#REDIRECT [[Girra]]
<sup>mul</sup>GIBIL<sub>6</sub> (𒀯𒉈𒄀) is the astral manifestation of the Sumero-Akkadian fire-god Girra.  In Old Babylonian Prayers to the Gods of the Night, Girra is an independent constellation which may also be the case in the contemporary myth 'Girra and Elamatum' when complete. Later, Girra becomes identified with Mars because of the planet's fiery red-orange color (see Horowitz 2020: 142-143). 




???Probably to be added NE.GI.IZI,GAR = N13???
