## Commentary

Context: Peak sanctuary libation formula—Syme variant

MMIIIB date makes this among the earliest formula attestations. I-DA-MI in position 2 names Mount Ida, with the emphatic enclitic -mi, as JA-DI-KI-TU names Dikte at Iouktas and I-DA-A Ida at Kophinas. The trailing JA- at the break hints at a continuation into the standard formula sequence.
