After Baal was swallowed by Mot, his sister and consort, the goddess Anath, responded with a determined search to recover him. Upon finding Baal, she buried him and informed the head of the pantheon, El, of his death.12

Following the failure of other gods to assume Baal's role and restore fertility to the land, Anath took direct action against Mot. She confronted and defeated him, disposing of his body as if it were grain by grinding him up and scattering him over the land and sea. This act was instrumental in aiding Baal’s eventual resurrection and the restoration of life and fertility.132
