Sorry for the cross-posting, but does anyone know of any ANE or biblical 
examples of a combatant cursing his opponent in the name of the opponent's 
gods, or cursing the opponent's gods themselves? This could apply to nations 
as well as individuals.

Both on-list and off-list answers, including references, would be welcome.

Hello Yigal,

The Table of Contents was posted here:

You're probably referring to the third article:
