	Shulpae's name already occurs in the list of gods from Fara [Krebernik 1986<ref>''Krebernik M.'' Die Götterlisten aus Fāra // ZA. 1986. Bd. 76, Halbband II. S. 161-204.</ref>, 190:49]. According to one tradition, he was considered the husband of the "mother goddess" Ninhursag, who bore three children with him, including [[LI9.SI4\|<sup>d</sup>LI<sub>9</sub>.SI<sub>4</sub>]] (see Kurtik L07).

In AN: <sup>d</sup>''Anum'' (I 187, IV 269) he is identified with the god <sup>d</sup>Maškin.ge<sub>6</sub>.lu<sub>2</sub>.ḫar.ra.na, who is defined as an "evil god" (DINGIR ''lim-nu-um'') [CT<ref name=":10">''Cuneiform Texts from Babylonian Tablets in the British Museum.''</ref> 25, 22:42; Litke 1998<ref>''Litke R.L''.

In the Old Babylonian periods, Shulpae’s astral meaning, Jupiter, coincides with that of Marduk’s own astral definition. Among his epithets are ''eṭlu ša elât šamê uštappâ'' "the youth who appears with splendor in the heights of the heavens" [Tallqvist 1938<ref name=":9" />, 468].

The connection of Shulpae with Jupiter may be explained by his role as Marduk's vizier, which seems to be asserted in the poorly preserved text of the Astrolabe.
