II. Deity.
Erua is the goddess of pregnancy [Tallqvist 286], her standard epithet is ba-nat2 ri-Cu-tu2 , lit. "she who creates the seed”; as such was she addressed during the Babylonian New Years festivities [RAcc. 139: 331], see also [CAD R 343a].
Analogous meaning was given to the name of the goddess Za/erbanītum (from zēru “seed” and banû “to create, to build”), from whom Erua was identified with.
Prayers and Rituals.
- (1) Ritual performed at night to obtain a favorable omen in a dream: A.MEŠ KU3.MEŠ ana IGI mulMAR.GI[D2.D]A 3-šu2 ana IGI dE-ru-u2-[a] 3-šu2 til-liC ZID2.MAD.GA2 ŠUB-uk "Consecrate the waters before the constellation of the Chariot three times (and) in front of the goddess Erua, sprinkle the water three times, and the flour four times."
- (2) Ritual of the "washing of the mouth" (mīs pî) or the "revitalizing” of the divine-statues. see (z10) Zibānītu, II.
III. Symbol.
Description of the constellations in Neo-Assyrian texts: mulE4-ru6 ral-m[u lu-bu-uš-tu]m kur-ku-ra GAR-in / 1 MUL ina SAG-šu2 e-[rir qin-na-za ina Š]U ZAG-šu2 na-ši dir-rat qin-na-zi-šu2 / ina UGU KUN mulUR.

[Weidner 1927 75-77, VAT 9428 r.1-3]. In the same text (r. 5) there is mention of šašallu ša2 mul[E4-r]u6 "Hind/back/spine of Erua." [Weidner 1927 75].
In the Seleucid texts we find: sis-sin-nu ina ŠUII 15-ša7? "a branch in her right hand (she holds)." [LBAT, 1510:11]; "the branch of a date palm", according to [MA 125], see also [CAD S 326].

Эруа ― богиня беременности [Tallqvist 286], ее стандартный эпитет ba-nat2 ri-Cu-tu2 , букв. "творящая семя"; так к ней обращались в Вавилоне во время празднования Нового года [RAcc. 139: 331], см. также [CAD R 343a]. Аналогичный смысл имело имя богини Za/erbanītum (от zēru "семя" и banû "творить, строить"), с которой отождествлялась Эруа. Молитвы и ритуалы.

В этом же тексте (r. 5) упоминается šašallu ša2 mul[E4-r]u6 "Спина Эруа" [Weidner 1927 75]. В селевкидском тексте находим: sis-sin-nu ina ŠUII 15-ša7? "ветвь в своей правой руке (она держит)" [LBAT, 1510:11]; "ветвь финиковой пальмы", согласно [MA 125], см. также [CAD S 326]. Фигура созвездия в различные эпохи и в разных традициях ç, по-видимому, по-разному, финиковая ветвь была только eе частью. IV. Отождествление: Как созвездие: = западная часть Virgo (без α Virginis) + Coma Berenices [G. 126]; = 12-17 Comae Berenices [Schaumberger 1952 223]; = Coma Berenices + Canes Venatici [Weidner 1957-59 78]; = γ+ Coma Berenices(?) [BPO 2, p. 10]. Последнее отождествление, восходящее к Шаумбергеру, является наиболее предпочтительным. Как ziqpu-звезда: = γ Comae Berenices [Schaumberger 1952 229; MA 142; Pingree-Walker 320; Koch 1992 58]. Согласно VAT 16436:16, mulA.EDIN, как ziqpu-звезда, содержало 6 звезд [Schaumberger 1952 223, 226]; на диаграмме из Sippar Planisphere ей соответствует, по-видимому, кружочек из 6 точек [Horowitz-al-Rawi 176-178].
