1ddil-bat “the goddess Dilbat (the planet Venus)”: This deity is a manifestation of the goddess Ištar (see text no. 156). In the present list, the scribe has placed her after the god Nabû, the location where Ištar of Nineveh and Ištar of Arbela usually appear in such lists in Ashurbanipal’s inscriptions (see, for example, text no. 11 [Prism A] i 14–17). It is possible that this manifestation of Ištar is invoked here since the scribe had already mentioned Ištar by name earlier in the list of deities (obv. 7).
