II. Identification.
As a constellation:
Since the Mouth is identified with the Deadman, we can consider these names as representing the same constellation/star in the constellation Delphinus(?) [Weidner 1959-60, 108, Anm. 22].
As an element of the figure of the constellation:

I. Источники. «Большой список звезд». mulka = mullu2.uš2 «Рот = Мертвец» [Mesop.Astrol., App. B:160; Weidner 1959–60, 107:22 u. Anm., Taf. XXXI iii 22]. Календарный ритуальный текст BM 55466+. a) pu-uš-ša2-ni-tu4 pu-u2 za-ni-tu4 šum3-šu2 ana muḫ-ḫi múlpî(ka) qa-bi «Пушшаниту его имя, что означает Сердитый Рот, так говорят, (когда имеют в виду) созвездие (звезду) Рот»; b) múlpû(ka) : múlpagru(adda) : ti-amat tu-u16-am-tu4 šum3-šu2 2 pa-nu-šu2 ziqar(nita) u sinniš(munus) šu-u2 «(Созвездие/звезда) Рот эквивалентно (созвездию) Мертвец, которое эквивалентно Тиамат. Его имя — женские близнецы, у него два лица – мужское и женское» [STC II, Pl. LXX r. 12; Reynolds 1999, 370–371, 376]. Dalbanna-текст. §K. [mu]l ka x x x [Walker 1995, 31; ASM, 106]; = [mu]lka l[u?.li]m? «рот Оленя» (ε Cas), согласно [Koch 1995, 58]. §z. mulka ur.gi7 «Пасть Пса (φ Her) [Walker 1995, 41; Koch 1995, 51, 64; ASM, 111]. См. также a09AD6, g24Gizzānītu. II. Отождествление. Как созвездие: Поскольку Рот отождествляется с Мертвецом, можно думать, что речь идет о названиях одного и того же созвездия/звезды в созвездии Дельфина(?) [Weidner 1959–60, 108, Anm. 22]. Как элемент фигуры созвездия: (1) UR.GI7, V 1 (u19). (2) LU.LIM, V 7 (L09). |
