The next quite detailed entry in RlA4 is also interesting, Ḫilaš(š)i, another "Genius des Hofes", including description of iconography, cult, attributes and groups of divinities he is involved with.

Did you know that already ? Cause you posting this without saying anything kinda implies that I guess XD

I technically knew it because i had already read the entry for Ḫilaš(š)i. I edited the previous post while you answered.

I remember reading about Hilaši, how it was specifically reffered to as the deified courtyard. I assume the "spirit" deities sharing the sipa sufix may be a bit different.

Looking up the most recent entry, I can't find any instances of "Udnamedinna" or "Irrababa" online.

I don't see any reason to space the signs, unless you're happy with the extra work. Because you've provided a transliteration in parentheses beside each entry, I think it'd be clear to anyone reading, and using a resource like the ePSD for comparison, to recognize that TUR3, as per your example, is composed of both signs.

I kind of have to say I sort of preffered the original signs used, as in black on a white background. It looked a little more close to the real thing, as I can't imagine a situation where you'd have cuneiform characters written out in white. But that may be just me.
As for the spacing, do whatever is more convenient to you. This is your project after all.
.....Not like I know a damn thing about cuneiform anyway. : /

I added your information, thank you. But there is still the normal writing missing... Here is the article for Izzištanu

Not sure if this is the best place for this kind of question, but since it relates to deity-names and cuneiform, I figured it might just be acceptable. So, my question is this: how, exactly, do Assyriologists / Sumerologists determine which value a particular sign has when working with its diverse potentials? I'll present the example which sparked my curiosity: In An=Anum, tablet I, ln. 269 we find the divine-name du 3-ma-ni-sa 2-di as one of Ninurta's personified buluŋ-instruments. With the help of the eTCSL and ePSD I was able to work out the cuneiform for this name as: 𒀭𒅆𒁳𒈠𒉌𒁲𒁲So, my confusion arises with the values "sa 2" and "di," both of which are represented by this sign: 𒁲Why is the name read "sa 2-di" instead of "sa 2-sa 2" "di-di" or some other variation?

There will be a bilingual list somewhere where the name is spelled out.

There will be a bilingual list somewhere where the name is spelled out. To Bill's annoyance I have to quote you since I don't know if you can tag people via messages otherwise, and that is to publically state I am glad you've picked this project up again, seeing how hard to get some of this information is for the layman.

In my last table is a puzzling entry for Kal(l)i: "Hittite divinity, belonging to the cult of the Ea-goddess" Was Ea female in the Hittite pantheon???

Post by hukkana on Oct 18, 2017 17:19:26 GMT -5
My first instinct would be that it's a mistake with the original entry, but of course I can be wrong. Though I remember nothing about this either in the Van Gessel, nor in any other paper or ritual concerning the Hittites that I ever ran across.

Kanabdu is mentioned together with Kahegal and Igihegal in this incantation ""This dark kishkanu tree, grown forth in Eridu in a holy place, Was to behold as clear (blue) lapis lazuli stretching out above the Deep. Full of bounty are Enki's haunts in Eridu, In his seat is the place of the portals to the nether world, On a couch in the bedroom of Nammu, From his holy dwelling the shadows fall as from a forest-inside no man may go with him, Inside are the sun-god and Ama-ushumgal-ana, between the mouths of the two rivers. The gods Kahegal, Igihegal, and Kanabdu of Eridu * Have dug out that kishkanu, have laid into it the spell of the Deep."" enenuru.proboards.com/thread/134/353-kan-tree-divine-mediator

Short explanation: For example this line (dku-li(-it/id)-ta/da),while looking cryptic, is like a sum of these possible writings: (dku-li-it-ta) (dku-li-it-da) (dku-li-id-ta) (dku-li-id-da) (dku-li-ta) (dku-li-da)
