Meaning & History
The name is possibly derived from a word for "horn" or "antler", but all the etymologies which have been proposed to date are problematic. Name borne by a Luwian god of hunting, who was often invoked alongside the goddess Ala. A tentative connection has been made by some scholars with the Hittite god Kurunta, although this is disputed.
