Hebat is the Hurrian mother goddess of beauty, fertility and royalty, and probably sun. She is the wife of the supreme god Teshub, and the mother of Sharrumas. She may be identical to the sky-goddess Hepit.
The mother goddess is likely to have had a later counterpart in the Phrygian goddess Cybele.
Hebat is sometimes depicted with a lion...
