## Lexicon entries here

- [A-TA-I-\*301-WA-JA](<https://linear-a.ai/lexicon/A-TA-I-*301-WA-JA/index.md>) (ʾatainawaya): I make myself a dwelling (1cs tG-stem middle-reflexive denominative of √NWY). Confirmed.
- [JA-SU-MA-TU](<https://linear-a.ai/lexicon/JA-SU-MA-TU/index.md>) (yā Šumāt): O Šumāt! (vocative yā + divine name, plural of *šum- 'name'). Candidate.
- [U-NA-KA-NA-SI](<https://linear-a.ai/lexicon/U-NA-KA-NA-SI/index.md>) (wannā kanāsī / winnā kanāsī): So, behold my gathering! (conjunction + presentative + G verbal noun kanāsī + 1cs -ī). Confirmed.
- [A-JA](<https://linear-a.ai/lexicon/A-JA/index.md>) (ḥayyā): 'the Living One', title of the Goddess (√ḥ-y-y). Candidate.

## Remarks

The formula runs round the border of the table, beside the logograms for olive (with the numeral 1) and oil. The stone breaks after the final JA. Generated stand-in, not a scan: the shape follows the published description, the sign layout is approximate.
