Kippat-māti

Kippat-māti

Kippat-māti or Kippatu was a Mesopotamian goddess. She is almost exclusively attested in Neo-Assyrian state rituals. It is possible that she was regarded as capable of mediating between the kings of Assyria and their dead ancestors. Textual sources indicate that she was depicted on a relief commissioned by Sennacherib which depicted a beetle between Ashur, his allies and Tiamat.
