II. Deity.

         dbēlet balāṭi — an epithet of Damkina [Tallqvist 1938, 57-58] who seems to have been identified with the star Vega. Its appearances were observed regularly in the Neo-Assyrian period: [...] mulGAG.SI.SA2 / mulLI9.SI4 (glossary: li-si) / mulbe-let TI.LA / an-nu-ti / pa-ni-u2-ti / ša ina pa-ni-ti / in-na-me-ru-ni "[...] (stars) Sirius, Antares, Vega — those are the first ones that already became visible" [LABS, 81: 1'-6', e. 7']. In connection with the lunar eclipse in front of Vega, in addition to other luminaries, there was the ritual of the "lending of the hands" (ŠU.IL2.LA2.KAM) [LABS, 240: 9]; see also [LAS 2: 177-178].

III. Identification.

         = α Lyrae (Vega) [G. 68; Schaumberger 1952, 229; ASM, 86];

         = η Lyrae [Koch 1992, 60];

         = α, ε, ζ Lyrae (according to VAT 16436:24) [ASM, 89].

II. Божество.

dbēlet balāṭi ― эпитет Дамкины [Tallqvist 1938, 57–58], которая, по-видимому, отождествлялась со звездой Вега. Ее появления наблюдали регулярно в новоассирийский период: […] mulGAG.SI.SA2 / mulLI9.SI4 (глосса: li-si) / mulbe-let TI.LA / an-nu-ti / pa-ni-u2-ti / ša ina pa-ni-ti / in-na-me-ru-ni «[...] (звезды) Сириус, Антарес, Вега ― те, что первыми стали уже видны» [LABS, 81: 1'–6', e. 7']. В связи с лунным затмением перед Вегой наряду с другими светилами совершали ритуал «Воздевания рук» (ŠU.IL2.LA2.KAM) [LABS, 240:9]; см. также [LAS 2, 177–178].

III. Отождествление.

= α Lyrae (Вега) [G. 68; Schaumberger 1952, 229; ASM, 86];

= η Lyrae [Koch 1992, 60];

= α, ε, ζ Lyrae (в соответствии с VAT 16436:24) [ASM, 89].
