2381	ENT_ARA_BAALSHAMIN	aligned_with	ENT_CAN_BAAL	medium	Baalshamin ("Lord of Heaven") and Baal Hadad ("Lord/Storm") are related but distinct deities in the Semitic tradition. Both are Baal-titles applied to sky/storm deities, but Baalshamin emphasizes the heavenly-sovereignty aspect while Baal Hadad emphasizes the storm-violence aspect. The distinction is made in Iron Age inscriptions (e.g., the Panamuwa inscription from Sam'al/Zinjirli invokes both Hadad and Baalshamin as distinct deities in the same text), demonstrating they were not simply identical. Confidence medium: the relationship is theological (two Baal-figures in the same tradition) rather than identity or explicit equation. Lipiński (2000) p. 583.
