Hutena and Hutellura appear in kaluti (offering lists) of the goddess Hebat and her circle, usually following her servant Takitu and preceding the pair Ishara and Allani. In the Yazılıkaya sanctuary, they are likewise placed right behind Hebat, her daughters and Takitu, with the figures representing them labeled as 47 and 48 in modern scholarly sources. An exception is known from the Hurrian offering lists from Ugarit, where Hebat is followed by Ishara and Allani, while Takitu, Hutena and Hutellura are placed behind this pair. Hutena and Hutellura were most likely originally incorporated into Hebat's court in ancient Aleppo. In rituals they could also appear in relation to Ea, Damkina and Izzummi (the Hurrian name of Isimud), who in Anatolia were part of the Hurrian pantheon. Mythology Hutena and Hutellura appear in the myths Song of Hedammu and Song of Ullikummi, both of which belong to the cycle of Kumarbi. In the latter text, they are present during the birth of the eponymous stone monster, and present him to his father Kumarbi. In Hittite translations both of this cycle and other Hurrian myths and ritual texts they are substituted with the Gulšeš and DINGIR.MAH.
