Hurrians - Merneptah Stele to the Puranas - and ofcourse Keret!!!

In the previous blog entry I discussed the Merneptah Stele and the Hurro reference in it. Frank Moore Cross in "Cross Cannanite Myth and Hebrew Epic" discusses Keret and notably his wife Hurriya as follows, "The prize of the campaign will be fair Hurriya, Pabel’s first-born, the gift of ‘El to Keret
to provide him with progeny.‘".

It is surprising to me that the reference to Hariya from Purana all the way to Merneptah is clearly missed. Throw in the link to Naharim and we have a clear Puranic link. The references are discussed in detail in both my paper on Ras Shamra/Keret as well as in the book, "The H-Source of the Bible".
The legend of Keret is a readaptation of the story of Bhageeratha in the Bala Kanda of the Valmiki Ramayana.
The people of Hari are referred to also back in Purana, but why did the various scholars keep Hindu references completely out of their interpretations? - of Keret, and even more surprisingly the Ba'al Cycle. I have not yet heard why?

Before I turn to the Puranic References to the Hurrians, I am going to again provide the broad Ras Shamraic Parallels.
(1) El is Brahma
(2) Ba'al is Rudra (or Shiva)
(3) Athirat is Saraswathi
(4) Anat is Parvati or Durga
(5) For Yahweh please read my book

Puranic references to the Hurrians

I am going to refer to the two main ones, but I assume there are more. The Bala Kanda Ramayana has Sarga 55, 

In Sarga 55, we have the war between Sage Vishwamitra and Sage Vashistha,

2, 3. tasyaaH hum kaarataH = of her, from 'hum' mooing; ravi sannibhaaH kaambojaa jaataaH = Sun, similar in shine, Kaamboja-s, are born; atha = further; uudhasaH = from udder; shastra paaNayaH = weapons, in hands; pahlavaaH sanjaataaH = Pahlava-s, are born;yoni deshaat yavanaH ca = from privates, area, Yavana-s, also - are born; tathaa = likewise; shakR^i deshaat shakaaH = from rectal, area, Shaka-s - are born; roma kuupeSu mlecChaaH ca = from hair, roots, Mleccha-s, also - are born; sa kiraatakaaH = with, Kirataka-s;haariitaaH = Haariitaa-s - are also born.

“From the 'hums' of her mooing Kaambojas similar to sunshine are born, from her udder Pahlavas wielding weaponry are born, from the area of her privates Yavanas, likewise from her rectal area Shakas, and from her hair-roots Mlecchas, Haariitaas along with Kiratakas are issued forth.“

That the Kiratas are mentioned along with the Harithaas is very significant, notably when considering the fact that this is the Bala Kanda. How would the author of the Ramayana know about the story and the relationship between the two stories – namely Keret and Ramayana? And about the relationship of the Kiratas and the Hurrians? There is also a Van Province today in Eastern Turkey with a Kirata City, and in Balochistan-Iran border, the Kirthar Range. 

This is not the only reference to the Hurrians. The Matsya Purana also refers to the Hariyans, "Daksha married Panchanjani. Daksha and Panchajani had one thousand sons. These were known as the Haryakshas. Daksha asked his sons to create more living beings.

But the sage Narada came and told the Haryakshas, ―You can‘t possibly create living beings unless you know where they are going to live. Have you explored the universe that your creations are going to populate? Why don‘t you start out on a voyage of discovery?‖

The Haryakshas did this and have never been heard of since. They did not return."

These references help us with "connecting the dots". So now we have a clear link of how people who knew the Ramayana and the Matsya Purana and had Indic Origins came to be in Canaan. 

And that is how we ended up with such a close set of links between the Puranas and the Bible and the people who lived in Canaan.
