Commentary
LM IB aromatics-and-foodstuffs ledger headed by KA-NA with a divider. Face b repeats the opening with NI-RA in KA-NA’s slot. The value of fraction H is not settled. RI of *21F-RI-TU-QA and the second SA of SA-SA-ME are dotted, and GORILA records SA [units] ME as a less satisfactory reading of .4–5. In E 17 the ten is written after the units (GORILA I 41).
