<li>Reconstructions come from <a href="https://tieromina.acdh-dev.oeaw.ac.at/omens/Omen-32-A-63/tei">32.A.63</a>. See the commentary there for <em>If a City </em>2’s (189, 32.73) use of <em>ma-gal </em>as an adjective instead of the adverb it is. For the plural use of EME.ŠID, see <a href="https://tieromina.acdh-dev.oeaw.ac.at/omens/Omen-32-A-53/tei">32.A.53</a>.</li>
<li>The above omen might be an interpolation. Its placement in the middle of a sequence of omens about lizards giving birth seems misplaced. Further the same omen is placed in the Assur recension (<a href="https://tieromina.acdh-dev.oeaw.ac.at/omens/Omen-32-A-63/tei">32.A.63</a>) after the Assur sequence of lizard giving birth.</li>
<li>The sign read as –[<em>n</em>]<em>i</em><sup>!</sup> is drawn on the hand copy with a large vertical wedge, where one would expect two smaller ones. The sign is broken in any case.</li>
