1The RN was probably read Salmānu-ašarēd, instead of the long accepted Šulmānu-ašarēd. See Radner, WO 29 (1998) pp. 33–51.
2⸢LUGAL?⸣: The reading is not entirely certain. Fales interprets the traces as ⸢MAN⸣. J. Novotny collated the inscription and informed the authors that the faint traces match the shape of the LUGAL sign written on BM 91226 (Shalmaneser text no. 2).
