PHILOLOGICAL COMMENTARY
K 01350+, which is our main manuscript, has U4 10-KÁM. We take it as our main variant. Meanwhile, the two other manuscripts which preserve this part (K 06071+ and BM 03689+.2), have U4 30-KÁM, making their protases for 22.3 identical to the protasis of 22.4. It is therefore more likely that K 01350+ has the original protasis as meant in this sequence, writing U4 10-KÁM, and due to a later copying mistake, the other two manuscripts ended up with U4 30-KÁM.
K 02128+ omits this omen.
Freedman marks BM 036389+.2 as omitting this omen (If a City 2, 20, *22.3, e{{2}} omits), but in fact, line BM 036389+.2 5, which she places in *22.4 (p. 21), can be placed in omen 22.3, and line BM 036389+.2 6, which Freedman places in *22.6 (If a City 2, 21), can be placed in omen 22.4 (see there).
