Salman (myth)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A god worshiped in pre-Islamic southern Arabia. Salman may have been the same as a West Semitic god called Shalman/Shalaman, which some scholars believe survives as a theophoric element in the names Solomon and Shalmaneser. The deity is also attested in texts from Ugarit, Palmyra, Hatra, and North and South Arabia.[1]
