| 2307 | ENT_MOA_ASHTAR_KEMOSH | cult_form_of | ENT_MOA_KEMOSH | medium | The compound name Ashtar-Kemosh (Mesha Stele line 17) most plausibly represents Kemosh in a specific warrior/destructive cult manifestation — the same deity in his ḥērem (sacred destruction) aspect. The Ashtar element (Ugaritic Athtar, the warrior Venus) qualifies Kemosh's function in the context of sacred battle.
