<li>Collation of all the manuscripts confirms the reading NA between <sup>giš</sup>NÁ and E<sub>11</sub>. This sign is omitted from <em>If a City </em>2’s reconstructed transliteration (168, 32.32’) of the above omen and from all the manuscripts in the omen’s score (<em>If a City </em>2, 192, 32.32’, A i 10’, Ex(1)22, and Ex(7)17’).</li>
</ul>
<p style="margin-left:48px">Further, collation confirms that there are two, extremely broken, but visible, signs after ḪA at the end of line K 02708+ <em>i</em> 10’. The surface of the manuscript has broken off, but the signs’ traces allow for a reading of ˹ḪA˺.˹LA˺ ˹GU<sub>7</sub>˺.</p>

<li>The slight variations in the manuscripts are negligible. The term for lizards can be written either as EME.DIR or EME.ŠID. Similarly in the Neo-Assyrian period, NA or LÚ could be used interchangeably to mean ‘man’.</li>
