Coma Berenices Constellation Names - HÉ.GÁL-a-a and ^dShala, Abundance

• From www.lexiline.com, it is noted that "Erua and Chegalaju," as references to stars in Coma Berenices which is seen in the following two sections.
  • The Erua is Akkadian form of the Sumerian A.EDIN.
    
  • Chegalaju seems to be a transliteration of the Sumerian HÉ.GÁL-a-a, Akkadian kakkab nushi.
  
  
• Sumerian HÉ.GÁL-a-a, Akkadian kakkab nushi, "Star of Abundance," is part of Coma Berenices (?), as part of Virgo.
  Sumerian hé-gál: abundance ('abundance' + 'to be available').
  So this Sumerian reference to a star or constellation should be called as stated "Star of (Great) Abundance,"
  since usually: -a-a or -A-A, means as if reduplicated "The Great."
  
  • ^dShala (Seen also in the Virgo constellation section is the following):
    • From www.lexiline.com, "The Seed-Furrow (AB.SIN), d.Shala (with the) sheaf of grain."    "AB.SIN rises 10 days after SHU.PA, which rises 60 days after KAK.SI.SA, thus it can only be the star SPICA (seed furrow, also refers to vulva.)."
      • Shala equates to Virgo, "The Woman," the Bright star.    Later named Spica, which as Ab-Sin (Sumerian) meaning "the furrow," and some call this Inanna's vulva.    Shala was also called Ishtar AB.SIN.
        • Abundance.
          • Hebrew shaluah, shal-vaw', and Hebrew shalvah, shal-vaw', from Heb. shalah, shaw-law', or Heb. shalav (Job 3:26 i.e. saftey), shaw-lav', a primary root to be tranquil, secure, prosper, thus security (genuine or false), abundance, peace (-ably), prosperity, quiteness.
        • In Assyro-Babylonian Myth, one of the many names that Anshar gave to Marduk after defeating Tiamat was Hegal.

              • Sumerian *ha: fish (not the usual word for fish, but the fish sign may get its syllabic reading of HA from *h 'many' + a 'water' = 'fish', an alternative to the usual ku₆, kua).
              • Sumerian há, hi-a: numerous; diverse; assorted; mixed.
