## Commentary

IO Za 6, position 2 of the libation formula, complete and undivided: I-NA-TA-I ʿInatī 'my Anat' + ZU-DI ṯudī 'breast' + SI-KA šiqā 'she who gives drink'. Initial I carries ʿ, as syllabic Ugaritic writes ᵈa-na-tu₄ for /ʿanatu/ and ša-i for /šāʿi/ (Huehnergard 2008, 18 n. 78, 208, 249). Ugaritic gives Anat the title ṯd lʾimm 'the breast of the people' (KTU 1.13:19). See the lexicon entry.
