Innara (Cuneiform: 𒀭𒆗 dLAMMA) is the Hittite god of woods and fields.

Inar is mentioned in the Hahhima-myth. There Tarhun sends Inar to look for sun god Istanu, but the ice devil Hahhima freezes Inar. Inar's tasks are similar to the tasks of the god of wild animals and hunting, Kurunta.

Name

In the Luwian language, Innara is called Annari.

The name of the god comes from the word innara-, meaning "Power, Strength", which itself comes from *h1en-h2nor-o-, an Indo-European word meaning "having masculinity" from the root *h2ner-, which means "man".
