The aim of this investigation concerns the study of the Hurrian pantheon (i.e. the deities worshipped and venerated by them) in a diachronic and synchronic perspective, encompassing different areas of the Ancient Near East (Mesopotamia, Syria and Anatolia). In doing so, we have limited our scope to the study and analysis of the Hurrian personal names from the third and the first part of the second millennium BC, which are a valuable source since many of them carried theophorous elements. The analysis of the Hurrian onomastics, from a philological and historical perspective, has provided with a wider scope of the pantheon, the most common as well as unusual deities throughout time and space, the characteristics (epithets and appellatives) and the changes that the structure suffered along with its development.
