Commentary

HT 104 .2–3 I-DU-TI 20 ½, I at the end of .2, DU-TI at the head of .3, all three signs whole and undotted, the ½ dotted (GORILA I 171). Eblaite names built on yidu ‘strength’, as yidu-na ‘our strength’ (Pagan 1998, Ebla personal names, row 2466); TI is unexplained. Rivals: I-DU followed by TI as an ideogram, which GORILA’s note allows; Ida, written I-DA-A on KO Za 1. One document. See I-DU-NE-SI and JA-DI.
