1The restoration is based on similar passages in the inscriptions of Sennacherib and Esarhaddon: for example, gim-ri ṣal-mat SAG.DU ú-šak-niš še-pu-ú-a “He made all of the black-headed bow down at my feet” (Luckenbill, Senn. p. 23 i 15); and kul-lat la ma-<gi>-re-e-šú mal-ki la kan-šú-ti-šú GIM GI a-pi ú-ḫa-ṣi-iṣ-ma ú-šak-bi-sa še-pu-uš-šú “He broke all of those disobedient to him (and) rulers unsubmissive to him like a reed in the swamp and trampled (them) underfoot” (Leichty, RINAP 4 p. 184 Esarhaddon 98 obv. 32–33).
