Onomasticon of the Hittite Pantheon: Part 3 (Handbook of Oriental Studies/Handbuch Der Orientalistik) [Hardcover]

Ben H. L. Van Gessel (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: April 1, 2001 | Series: Handbook of Oriental Studies

This work is a comprehensive reference work concerning the Hittite pantheon. The easy-reference glossaries contain all the (word) forms quoted from Hittite texts in the Onomasticon. A special feature of these glossaries is that they not only give the (English) meaning of the (word) forms, but that they also indicate, where appropriate, in relation to which deities they may appear. Also of importance are the lists of personal and geographical names and festivals included. Part Three further includes additions resulting from new discoveries and corrections of earlier references in the Onomasticon.
