Hittite/Hurrian Mythology

They ruled the kingdom of Mitanni. In the late 15th century B.C. the Hittite empire's beginning is marked by an influx of Hurrian names into the royal family. Tudhalyas I (1420 B.C.) reunited Western Anatolia under Hittite rule, and retook Allepo but lost the Black Sea coast to the Kaska tribes. After some difficulty with the Mittani the Hittites resurged under King Suppilulimas around 1344-1322 taking a firmer hold on Syria. With Egypt, they dominated the lands of Canaan and the Levant during the 1200's. The Hittites were a patriarchal, highly agricultural society. You will notice that many of the names carry an optional 's' as a suffix, which comes from the nominative case ending for Hittite. Alalu(s) He was the king in heaven in olden days and Anus was the first among the gods. Anu(s) (Akkadian in origin) He is sometimes equated with Enlil and Dagan. Imbaluris. Beowulf. All mythologies.
