mulZAG.GAR (𒀯𒍠𒃻) is an ancient Mesopotamian asterism that only occurs in the commentary to the Urra XXII star-list, namely the series Urgud (Hg). Here the asterism is identified as the wife of the god Išhara, who himself is identified with Scorpio. No identification with any specific star(s) is possible.
Check Litke for Almanu and Išhara - the identification of DAM should be for wife - but in the original translation apparently Kurtik translates as Husband.???
Concordance, Etymology, History[1]
Star or constellation.
Occurs only in the Ḫg series. B VI:
- mulzag.gar = (omission) = DAM dbe-let ˹EDIN˺ "Zaggar = (omission) = consort of the Lady of the plains(?)" [MSL XI[2], 41:53].
In the same text, in a line above, the correspondence:
- (omission) = dal-ma-nu = DAM diš-ḫa-ra "Almanu = the wife of Išhara" [MSL XI[2], 41:52].
- Cf. dSag.˹gar˺ and dAl.ma.nu as Išhara's wife in the list of AN = dAnum gods (IV 281, 283) [Litke 1998[3], 166]. See also (Kurtik i17) dIšḫara.

| звезда или созвездие. Встречается только в серии Ḫg. B VI: mulzag.gar = (пропуск) = DAM dbe-let ˹EDIN˺ «Заггар = (пропуск) = супруг госпожи равнины(?)» [MSL XI, 41:53]. В том же тексте строкой выше приводится соответствие: (пропуск) = dal-ma-nu = DAM diš-ḫa-ra «Алману = муж Ишхары» [MSL XI, 41:52]. Ср. dSag.˹gar˺ и dAl.ma.nu как мужья Ишхары в списке богов AN = dAnum (IV 281, 283) [Litke 1998, 166]. См. также i17dIšḫara. | Example |
