Ugaritic Mot 'Death' (spelled mt) is personified as a god of death. The word is cognate with forms meaning 'death' in other
Semitic languages: with
Hebrew מות (moth or maveth); with
Canaanite,
Egyptian Aramaic,
Nabataean, and
Palmyrene מות (mwt); with Jewish Aramaic,
Christian Palestinian Aramaic, and
Samaritan מותא (mwt’); with
Syriac mautā; with
Mandaean muta; with
Akkadian mūtu; with
Arabic maut; with
Ge'ez mot. Although Semitic languages are not closely related to
Indo-European languages, the words for death in
Sanskrit ('mrit') and
Latin ('mortus') are similar.
