Commentary

Two-recipient commodity allocation under a toponym heading. SA-RA₂ receives the bulk allocation and is treated as a royal recipient or establishment, not ‘remainder.’ SI-RU-MA-RI-TA₂ is one word (GORILA I 143), the second recipient, with token quantities. OLE+MI occurs only in its line, versus OLE+DI in the main line. *304 is an unidentified commodity ideogram in the oil/fat register; pidru(?) ‘fat, tallow’ is tentative.
