1[URU?].ú-zu-bi-⸢ia?⸣ “[the city] Uzubia (Izibia)”: The reading of these signs as a city name is based on the appearance of URU.uz-bi-a “the city Uzbia (Izibia)” in text no. 3 (Prism B) iii 47 in the account of Ashurbanipal’s attack on Mannea. Izibia/Ziba also appears as one of the Mannean cities conquered by Sargon II; see Frame, RINAP 2 p. 60 no. 1 line 87 and p. 142 no. 7 line 41.
