Abstract

AbstractAn incubation is a ritual during which one sleeps and sometimes tries to get a special dream. The Hittite texts describe two different kinds of incubation: a divinatory one (in order to get a message-dream) and a therapeutic one (in order to heal the sleeper). The contexts in which the divinatory incubation occurs seem different from the ones in which the therapeutic incubation is used.
