## Commentary

SY Za 6, on the wall of a chalice-shaped serpentine libation table below the rim: one group of four signs, no divider (Muhly and Olivier 2008, 209–210: 01-09-60-04). SE uncertain, three uprights over a triangular base, paralleled only by HT Zb 158a; DA (SA not excluded), RA (a stemmed form) and TE probable. Amorite DA-ŠU-RA-TUM, a woman (Gelb 1980 no. 1489); rival SA for DA.
