Samnuha or Samanuha was the tutelary deity of Shadikanni (Šadikanni; modern Tell 'Ağağa) in the lower Habur area.
[4] Bel-Eresh, a ruler of Shadikanni who was a contemporary of Ashur-resh-ishi I,[5] renovated the temple of Samanuha and a deity identified by Stephanie Dalley as Kubaba, the Hurrian goddess of Carchemish,[6] but whose name was actually spelled dGu-ba-ba.
[2] He appears in an inscription of Ashurnasirpal II, where he is acknowledged as the personal god of the provincial governor Mushezib-Ninurta,[8] the son of a ruler of Shadikanni who bore the theophoric name Samanuha-shar-ilani.
[9] He is also attested as one of the Hurrian deities from Taite (originally a major Mitanni city[4]) in Tākultu, alongside Kumarbi and Nabarbi.
[10] Personal names attest that Samanuha continued to be worshiped at least until the Achaemenid period.
