142 THE CUNEIFORM INSCRIPTIONS AND THE 0. T. expressed by ''rebel", "insurgent"; compare for example Khorsab. 14: matat na-ki-ri ka-li-sun "the lands of all (rebellious) enemies". The inscriptions of the Achae- menidae give, in place of n^kiru, nakru another form nikru, of which the plural is nikriiti "enemies", "insur- gents", Behist. 65 «&c. XXV. 4. ip^l^?)

Hincks) in a list of coloured materials in the same 155 connection, sequence and signification Khors. 142, 182: ta-kil-tu — ar-ga-man-nu "violet-blue— red purple." XXVII. 20. 13 light occurs also in Assyrian in the form ntir (comp. Arab. , J) especially in an applied sense. Thus in the inscription of Samsi-Ramm§,n (I Rawl. 32) line 11 Samas is designated as the "light of the gods". In Smith's Assurb. 155. 43 = V Rawl. 3. 113 the god "Bel, son of Bel" bears the same epithet. XXVIII. 19. "iD^ a precious stone, probably the agate. The corresponding Assyrian is sa-bi-I. Comp. II Rawl. 28 no. 5 line 27 kunukku sa sa-bi-i "seal of agate." The jasper can scarcely be meant, for this was represented, if we are not mistaken, by another ideogram. Berl. Akad.

Respect- ing the character of this deity and its position in the Assy- rian Pantheon, the inscriptions have not yet yielded precise information. NUMBERS. XIII. 22. ]Ti Zoan. See on Is. XIX. 11.

It may be conjectured to be the same as the P i t r u (P i - i t - r u *) of the Assyrian inscriptions, which should be placed, like Karkemish itself, on the i56 Western bank of the Euphrates, and also on the SadshCir (the Sagura, Sagurri of the inscriptions) which empties itself into the Euphrates from the West ; Salmanassar's Obelisk II Layard 89 line 37 foil.; Monolith of Karch in Rawl. 8. II, 36. 37 (comp. Keilinschriftt. u. Gesch. pp. 140 foil.; 220 foil.). The first passage reads thus: n. Bu-rat 1-bir, Ir a-na m. Assur u-sah as-bat; sa nir am-ma-[tl] sa n. Bu-rat, sa ili n§,r Sa- gur-ri sa nisi Hat-ta-ai ir Pi-it-ru i-ka-bu- su-ni a-na ra-ma-ni-ja as-bat i. e. "I crossed over (root '\2V) the Euphrates, the city (Til-Barsip) I carried away (root nOJ) to Assyria, I took ; what was on the other side of the Euphrates, what was upon the river Sagurri , what the Syrians call (~-p) city (of) Pitru, I took in possession for myself", see Keilinsch. u. Gesch. pp. 220 foil, note, and compare Delitzsch Parad. p. 269. XXIII. 22. DN-l, see on Deut. XXXIII. 17. XXIV. 22. ^3-fn -nti^N no 14^ nil when'?— then will Assyria carry thee forth captive. The passage contains a statement about the Kenites, to whom it is threatened that they should be carried away by the Assyrians. This threa- tening presupposes that, at the time when it was uttered, the Assyrians had already acquired in Western Asia an imposing position of superiority. It is now generally supposed that * This is not to be confounded with the P i t u r u of Asurnslsirhabal, which is to be sought for in quite another region: Keilinsch. u. Gesch. p. 221 note, p. 184.
