Bibl. Arch. viii. 68. So Amlaud; and there seems some reason to believe that the name was used by the side of Utu, though perhaps only as an epithet. Compare birbiru, 'sheen, and the stem barû, 'to see, etc. See Keils Bibl. 3, I, 100. Reading of name uncertain. Suggested by Rawlinson, ii. 57, 10. See Schrader, Zeits. f. Assyr. iii. 33 seq.
This is a standing phrase in the inscriptions of Nebuchadnezzar, as well as of other kings. See Delitzsch, Assyr. Handwörterbuch, p. 270b. Deut. xii. 18; xvi. 14, etc. See pp. 462, 463. See ib. Or zag-mu. Gudea, Inscription G, col. iii. In the later inscriptions we find zag-mu-ku. The k or ku appears to be an afformative. See Amlaud, Zeits. f. Assyr. iii. 41.
