I forbid anyone from quoting "The hills are alive with the sound of music" in relation to Isaac's post.

Yes! AQAM is, indeed, a variant of
AQAB, AQAD, AQAL, AQAM, AQAP,*AQAC, AQA$
עקב, עקד, עקל, עקם, עקף, *עקץ, עקש
Possibly related to them is the latter עכוז AKUZ, 'buttocks'.
It appears to me that AQAM has a meaning related to QAM, 'rose', as 'to bend' is 'to lift up, to create a full hill-like shape'.
