Document Details : Title: À propos du culte des ancêtres Subtitle: Un aspect de la notion de l'âme ches les Hittites Author(s): KAPEŁUŚ, Magdalena Journal: Bibliotheca Orientalis Volume: 67 Issue: 3-4 Date: 2010 Pages: 259-269 DOI: 10.2143/BIOR.67.3.2057454 Abstract : Although the Hittites saw body (tuekka-/NÍ.TE) and soul (istanza(n)-/ZI) as different, and the soul as immaterial, several ritual texts describe the soul of a deity as consisting of gold or other precious materials. These passages are treated in order to explore the Hittite notion of the soul. |
