ul/mul4KAL.NE (𒌌𒆗𒉈). This asterism is known from two omens, one of which is included in the series MUL.APIN. Given that both signs KAL and NE have numerous readings, we cannot how this name is to be read, but the context in MUL.APIN, in a sequence of omens for constellations and planets, suggests that KAL.NE also belongs to this general category.

Dictionary

Kurtik with Hilder, Hoffmann, Horowitz, Kim

[G. 98]; the name occurs in prediction texts from EAE and in MUL.APIN.

Sources Identifications
EAE.
  • DIŠ mulUG5.GA ana ulKAL.NE TE SU.GU7 GAL-ši "If the Raven approaches the star KAL.NE: there will be famine" [ACh Ištar, 24:9; ACh Suppl. 2, 81:3; MA, 134]; it is not clear which luminaries are referred to in this case.
MUL.APIN.
  • mul4KAL.NE IB2.TAG4 RU ana 4 MUL4.ME ša2 MUL4.MUL4 TE U URU ḪIme "If the star KAL.NE ... (and) approaches the four stars of the Pleiades: the ruler(?) of the city will be prosperous(?)" (II iii 32) [MA, 112]. This is the only text known to us that speaks as if there were 4 stars within Pleiades, where in which we would usually speculate 7 stars, see (Kurtik m35) MUL2.MUL2. In the new edition of MUL.APIN this line looks different: DIŠ mul5KAL.NE IB2.TAG4 RU ana 4 MUL5.ME šá mul5AŠ.IKU TE U URU GAM.ME "If the star KAL.NE ... (and) approaches the 4 stars of the Field (var.: Stars - “stars” or “star cluster”?): the ruler of the city will die" [Hunger-Steele 2018, 158-9]. The determinative mul5 here corresponds to mul4.

Historical Dictionaries

Kurtik (2022, k15) Gössmann (1950)
[G. 98]; название встречается в текстах предсказаний из EAE и в MUL.APIN.

I. Источники.

ЕАЕ.. DIŠ mulUG5.GA ana ulKAL.NE TE SU.GU7 GAL-ši «Если Ворон приближается к звезде KAL.NE: будет голод» [ACh Ištar, 24:9; ACh Suppl. 2, 81:3; MA, 134]; неясно, о каких светилах в данном случае идет речь. MUL.APIN. mul4KAL.NE IB2.TAG4 RU ana 4 MUL4.ME ša2 MUL4.MUL4 TE U URU ḪIme «Если звезда KAL.NE … (и) приближается к 4 звездам Плеяд: правитель(?) города будет благополучен(?)» (II iii 32) [MA, 112]. Это единственный известный нам текст, где речь идет как будто о 4 звездах Плеяд, в которых выделяли обычно 7 звезд, см. m35MUL.MUL. В новом издании MUL.APIN эта строка выглядит по-другому: DIŠ mul5KAL.NE IB2.TAG4 RU ana 4 MUL5.ME šá mul5AŠ.IKU TE U URU GAM.ME «Если звезда KAL.NE … (и) приближается к 4 звездам Поля (вар.: Звезд): правитель города умрет» [Hunger–Steele 2018, 158–9]. Детерминатив mul5 здесь соответствует mul4.
