Commentary

Broken above; DI-NA-U stands twice (GORILA I 45).

Epigraphic note

NU (.3) and WI (.4) end their lines at the preserved right edge with no numeral; GORILA brackets both. DI-NA-U’s 1 opens .3. The left margin is damaged beside ZU (.4) and I (.5). SigLA divides .4–5 DU-RU-WI · I-KI-RA, I-KI-RA whole, with no sign lost before it. The lower left is broken, so whether a divider followed DU-RU-WI cannot be confirmed.
