PHILOLOGICAL COMMENTARY
  • If a City 2 (176, *32.36’) continues to reconstruct the protasis with DIŠ EME.DIR.MEŠ (see commentary at 32.A.105’), but otherwise reconstructs and translates (177, *32.36’) the omen roughly as above.
  • From the VAT 10167 r. 38’ onward, KAL 1 (16-17, 70–71 Rs. 38’–66’) no longer reconstructs the subject of the protasis.
