 Hurrian Culture
Other tablets tell us that Kumarbi, the chief god of the Hurrian pantheon, ruled from the Hurrian capital city of Urkesh.
But after more than 70 fruitless years of searching for its remains, archeologists generally agreed that Urkesh had either been destroyed in antiquity, leaving not a trace, or had never been more than the mythical home of the Hurrian gods.
Kumarbi, the principal deity who lived in Urkesh, had a son, Ullikummi, whose nickname translates as "basalt," who is described as exploding and spreading out over the land: Basalt in fact covers the landscape, likely produced by the now-extinct Kaukab Volcano, whose double-coned caldera lies some 100 kilometers (62 miles) from Tell Mozan.

All myth doesn't arise from a repressed birth trauma after all!] Such crystallizations can explain the many differences between the Hittite stories involving Kumarbi and the Greek stories about Cronus.
Most Greek myth scholars treat the role of Cronus in the Greek cosmogony as derived from that of Kumarbi in the Hittite story.
Burkert agrees: many of the Hittite details did not transfer, and many of the Greek ones have been added for various reasons, but structural analysis reveals that the 'basic structure of the action pattern' in both is identical (pp.
