mulBURRUM AN.NA (𒀯𒁓𒊒𒌝𒀭𒈾), "the Sparkling Night-Sky of Heaven". A pseudo-Sumerian term that occurs just the one time in The Great Star List as a feature of PA.BIL.SAG in Sagittarius. As written this must be taken as a Sumerian rendering of an Akkadian burrumū šamê; burrumū being a poetic name for the night sky (see MCG[1] 226-227). The original intent of the Sumerian may be understood as something like, ‘the sparkling night sky of heaven,’ perhaps originally referring to the background gleam of the night-sky in general or to the brightest clouds of the Milky Way in Sagittarius.
