  • Pidray (Ugaritic: 𐎔𐎄𐎗𐎊, pdry) was an Ugaritic goddess of uncertain character. While she is well attested in Ugaritic texts, her role in Ugaritic religion remains uncertain. It has been proposed that she was one of the tutelary deities of the kings of Ugarit. Another proposal connects her with the weather, though this assumption is not universally accepted. The meaning of her name also continues to be disputed. In Ugaritic myths, she is described as a daughter of the weather god Baal.

Pidray alone is also mentioned in the myth Marriage of Nikkal and Yarikh. (en)
