A page of the Linear A Lexicon's research wiki, in [Wiki](<https://linear-a.ai/wiki/index.md>) › [Kaphtor Lexicon](<https://linear-a.ai/wiki/lexicon/index.md>) › [Signs](<https://linear-a.ai/wiki/lexicon/signs/index.md>) › [Logograms](<https://linear-a.ai/wiki/lexicon/signs/logograms/index.md>). Updated 2026-10-24.

**Status: proposed.** A proposed value.

Evidence: \*307-PU₂-RE (PKZa8) ~ DU-PU₂-RE (PKZa15) supports a DU- onset, not the sense 'sanctuary'

Value from a spelling variant: JA-DI-KI-TE-TE-\*307-PU₂-RE (PK Za 8) and JA-DI-KI-TE-TE-DU-PU₂-RE (PK Za 15), \*307 in the place of DU. 8/0/0 inscription test (0 LESS READABLE). Forms: VIR+\*307 (sanctuary personnel; KH 9, 14, 19), OLE \*307 1½ (PE Wy 5, two signs), KU-RO \*307 156 (HT 127b), and \*307 doubled (A 638) heading the personnel lists HT 85a and HT 97a and HT 36.
