1The restoration of damaged text is based on text no. 49 obv. 15´–19´.
2According to a parallel passage in text no. 49 obv. 16´, one expects x x x to be read as ú-rad-di (“I added”), but the copy in Layard, MS A does not perfectly fit this reading of the signs.
3pi-a-ti “bank”: The authors have tentatively understood this word as piātu (CAD P p. 358). Alternatively, following von Soden (AHw p. 874 sub pû I), pi-a-ti could be interpreted as “sources.”
