Identifications:

         (1) = Crab; mulLUL.LA = mulAL.LUL [BPO 2[4], III 7a], the basis of the identification is apparently wordplay [Reynolds 1998[3], 351].

Predictions:

         (2) General astrological meaning; mulLUL.LA ana ZI-ut IM [...] 'False Star for (predicting) the appearance (lit. rising) of the wind [...] [BPO 2[4], I 9, II 3, III 7].

         (3) Jupiter and the False Star meet; see (Kurtik s09) SAG.ME.GAR, III

         (4) False Star and planets; DIŠ dsar6-ru u dUDU.IDIM im-taḫ-ru-ma GUB.MEŠ ina MU BI ZI-ut NIM.MAki "If the False Star and a planet (together) meet and stand: this year is the year for attacking Elam" [ACh Suppl.[12], 49:11].

         (5) mulSar6-ru ana ŠA3 [...] "False Star to [...]" [BPO 3[8], 271, 83-1-18,783:5].

Historical Dictionaries

Kurtik (2022, L17) Gössmann (1950)
вар.: mulLUL; = mul / dSarru «Фальшивая (Лживая) Звезда», «Звезда-Лжец»; эпитет Марса [G. 249; CAD S, 184; Reinolds 1998].

I. Источники.

Лексич. тексты. (1) Одноязычные шумерские списки звезд: [mul]lul [MSL XI, 133, col. ix 5]. (2) Серия Urra XXII: [mul]lul = sa-ar-ru [MSL XI, 31, Section 11:3; Bloch–Horowitz 2015, 111:321ʹ], mullul/lul.la [SpTU III, 114A v 61]. (3) Серия Ḫg. B VI: mullul.la = sa-ar-rum = MIN (= dṣal-[bat-a-nu]) [MSL XI, 40:33]. ЕАЕ. См. [BPO 2, I 9, II 3, III 7–7a; BPO 3, 287]. «Рапорты». См. [ARAK, 288:3]. «Большой список звезд». (1) Список имен Марса: muls[ar6]-ru = dmin(= dṣal-bat-a-nu) «Л[жи]вая (звезда) = ditto(=Марс)», (2) 7 имен Марса (7 zik-ru-šu): mulsar6-ru [Mesop.Astrol., App. B:91, 237]. См. также ˹mulsa˺-a-ri [CT 26, 47, K. 11739:3].

II. Астрология.

Отождествления:

(1) = Краб; mulLUL.LA = mulAL.LUL [BPO 2, III 7a], в основе отождествления, очевидно, словесная игра [Reynolds 1998, 351].

Предсказания:

(2) Общее астрологическое значение; mulLUL.LA ana ZI-ut IM […] «Фальшивая Звезда для (предсказания) появления (букв. восхода) ветра […] [BPO 2, I 9, II 3, III 7].

(3) Юпитер и Фальшивая Звезда встречаются; см. s09SAG.ME.GAR, III

(4) Фальшивая Звезда и планета; DIŠ dsar6-ru u dUDU.IDIM im-taḫ-ru-ma GUB.MEŠ ina MU BI ZI-ut NIM.MAki «Если Фальшивая Звезда и планета (вместе) встретились и стоят: в этом году — нападение Элама» [ACh Suppl., 49:11].

(5) mulSar6-ru ana ŠA3 […] «Фальшивая Звезда к […]» [BPO 3, 271, 83–1–18,783:5].
