| ENT_HRN_AGATHODAIMON | Agathodaimon as Harranian Prophet-Sage | Sabian/Harranian | figure | prophet-sage | revealed wisdom | devotional | C | candidate_verified_name | Roster build via gen_roster.py (see CHANGELOG/git for release) | 0 | 0 | 0 | Agathodaimon ('Good Spirit'), paired with Hermes in Hermetic literature, is named alongside Hermes as a prophet/teacher of the Harranian Sabians in the Fihrist tradition; lesser-attested than Hermes. Same figure as the existing pan-Hermetic ENT_LAT_AGATHOS_DAIMON_HERMETIC ('Agathos Daimon'), to which this Harranian-reception entity is wired (homonym/reception, not a duplicate). | sage | |||
| ENT_HRN_HERMES_TRISMEGISTUS | Hermes Trismegistus (=Idris) as Harranian Prophet-Sage | Sabian/Harranian | figure | prophet-sage | revealed wisdom, prophecy | devotional | B | candidate_verified_name | Roster build via gen_roster.py (see CHANGELOG/git for release) | 0 | 0 | 0 | The Harranian Sabians claimed Hermes (identified with Qur'anic Idris/Enoch) as their prophet and Hermetic writings as scripture, a claim that legitimized them under Islam; documented by Ibn al-Nadim and analyzed in Green. Wired by reception_of to existing ENT_HER_TRISMEGISTUS and equated_with ENT_ISL_IDRIS. | sage |
