Lacuna

Lacuna

1⸢a⸣-[na TI.LA-šú?] “fo[r his life]”: The restoration is conjectural. E. Frahm (Sanherib p. 222) reads the end of the line as ⸢a⸣-[na-ku a-na], “[I, for].” This restoration is unlikely because this section of the text is written in the third person; see UD.MEŠ-šú “his days” and lìb-bi-šú “his happiness” in obv. 8.

2dši-ka-gu: For information on the deity Šikaggu, the patron deity of leatherworkers, see Krebernik, RLA 12/5–6 (2010) p. 482.

3ú-še-piš-ma “he had made”: Because the third person suffix is used in obv. 8, the subject of the verb is probably third masculine singular.
