with reference to ds oft repeated comment
In Hurria in eastern Anatolia the Hurrian god Anus
was originally the cup bearer
for an even older heavenly ruler, Alalus.
After nine years Anus defeated and overthrew his master
dispatching him to under the earth
Similar to Zeus' overthrow of Kronos or his defeat
and casting into Tartaros of the Titans
The sky god Anu aka Anus equates to the Sumerian An/Anu, Ouranos, and Varuna
though there was no Earth consort in this myth.
However, the overthrow of this primordial sky god
closely parallels both the Sumerian and Greek versions
He took his seat on the throne and had Kumarbis as his cupbearer.
Likewise, after nine years
Kumarbis rebelled and usurped the rule of Anus who fled to the sky.
Kumarbis also bit off and swallowed his phallus
which detail parallels Kronos' castration of Ouranos.
In this act Anus had some revenge
by impregnating Kumarbis with the Storm-god
the god of the Aranzahas (Tigris) river, and Tasmisus.
Anus then hid himself in heaven.
After the Storm-god's 'birth' or regurgitation
this triad plotted to destroy Kumarbis
and, with his other children, succeeded.
Although this part of the Hurrian story diverges somewhat from the Greek
we can still recognize
that this impregnating of Kumarbis
equates to Kronos' swallowing his children
before both finally regurgitating them.
The respective children overthrew both of these gods
of whom the 'Storm-god' was the leader in both myths.
The 'impregnation' of Kumarbis also reflects another theme
recalled in such myths as Zeus' swallowing of his pregnant wife Metis
before 'giving birth' to Athena from his head
- a theme that is otherwise very strange to the other Indo-European peoples.
What was Disney thinking?
Anyway, there's an ancient religious connection involved with a planet named P!uto and the Sign called Scorpio.
The ancient Babylonians pictured the constellation of the Scorpion with ancient Egypt in mind.
And, the most important god of Egypt was Osirus, transformed by the Hellenists
into their god of the Underworld, Pluto.
The Romans originally had their own name for the god, "Dis Pater", but
later changed it to Pluto. Pluto and Apollo are the only Greek deities
I know of with the same exact name in Latin as in the Greek.
