## Remarks

Grain account from the Casa, Room 7 (Scribe 6), substantially intact. A ruled line divides two sections: under A-KA-RU, emmer (KU-NI-SU, written beside the grain sign), SA-RU, DI-DE-RU and QA-RA₂-WA; under A-DU, DA-ME and MI-NU-TE. The same groups recur on HT 95a–b. The other face is an erased draft of the opening lines. Generated stand-in, not a scan: the shape follows the published description, the sign layout is approximate.
