I made a mistake when I claimed Akkadian akilu = heel, apparently. I
cannot find it in the
dictionary unless I found it some other place.

here are the entries:

ashi:du = heel
eqbu(m) NA igbu? heel Bab.,
eqe-qu, ege-gu ~ to paralyse O/jB G (i/i?) stat. of person is paralysed
apaiaalû (a cripple)? JB;

I might have created "akilu". It might have been *aksadu; *apsa > aksa.
