CTH 626.Tg06.6

Festival of Haste (nuntarriyašḫa-). Day 6

introductio



Kurzbeschreibung

Version 6 is represented by a single manuscript, CHDS 6.13. The fragment describes a portion of the god-drinking ceremony, with rites for Wurunkatte and Waḫiši. The only other text where this sequence is attested so far – albeit with different wording – is IBoT 4.54+ (ms. C in Version 2). Therefore, the attribution of CHDS 6.13 to the nuntarriyašḫa- festival, while tentative, seems justified.
