Offerings for Tinia, Tinia-Ra, and Ra in honor of the summer solstice and the secret procession of Ma'at and Ra.

Sin Tinia oh radiant one!

Great lord who dispels disputes,

The land blooms at the sight of you.

Throughout the the people of the league feast

As you give food to those you love.

Sin Tinia-Ra!

He who is the heart of the heavens,

You rise as gold in jubilation.

Lord of all the lands,

Wise one, who comes to a just decision,

I praise you!

Dua Ra, dua Ma'at!

You who walk through the two lands,

The lands are purified by your presence.

Oh great judges, the forces of isfet tremble before you.

May you drive them from people's hearts so that all might be good.

Hello all! It’s Saturday, which means I’m back to Satre posting!

I discovered recently that he is actually on the Liver of Piacenza! That’s it, just a name, but I do find it fascinating that such a poorly-attested ais is on one of the major pieces of Etruscan writing we have, not a singular votive stone.

On Uni’s Wikipedia, her father is listed as Satre, and I do have to assume that this is because of Juno being the daughter of Saturn, and Hera being the daughter of Kronos. Though it is Wikipedia, and I do have to look more into this! It’s also intriguing because besides the equivalences, there doesn’t appear to be any reason for this connection! And no Rhea/Ops equivalent, as far as I can tell. (Again, I do have to do more research!)

But I admit, in my personal worship, I fully accept Uni as the daughter of Satre - perhaps Tins as well! I’ll need to ponder on that a bit longer.

Śin Satre!

(Apologies if this is a bit over the place, it’s largely just me typing out Satre ramblings, lol.)

Birth scenes in general are much more popular in Etruscan than in Greek art. While the divine conceptions and births in Greek myth are uniformly unnatural, Etruscan renderings often bring out their more practical, normal aspects. Tinia is shown on a mirror giving birth to a large, fully armed Menerva with two beautifully dressed midwives at his side, comforting him and bandaging his aching head. Elsewhere we see the baby Dionysos, wearing protective amulets, emerging from Tinia’s thigh, where he has been incubated; a female attendant nurse, Mean, holds an unguent jar and dipstick: is it to assuage the birth pangs of Tinia, the new father, or to anoint the new-born baby? An Etruscan scene shows the conception of a god as an actual sexual union, as Semla lifts up her skirt in an anasyrma gesture to have intercourse with the great god: a satyr shows that the conception of the god Fufluns/Dionysos will be the result.

Als der Tatort beim LKW untersucht wurde, habe ich ein wenig gehofft, dass wir Tine Wiedersehen. Autobahn, LKW und niedersächsische Polizeibeamte, das hätte mehr als gut gepasst, auch wenn bei Hannover eher nicht ihr Einsatzgebiet ist.
