Theispas

Theispas

Theispas (also known as Teisheba or Teišeba) was the Urartian weather god associated with storms, thunder, and sometimes war. He formed a triad with the gods Ḫaldi and Shivini. The ancient Urartian city of Teishebaini was named after the god, and the 8th-century BCE fortress of Odzaberd was dedicated to him. Theispas was often depicted as a man standing on a bull, holding a handful of thunderbolts. His wife was the goddess Huba, counterpart to the Hurrian goddess Ḫepat.

Theispas is associated with the Assyrian god Adad, the Vedic god Indra, and with Teshub, a god of the Hittites and Hurrians.
