PHILOLOGICAL COMMENTARY
- Collation shows evidence of a few broken sign after KU4?. The signs are not included in If a City 2 (192, 32.39’).
- The above protasis is similar to 32.A.32 and 32.S.31.
- In a note If a City 2 (169, n. 37’) suggests the commentary text K 1 r. 10 (CT 41 26-27; CCP 3.5.30 - Ālu 30-32 (“27-30”)) may refer to the above omen. The Cuneiform Commentaries Project (Jiménez 2016, CCP 3.5.30 - Ālu 30-32 (“27-30”), 45) reads and translates the omen as follows:
|
r. 10 |
NÍG.ME.GAR AL.KUD |
|
iš-di-iḫ-ḫu KUDas |
|
|
NÍG.ME.GAR AL.KUD |
means |
profit will cease |
If a City 2’s suggestion is likely due to the previous line of the commentary text (K 1 r. 9) being placed with 32.N.37’ (see the commentary above), where K 02708+ i 13’ is also placed. The placement, however, is highly speculative since the omen is fragmentary. We follow the CCP (Jiménez 2016, 3.5.30 - Ālu 30-32 (“27-30”), 45) and leave the commentary text unplaced.
