Belly — Labāṣu affliction

Requested belly-labāṣu association

The belly marker is the backlog's explicit Labāṣu focus, joining a named afflicting agent to a broad abdominal field for visual navigation. Mesopotamian sources do not yield one normalized belly point for every Labāṣu passage, so the large uncertainty radius and editorial wording are deliberate.

Head — fever and oppressive attackFace and eyes — hostile gazeThroat — seized breath and speechChest and heart — constrictionBelly — Labāṣu afflictionBelly — Labāṣu afflictionPelvis — generative vulnerabilityLimbs and skin — spreading disturbance

Maqlû (The Burning) (primary_canonical)

Tablets I–VII preserve Babylonian anti-witchcraft incantations and the accompanying nocturnal burning ritual; the series documents agents, symptoms, and ritual countermeasures but does not provide a normalized anatomical chart.

Canonical Udug-hul incantations (scholarly_modern)

Edition and study of the canonical udug-hul exorcistic corpus, including its language of demonic attack, bodily distress, and the exorcist's ritual response; it is used here to distinguish textual affliction language from this editorial body projection.
