Commentary

Mixed grain, vessel and personnel ledger in two sections, the first opened by PA₃-NI-NA and the second by PA₃-NI-NA[, broken after. No KU-RO on this face. Face b ]165 H is the apparent total: the preserved entries reach 161⅜ + H, and breaks on .6–.9 hold the rest. Ligatures RE+SE, DA+RE+SE, GRA+PA unread; GRA PA₃ and I GRA+PA are pairs of separate signs.

Epigraphic note

GORILA I 147: .6–7 O-TI-[·] 3, a sign lost after TI, O-TI-RO not impossible (note). GRA and PA₃ (.1) are two separate signs. I and GRA+PA are separate signs at both occurrences: the first I ends .3 and its GRA+PA opens .4; no divider shows between them (photograph and facsimile).
