This text has been automatically translated from Turkish. Show Original
There were two types of temples in the Urartians. The first of these were standard-sized, square-planned, tower-type temples built in the citadels of the cities. The second are sacred niches carved in the shape of doors, which are understood to be a continuation of the traditional understanding of worship. According to the inscription in the Meher Kapı open-air monument near Van/ Toprakkale, there are 79 gods, goddesses and divine attributes that the Urartians believed in, blessed and sacrificed in their names at certain periods. Haldi, Teişeba and Şivini share the first three places. Haldi was the chief god of the Urartians. Its largest temple was in Muşaşir, located in the south of the Lake Van basin, in the region between Assyria and Urartu. Teişeba (Storm god) is of Hurrian origin, his name is Teşup in Hittite. Shivini
(Sun god) is of Hurrian origin. It is the equivalent of Shimegi in the Hittites. On certain days of the year, sheep, goats and cattle (bulls) were sacrificed to the gods, and their females were sacrificed to the goddesses.
