About: Kotharat

An Entity of Type: agent, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Kotharat (Ugaritic: 𐎋𐎘𐎗𐎚, kṯrt) were a group of seven goddesses associated with conception, pregnancy, birth and marriage, worshiped chiefly in northern part of modern Syria in the Bronze Age. They are attested in texts from Mari, Ugarit and Emar. There is no agreement among translators over whether they had individual names in Ugaritic tradition. They were considered analogous to the Mesopotamian Šassūrātu, a collective term referring to assistants of the goddess Ninmah, and to Hurrian Hutena and Hutellura. It has been suggested that the latter were at least in part patterned after the Kotharat.

  • Kotharoth of Kotharat, Kathirat, waren in Ugarit in de Kanaänitische mythologie geboortegodinnen. Zij hadden een functie bij het ontstaan van het nieuwe leven en de familie. Ze komen bijvoorbeeld voor in het epos van Aqhat en de mythe van Nikkal. Ze worden wel vergeleken met de Gratiën van de Griekse mythologie en worden voorgesteld als zwaluwen, omdat deze vogels met de lente en zijn vruchtbaarheid verbonden worden. Kothar Wachasis betekende "Vaardig en Wijs" en duidde op de goddelijke ambachtsman die een stel strijdknotsen met magische kracht voor Baäl maakte. Hij verschafte aan Aqhat zijn boog. (nl)
