Abstract

The paper focuses on the motif of the Sun-god's quadriga with its satellites in the Prayers to the Sun-god for appeasing an angry god (CTH 372-374) and on Mesopotamian texts which may have served as a model for the Hittite passage. Special attention will be paid to "Fears (nahsariattes)" and "Terrors (weritemas)".
