    Very close, she was a caananite goddess, which is where Israel/Palestine would be today. She was the consort of Yahweh historically, but very infrequently mentioned in the Tanakh. There are a lot of theories about her being edited out when judaism became a monotheistic religion. Not a lot of that supported in history, which obviously would happen if she was edited out and many of the previous copies were destroyed. Either way, fun conspiracy theory.
