Commentary

KH 5 .3 KU-PA-ZU, after WI-NA-DU · *301-NA ·, before a cyperus entry on .4 (GORILA III 25). ZU = zu, as in RU-ZU-NA: the Ugarit name ka-bi-iz-zi, Hurrian kabizzi ‘jewel’ (Monti 2017, 346), KU-PA for ka-bi a vowel mismatch only. DULAT 424 sets ka-bi-iz-zi beside kbs ‘fuller’, which ZU cannot spell. Rival on ZU = ṯu: kupṯu ‘headdress’, Ug. kpṯ, Akk. kub/pšu (DULAT 448–449). One witness.
