mulKA.AN.NA, The Heavenly Mouth, is a Mesopotamian name for the star cluster of the Hyades. It is well possible that the later asterism of the "Golden Gate of the Heavens" as a term for pathway between the Hyades and the Pleiades is a transformation of this old term.
Dictionary
Kurtik with Hilder, Hoffmann, Horowitz, Kim
Lit. "Heavenly Mouth"; the reading adopted in [G. 206] for the name of the constellation in the Astrolabe B menology (parallel to the Akkadian Is lê "Bull's Jaw"); an alternative reading and apparently the only correct one is mulGU3.AN.NA, cf. [Horowitz 2014, 34:26].
