context_page_description: Arma was an Anatolian Moon god, worshipped by the Hittites and Luwians in the Bronze Age and early Iron Age.
context_section_description: Arma was identified with the Hurrian Moon god Kušuḫ, as in Hittite sources which transmit the Hurrian "Song of Silver," in which the Moon god is defeated by the demon Ušḫuni ("Silver") and is thrown out of heaven by him.
  In Syria he is assimilated to the cult of the Moon god of Harran, especially in the 1st millennium BC, which was among the most important deities of the city.
  It is theorized, that the supreme deity of pre-Christian Georgian religion, Armazi, has heavy ties with Hittite Arma.
