Number: 2316
Proto-Semitic: *ʔa(n)z/d_ar-
Meaning: kind of wild cat
Akkadian: azaru (azzaru) 'lynx' OB on [CAD a2 527], [AHw. 92]. // In OB as a proper name only, relatively rare in also later texts also. The best known passage is that from Sanherib's inscription OIP 2 34 III 56 where azzaru occurs in comparison with Shuzubu, a king of the South Mesopotamian marshy area (kīma azzari ēdiš ipparšid 'he fled alone like an a.'). Departing from this passage, B.Landsberger identified a. with Lynx chaus (cf. [Landsberger Fauna 87], [Salonen Jagd 186]). In lexical lists equated to Sum. SA.A.RI.RI.
Geʕez (Ethiopian): ʔanzar 'wild cat' [LGz. 34]. // According to Leslau, a misprint for ʔanar (= Amh. ʔanär 'wildcat') which seems unlikely in view of the Akk. cognate above (note in particular the double -zz- in Akk. which well corresponds to -nz- in Gez.).
