To facilitate accessibility, technical and linguistic commentaries as well as an excerpt series were compiled by the scholars of old. This ancient knowledge, which was still largely characterized by mythological concepts, was never completely abandoned, not even when the ‘calculating’ astronomy became prevalent in the first millennium B.C. The series deals in four parts with the moon, the sun, weather phenomena, and fixed stars and planets. This book offers an edition of the texts of the second half of the weather section with the accompanying material.Cuneiform Monographs43.Akkadian languageTextsOmensIraqBabyloniaAkkadian languageOmens492/.1Gehlken Erlend638114MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910824848603321Weather omens of Enūma Anu Enlil3924020UNINA
