  • If a lizard is sleeping on top of a man's bed and (then) falls off- that man will consume a share, relocation of the bed.
PHILOLOGICAL COMMENTARY
  • See also 32.S.30. Although the two omens have the same protasis and part of the same apodosis, the Sultantepe omen to omit nu-kúr gišNÁ ‘relocation of the bed’.
  • For the meaning ‘relocation of the bed’ for nu-kúr gišNÁ, see CAD N/1, 169 s.v. nakāru 11b. The above apodosis is partially quoted there.
  • Collation of K 03730+ 23’ confirms the sign NA ‘man’ after gišNÁ ‘bed’. The sign is omitted in If a City 2 (192, 32.34', Ex(1)).

Collation of K 12180+ i 8’ also reveals -ut immediately after the broken left-hand edge, before NA. If a City 2 (p. 192, 32.34, Ex(4)2 7’) omits the sign.

  • Both the above omen (32.N.34’) and subsequent omen (32.N.35’) are not present on K 02708+.
