(3) See Winckler, _El-Amarna_, pl. 35 f. , No. 28, Obv. , Col. II, l. 45, Rev. , Col. I, l. 63, and Knudtzon, _El-Am. Taf. _, pp. 112, 122; the vessels were presents from Amenophis IV to Burnaburiash.
It we may connect the word with the magical colouring of the myth, wemight perhaps retain its known meaning, "jar" or "bowl", and regard itas employed in the magical ceremony which must have formed part ofthe invocation "by the Soul of Heave...n, by the Soul of Earth". Butthe accompanying references to the ground, to its production from theground, and to its springing up, if the phrases may be so rendered, suggest rather some kind of plant;(1) and this, from its employment inmagical rites, may also have given its name to a bowl or vessel whichheld it. A very similar plant was that found and lost by Gilgamesh, after his sojourn with Ut-napishtim; it too had potent magical power andbore a title descriptive of its peculiar virtue of transforming old ageto youth.
