2According to the CAD (A/1 p. 338), al-gu-MES is of unknown reading and denotes a piece of jewelry. The word is probably related to alagamešu, a type of stone that appears to have been easy to carve.
3CContrary to RINAP 4 (p. 320), there is not sufficient space on the tablet to restore LUGAL KUR AN.ŠÁR (“king of Assyria”) between maš-šur-[PAP-AŠ] (“Esar[haddon]”) and DUMU-šá ([“[her son]”).
