Commentary

HT 110a .1 SI-DU-*34-KU-MI, all five signs whole and undotted, heading the tablet before CYP+E 20, then KU-PA 1, KU-RO 100[, NI 15[ (GORILA I 178–179). Ṣiduqi-kummi ‘the cella of Ṣiduq’: DU writes the u of Amorite ṣaduq and Damascius‘ Sadykos, SI the i of Ṣidqiyyāhû and Arabic ṣiddīq; kummu ’cella' (CAD K 533). Weak point: *34 = qi is a proposed value. Rival: a sentence name on ṣaduq. One attestation.
