## Remarks

Personnel roster from the Casa, Room 7 (Scribe 9), headed A-DU. Seven entries add up exactly to KU-RO 66: 12 + 12 + 6 + 24 + 5 + 3 + 4. The original is a clay tablet with a deep crack across the lower part (5.4 × 7.4 × 1.3 cm); so the Haghia Triada accounts don't all look alike, this stand-in carries its text cut on a thick water-worn pebble. Generated stand-in, not a scan: the shape follows the published description, the sign layout is approximate.

## 3D model

Created at Plasma AI; the text is shown on a stand-in object. Template model generated in the browser; texts after the project dossier and GORILA. Glyphs: Noto Sans Linear A (OFL), re-cut stroke by stroke.
