Commentary

HT 23a: five entries at the same fraction under KA-NA (*308, OLE+NE, OLE+TU, OLE+RI, MI+JA+RU); also HT 28a and TY 3a (OLE+TU 1). The OLE ideogram with the TU adjunct, TU the initial of ṭuhūru ‘purified’: Ug. ṭhr /ṭuhūru/ ‘pure’ (Huehnergard 2012, 45), Heb. ṭāhôr; Linear A writes √ṭ-h-r in TU-*21F-RI-NA ṭuhārīna (HT 129). Cf. *OLIV+TU (HT 50a, HT 101, HT 116a). Three attestations.
