1mLUGAL-GI.NA “Sargon (II)”: How Sargon’s name was written here is not certain. Sennacherib very rarely names his father in his inscriptions. Text no. 163, an inscription reminiscent of the so-called “Sin of Sargon” text (see Tadmor, Landsberger, and Parpola, SAAB 3 [1989] pp. 3–52; and Livingstone, SAA 3 pp. 77–79 no. 33), is the only other known official inscription of Sennacherib mentioning his father by name. Since the tablet was probably inscribed in the reign of Esarhaddon or Ashurbanipal, Sargon’s name may have been written here, for example, as LUGAL-GI.NA, LUGAL-GIN, mLUGAL-GIN, mMAN-GI.NA, or mMAN-GIN.

2E. Frahm (Sanherib p. 195) suggests that one could restore a-di ERIM.ḪI.A ELAM.MA.KI re-ṣi-šú “together with the troops of (the land) Elam, his allies” or i-na ta-mir-ti kiš.KI “in the plain of Kish.” There is not sufficient space to restore both. Cf., for example, text no. 22 i 21–22.
