Commentary

Personnel list (HT Scribe 9). The nine entries sum to 159 against KU-RO 160, rounded (Younger 2023). The total includes *327 34 and VIR 68, so every entry counts persons. *327 heads a personnel list in the same slot on HT97a (*327 33).

Epigraphic note

GORILA reads VIR+[?] 68; on the photo and facsimile the patch after VIR is damage, with no legible added sign. The numerals read *327 34 (three tens, four units), VIR 68 (six tens, eight units) and KU-RO 160 (one hundred, six tens). The nine entries sum to 159 against KU-RO 160, rounded (Younger 2023). The total includes *327 34 and VIR 68, so every entry counts persons: KU-PA₃-NA-TU 7, Kubānatu ‘devotees of Kubaba’, is a personnel group and TI 7 a personnel category. *327 33 stands in the same slot on HT97a. RI-MI-SI matches the Amorite name element Rimši (Gelb AS 21, nos. 831, 3912, 5285–5286). *327 and *345 are unread.
