<sup>(mul)</sup>DILI (𒀯𒀸) is a general term referring to single-star asterisms, typically one-star features of constellations or constellation parts.  Examples include  MUL DILI ''ša<sub>2</sub>'' KUN-''šu'', the single star of its (the Lion's) tail (β [[Leo]]<nowiki/>nis) and the single star in the knee of the ‘the Goat’ (μ [[Hercules|Her]]).  Kurtik (2007) has two entries, (d07) [[DILI]] and (d08) DILI ''ša<sub>2</sub>'' KUN-''šu<sub>2</sub>'' (the single star in Leo) that we merge here.

(mul)DILI (𒀯𒀸) is a general term referring to single-star asterisms, typically one-star features of constellations or constellation parts.  Examples include  MUL DILI ša2 KUN-šu, the single star of its (the Lion's) tail (β Leonis) and the single star in the knee of the ‘the Goat’ (μ Her).  Kurtik (2007) has two entries, (d07) DILI and (d08) DILI ša2 KUN-šu2 (the single star in Leo) that we merge here.

Concordance, Etymology, History

Kurtik with Hilder, Hoffmann, Horowitz, Kim

Variant readings:

  • mulDIL, mulAŠ; = ēdu "single, unique, separate (star)";

Var. designations:

  • 1) = ziqpu VI, a group of stars in Hercules [Gössmann[1] 108; AHw[2], 1495a],
  • 2) in the title of ziqpu XXIV, see (Kurtik d08) DILI ša2 KUN-šu2.

Special Case (Kurtik, d08):

  • "the single star on its (Leo's) tail" = ziqpu XXIV (β Leonis) [Gössmann[3] 162, IV 3].
