'''カシュク'''('''Kašku''' ("輝く星"))はハッティ族の月の神である。カシュクは「天からの月の墜落」の神話で知られている。それは月神が天空の自分の場所から墜落し、街の中心の市場に着地したという話である{{ill|Liḫzina|de|lt=Laḫzan}}。 The angry weather god Taru drenched him with a shower of rain and buffetted him with wind, which the goddess {{ill|Kataḫziwuri|de}} noticed while looking down from heaven, whereupon she and [[Ḫapantali]] carried out a ritual to calm Taru. The myth belongs to a ritual which was to be carried out by the "Man of the weather god, if the weather god thunders terribly."
