On Some Rarely Attested Ebla Gods

Several dozen divine names occur in the Ebla Palace G cuneiform texts (end of the 24'h century BC). The majority of the attestations refers to a relatively limited subset consisting of the most popular deities, who are often well known from other sources (e.g. Hadda, ISl;).ara, !Star, Dagan), but sometimes are enigmatically peculiar to the Eh la documentation (e.g. KU ra, Nldabal). On the other hand, for several other DNs the attestations available are few, and I will discuss some of them in this study friendly dedicated to Simonetta.
