## Commentary

Two-section commodity allocation. Section 1 headed by KI-RE-TA₂ Kret, a name counted 1 in the HT85b roster. Section 2 headed by TU-*21F-RI-NA 'the pure ones' (√ṭ-h-r, plural -īna), a recipient group receiving grain and oil variants. Line .1 reads GRA 33 J B (GORILA, SigLA), not GRA+B 33 J; on the photo and facsimile B stands after J, apart from GRA. Grain total across both sections: 74⅕ (33 7/10 + 40½). Three oil grades distinguished: OLE+DI (honey-oil), OLE+KI (standard), OLE (plain).
