tabḫištu (?)

Booked in AHw. under tapṭartu. Reading and etymology remain unclear, see Streck 2000, 118 with prev. lit. If the word is of Akkadian origin, the orthography allows a derivation from either beʾēšu “to stir” (“mixing vat”, as suggested in OBTR 151) or paʾāṣu “to grind” (“grinding vat”). Since the identification of the azamru-fruit is also uncertain, both derivations are questionable.
