Unfortunately, there is no specific definition of the word inan-, which appears in various sources including prayers, rituals, and medical texts.

This article also examines other texts in which the word inan-occurs and the effects and treatments of inan-disease that are discussed in these sources. In addition, evidence from magic rituals demonstrates that various adjectives were used for the Sun God, and according to the Ayartaša rituals that are discussed in this study, it is apparent that one of the epithets of the Sun God may have been the word inan-. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y dt: @attributes: year: 2024 holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
