1IGI.⸢II^*⸣ “eyes”: The text has IGI.⸢A⸣ according to G. Smith, Reports; the copy in Loftus, Notebook has only unclear traces at this spot.

2A longer list of the Aramean tribes in southern Babylonia is recorded in text no. 47 obv. 5–9.

3LÚ: Assyrian and Babylonian forms of the sign alternate.

4[a-di tam]-⸢tim⸣ “[as far as the S]ea”: Loftus, Notebook has [...]-⸢tim⸣; G. Smith, Reports has [šá]-MAŠ tam-tim; and Rost, Tigl. has [a]-di tam-tim.

5-<áš>-: So correctly Rost, Tigl.; G. Smith, Reports has -áš-, without indicating that the sign has been restored.

6[LUGAL].MEŠ-šú-nu “their [king]s”: Restored from text no. 51 line 12.

7For ^dKASKAL.KUR = Baliḫu, see Tadmor, Tigl. III p. 131, note to this line; Bongenaar, Ebabbar pp. 464–465; and Beckman, Emar p. 26.

8The restorations at the beginning of the lines are based on text no. 39 lines 11–12 and 14–17.

9-ma-at-⸢ti⸣: So G. Smith, Reports; Loftus, Notebook reads -ma-ma-⸢ti⸣.
