Commentary

KU-RO 292 sums the section total *307 156, KU 72, VIR+*313c 24, KI+MU 15, *301 11 and the erased KI+MU 14 (278 + 14): the scribe totalled before erasing (Younger 2023: ‘KU-RO 292 totals b.4–6, including b.4 KU-RO 156 and the erasure in b.6’). On the photo and facsimile the erased entry survives only as traces.

Epigraphic note

GORILA I 219: .2 ]NẸ 13[, broken before and dotted. KU-RO 292 sums the section total *307 156, KU 72, VIR+*313c 24, KI+MU 15, *301 11 and the erased KI+MU 14 (278 + 14), so the scribe totalled before erasing (Younger 2023). The photo and facsimile confirm every numeral; the erased entry survives only as traces. *307 counts the sanctuary’s personnel, as HT27a TI-NI-TA · *307. Younger’s HT 127 transcription reads *545 as KI+ME, his sign list KI+MU; the images do not decide the second element.
