Commentary

GORILA III 166–167: allocations under the ]-NU-TI heading, the ligature QI+SI (SigLA A512) to three entries, ewes (*21F, Younger’s OVISf) to the last two. Broken at the top and left, with an entry lost in the break before ]RỌ-SI-RA. ZA-[, ]-RA, ]RỌ-SI-RA, A-TA-NA-[·] and [·]-MA-JU are broken.

Epigraphic note

GORILA III 166–67 line .4–5: A-TA-NA-[·] QI+SI 2̣, one word with its last sign lost and no divider after NA (note: "A-TA-NA-TE possible"); line .5: [·]-MA-JU *21F 2. GORILA and SigLA (OVISf) read *21F on .5 and .6.
