Ugaritic

mdgl - tower (DUL 530, Watson 2007: 93)

As rightly observed by D. Pardee (2000: 675), the meaning of the Ugaritic word is uncertain and its hypothetic relationship to the normal designation of tower (mgdl) remains to be substantiated. A borrowing from Akk. madgaltu is, at any rate, unprovable (Kogan 2015: 364).
