## Commentary

Context: Casa Room 7 commodity allocation — LM IB. Scribe: HT Scribe 19.

MI-NU-TE heads a quantified allocation and is read against Akkadian minūtu 'amount, number; reckoning' (CAD M/2 98), rather than as the goddess Minut. The three SI entries (5½ + 1 + 3 = 9½) may be sub-distributions. The separator followed by DA-[·] 8 + SI 3 begins a second party or category. Compare MI-NU-TE in the Addu section of HT86a.

## Epigraphic note

GORILA I 173: .1 CYP 6 J, the J dotted (its note: a trace after the six units, perhaps a seventh unit or a fraction); .4 DA-[·] 8[, the 8 dotted, a lost sign after DA, not a divider (its note: DA-MU difficult but not impossible); .5 ]SI 3[, both dotted.

## Lexicon entries

- [SI](<https://linear-a.ai/lexicon/SI/index.md>) (šay): tribute, gift—logographic abbreviation of šay(u); administrative category marker for goods designated as tribute/gift offerings. Probable.
- [CYP](<https://linear-a.ai/lexicon/CYP/index.md>) ((logogram)): cyperus, aromatic sedge (commodity logogram). Probable.
- [MI-NU-TE](<https://linear-a.ai/lexicon/MI-NU-TE/index.md>) (minūt): amount, number; counting, reckoning. Probable.
