Bel, signifying "lord" or "master", is a title rather than a genuine name, applied to various gods in Babylonian religion.
Bel is represented in Greek and Latin by Belos and Belus respectively.
Bel became especially used of the Babylonian god Marduk and when found in Assyrian and neo-Babylonian personal names or mentioned in inscriptions in Mesoptamian context it can usually be taken as referring to Marduk and no other god.
