Aruna (Hittite mythology)
Aruna is a sea god in Hittite mythology, a son of the healing and magic goddess Kamrusepa. Aruna is also the Hittite word for "sea", and like Kamrusepa may also refer to the god of the sea.Name
Various origins of this name are proposed. A Hattic origin has been suggested. A connection with Indo-European er-, or- is more plausible, and the Hittite name could have the same ultimate origin as Sanskrit arṇava.
