====Associations with other deities==== Ugaritic and Akkadian god lists from [[Ugarit]] indicate that the theological view that Resheph and [[Nergal]] were analogous to each other was also accepted in this city.{{sfn|Streck|2008|p=252}} Some evidence exists for an association between Resheph and [[Ashtart]] reflecting their shared features, though it is not extensive.{{sfn|Smith|2014|pp=65-66}} In the standard Ugaritic lists of deities, Resheph follows “auxiliary gods of [[Baal]]” ([[Ugaritic]]: ''il t‘ḏr b‘l'') and precedes [[Dadmiš]].{{sfn|Pardee|2002|p=15}} Manfred Krebernik suggests that she might have been linked to Resheph in some way, possibly as his spouse, and additionally points out her name might be related to the Mesopotamian goddess [[Tadmuštum]], who was associated with the underworld.{{sfn|Krebernik|2013|p=205}} Nicolas Wyatt argues that based on their placement in lists it can be assumed that they were counted among Baal's divine helpers,{{sfn|Wyatt|2007|pp=74-75}} but Dennis Pardee maintains that there is no evidence in favor of viewing either of them as closely linked to the weather god.{{sfn|Pardee|2000|p=315}}
