Concordance, Etymology, History[1]
ulBI.GIR3 is the currently accepted reading for an asterism in the circular diagram on the reverse of O. [TCL[2] 6, 13 i; Rochberg-Halton 1987b[3], 224-226].
Photographs of the obverse and reverse of TCL 6 13 (O 176) in the Musées royaux d’art et d’histoire (Brussels) are available in Horowitz 2014[4]: pl. XXVIII-XXIX.
The photographs (right) cannot confirm the reading given by Rochberg-Halton on the basis of the handcopy TCL 6 13. It is not completely certain that this is a star-name.
