The god Kumarbi is depicted as striding in the mountains with one foot on top of the patterned mountain and the other foot placed as if walking quickly. He is bearded and wears a short skirted garment and flat hat with one horn extending from the front. Behind him on the top of the mountain a small goat is standing facing left .
The image of the god, the depiction of the mountain as well as the goat figure following him in the mountains shows that the artist was aware of the description of Kumarbi as we know from the cuneiform texts that Kumarbi walks in the mountains near Urkesh [Input: ZK928 gB.j] |
