II. Deity.

         The identification of the Celestial Wagon with Damkiana, adopted in MUL.APIN I i 20, is nowhere else attested and seems to be of rather late origin. The identification of parts of the constellation with deities is often found in spell texts [Reiner 1995].

I. Источники.

MUL.APIN. (1) Список звезд Энлиля (№ 19, 20): a) mulMAR.GID2.DA.AN.NA dDam-ki-an-na «Повозка Ану, Дамкиана» (I i 20), параллель см. [Horowitz 1989–90, 116, BM 54817:8']. b) «Звезда на ее веревке», см. i02IBILA.E2.MAḪ. Stev.O.T. mulMAR.GID2.DA<AN.NA> GAL «Повозка [Ану] Великая» ― в предсказании, см. i02IBILA.E2.MAḪ. Список «6 дворцовых женщин», см. a02A.EDIN. Заклинание. О получении благоприятного или неблагоприятного знака во время сна перед началом путешествия: EN2 mulMAR.GID2.DA.A[N.N]A [MA]R.GID2.D[A ša2-ma-m]i ša2 ni-ir-ša2 dNIN.URTA / ma-šad-da-ša2 dAMAR.U[TU bu]-ba-tu-ša2 DUMU.MI2.<MEŠ> dA-nim ša2 AN-e KU3.MEŠ / ana IGI Aš-šurki nap-˹ḫa˺-[a]t ana IGI K[A2.DINGIR.R]Aki IGI-ša2 šak-nu «Заклинание.

II. Божество.

Принятое в MUL.APIN I i 20 отождествление Небесной Повозки с Дамкианой нигде более не засвидетельствовано и имеет, по-видимому, достаточно позднее происхождение. Отождествление частей созвездия с божествами нередко встречается в текстах заклинаний [Reiner 1995].

III. Символ.

Повозка. Описание в VAT 9428 r. 8–9: mulMAR.GID2.DA.AN.NA ka-lak-ku a-na IGI ma-šad-di ša2 mulMAR.GID2.D[A] / u3 ma-šad-da-ša2 IGI ka-lak-ku ša2 mulMAR.˹GID2.DA i˺-ma-ša2-a[l] «Небесная Повозка – это фургон перед дышлом Повозки, и ее дышло перед фургона Повозки аналогичным образом» [Weidner 1927, 75, 77; Beaulieu et al. 2018, 23, 25, Section VIII].

IV. Отождествление.

= Ursa Minor [G. 259; Weidner 1957–59, 79a; BPO 2, 13; MA, 137; ASM, 276; Beaulieu et al. 2018, 74].

V. Части созвездия и отдельные звезды.

(1) MUL ša2 ina ṭur-ri-šu2 GUB-zu «звезда, которая на ее веревке (вар.: связи, узле) стоит» (= α Ursae Minoris (?)), см. i02IBILA.E2.MAḪ.
