**Status: resolved.** Listed among the resolved values of the sign table.

## Logogram

| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Gloss | talent |
| Commodity | talent, the largest weight unit |

### Note

Standalone arm only: after a commodity sign and before a numeral (HT12 wool, HT24b ×3 with 1¾, HT38, KN2), the talent, as Linear B \*118 L (Bartoněk 2003, 126; Killen 2024, 141). HT24b totals 4½; the recto wool total, restored as 45, gives the Linear B ratio of 10 to the talent (Del Freo 2020, 56).
