to add a "unknown" category for something that will only be a small flavour text thing and have additional text to account for it.

The Pantheon universe, a summary

What is the Pantheon universe?

Pantheon is a series of mythological stories that take place from approximately 3000 BCE to 1200 BCE in the area known in modern times as SWANA (Southwest Asia and North Africa).

The stories assume the existence of each ancient culture’s deities while taking into account the historical conflicts between those cultures, resulting in a kind of “historical mythology” where historical conflict reflects upon the divine realm (E.G.: the Egyptian pantheon fighting the Hittite pantheon and allies in the Battle of Kadesh story).

[twotangledsisters]

How do you think Aris pregnancy went before she got really ill?? Like was it really good and her and Fred were planning stuff and coming up with baby names and stuff like that?

I bet it was amazing!

They'd discuss baby names, Arianna would fuss over how unusual Frederic's choices were and Frederic would declare "We're royalty! We're allowed odd names." Which would open up this world of possibilities to Arianna.

Arinna would come up with such odd names Frederic would live to regret those words, but he'd also grow to love some of the odd names.

Frederic would read so many books, get special tutors and doctors!

Arianna would enjoy sitting outside in the sunlight eating chocolate and imagining herself doing the same with a baby, with a small child running around, with a teenager and with an adult because Arianna fully envisions a life with this child and not just a childhood.

Obviously Frederic would buy so many toy, blankets, books!

A whole new isle to the royal library would be added just for children books! And it wouldn't be wasted cause Rapunzel loves children book illustrations and as an adult would still sit and read them.

It'd be good, before it got bad, it'd be very good.

South Mazea

South Mazea was the first corner of the New Mazean Empire that was established, by Solana Rayhelia. It is the seat of the Empire and so while the other three queendoms operate largely independently, they are still technically under South Mazean rule.

It consists largely of desert lands.

It encompasses the cities of Aset, Khaleesia and Arinna.

Its primary religion is Amazeanism.

Its emblem is a sun.

Its current Queen is Solana Rayhelia.

notes on names: umate (āmbatai —> umatai —> umate). the construction of the word just makes me think of moon and months. secrets and politics naturally go together.

voru (kwhāryu —> bāryu —> vāryu —> vāru —> voru) is one of lina soh's targons so i wanted varu and matari to have something in common, so the pair becomes the stars and the sky. and since this is a space-faring galaxy, voru also gets industry and craft. and the cosmic force.

manarai (mbanarai —> manarai) & matari (mbatarai —> matarai —> matari) are older deities, probably the oldest of them all. manarai is fire and victory and more about the individual; matari is about healing the entirety of society, and oracles, i think. no one can agree on what gender they were, if any (manarai would totally be the sith god if the sith worshipped an indigenous coruscanti deity). they are twins and/or lovers.

via, (khwiya —> biya —> viya —> via) & onrai (ānbarai —> ānarai —> ānrai —> onrai): had a bit of fun here with the good parent/evil parent trope that abeloth plays into, so they get to technically be the same deity, which is of transformation and fertility, but also they're parent and child (most scholarship will show they're mother/daughter but there is a subset of mother/son, father/daughter versions, and sometimes a hermaphroditic pairing), and life and death. which one is which? it depended on which hemisphere you lived in.

original ones: koru (khāryu —> khārru —> khāru —> koru) is taken both from the name of [k]oruscant and 'duel of the fates', since the opening line is 'korah matah' and i thought it would be funny. she's the sun, destiny, and sorcery. if you want to push it specifically, she's the living force, as well.

nātarai (—> nātrai —> notrai) becomes the root for notron, the original name for coruscant. it's the planet, it's a local deity. like the sun goddess of arinna. but a planet. tutelary deity. constantly changing form.

zoru (dzālyu —> zhālyu —> zhāllu —> zalu/zaru —> zoru) is also the root of the word that becomes zhell, the 'origin species' of humans on coruscant. he is the 'patron saint' of the city of great zhell, but evolved into more of a general war god as the taung vs zhell conflict continued.

other the indigenous coruscanti loved them some trios. yes, via & onrai are missing a third. no, it's not zoru. historians only know that the name does end with the -ālyu suffix, though a very small subset of scholars believes it should be ambālyu (—> amālu/abālu). at a conference, someone once suggested it should be katamarai and got shouted down. other contenders are mbālyu —> moru/boru/baru.

BLOG INTRODUCTION ; Silhouette of Legends

Hello all! My name is Arinna, and welcome to the Silhouette of Legends blog. As you might be able to tell, this blog is part of a project for academic purposes; namely, a project in which I aim to introduce popular Malay folk tales, carefully dissecting stories along the way to discuss their social and cultural implications within Malaysia, and how they aim to represent the idea of "identity through culture." This blog will feature a total of five posts made to introduce and explore the cultural themes within five Malay folk tales, which are as follows: - Mahsuri - Hikayat Hang Tuah - Puteri Gunung Ledang - Puteri Santubong & Puteri Sejinjang - A personal family legend of mine, originating from Pulau Pangkor Please note that following the completion of these five posts, this blog will become inactive indefinitely, as by then, the project will have been completed. Thanks for reading, and look forward to the engaging discussions soon to come!
