Logogram

Field	Value
Gloss	palm/tree or palm produce; TAMIR and phonetic /mi/ are candidate identifications
Commodity	PALM/TREE
Semitic term	Hebrew tāmār, Akkadian gišimmaru
Root	t-m-r

Note

Semantic reading: PALM/TREE, based on the pictorial form and counted administrative contexts. TAMIR is the proposed Semitic lexical name, and /mi/ its proposed syllabic use. Both are speculative: TO-*49-RE yields t-m-r only after /mi/ is assumed, while Linear B tu-*49-mi places *49 beside ordinary MI. Dawmi for HT120 is a contingent name reading.
