#צַלְמָן   n.m.  statue, idol


  statue of a divinity, idol  JLAtg, Sam, LJLA.

In the JLA targums this word renders both תרפים and פסילים. Properly speaking attested so far only as an individuating plural of ṣlm, but a singular is presupposed here because it serves as the base of derivatives, q.v.
