Felieu notes that while Ishara was associated with various male deities in different time periods and locations, most evidence does not indicate that she was believed to have a permanent spouse in other traditions either. In Hurrian tradition she was viewed as a daughter of Enlil. Two deities are addressed as parents of Ishara in the proemium of the Song of Kumarbi. Gary Beckman restores their names as "Enlil and Apantu," though in the same composition Enlil is paired with his wife Ninlil. Alfonso Archi in his translation of the same passage chooses to leave the names blank. A single Mesopotamian text commenting on magical formulas meant to protect a house from supernatural invaders refers to the Sebitti as sons of Ishara, but assyriologist Frans Wiggermann, who studied this group of gods extensively, assumes that this is only a result of confusion between her and similarly named underworld god Enmesharra, whose children these seven deities were more frequently identified as. In Hurrian context, as an underworld deity, Ishara was closely associated with Allani and the so-called "former gods," an ancestral generation of deities residing in "Dark Earth," the Hurrian underworld. The association between Ishara and Allani is already present in documents from the Ur III period. Veneration of them as a pair was an example of a broader phenomenon frequently attested in Hurrian sources, the worship of pairs of deities with similar spheres of influence as dyads. Other examples include Shaushka's attendants Ninatta and Kulitta, the fate goddesses Hutena and Hutellura, Hebat and her son Sarruma, and the astral deities Pinikir and DINGIR.GE6, so-called Goddess of the Night. A deity named Halma occurs in Ishara's entourage in Kizzuwatna. Halma is also attested in documents from Emar and possibly in the Persepolis Fortification Archive, though it is possible that the latter is an otherwise unattested Elamite deity with an accidentally similar name. Another god associated with Ishara in the same rituals was Saggar, assumed to be analogous to the Eblaite Sanugaru, who was worshiped with Ishara in Mane in the third millennium BCE already. Saggar was likely a moon god. Volkert Haas identifies him specifically as a divine representation of the lunar crescent. Other moon gods were associated with Ishara in Hurro-Hittite oath formulas. The god list An = Anum places Ishara in the circle of Enlil. It also states that she had a female attendant (munusSUKKAL) named Tašme-zikru (Akkadian: "She
