## Commentary

Damaged administrative grain ledger, Casa Room 7, LM IB, HT Scribe 5. A broad diagonal lacuna crosses lines 2–3. KA-PA is read kapa(r) 'village', MA-ZU maṯu 'infants', I-KA ʾikkār 'farmer'. DI-RI-NA remains untranslated. WI is functionally excluded from the total by exact arithmetic.

## Epigraphic note

Damaged administrative grain ledger. A broad diagonal lacuna crosses lines 2–3; GORILA I 169 reads .3 ]VIR, the line broken before VIR (Younger ]VIR; SigLA VIR). DI-RI-NA remains an unidentified recipient or institutional entity. MA-ZU may compare with Ugaritic mṯ 'infant', and I-KA with Akkadian ikkarum 'farmer, plowman', but both lexical readings remain candidates. WI 10 is excluded from the KU-RO total: 976 + 33 + 33 + 10 + 3 + 5 = 1,060, whereas including WI gives 1,070.
