1[mtam-ma-ri]-tu la ŠEŠ mum-man-i-gaš “[Tammarīt]u — (the one who is) not the brother of Ummanigaš”: The notation that Tammarītu is not the brother of Ummanigaš (Ḫumban-nikaš II) is likely included here to differentiate him from the Tammarītu who was the younger brother of Ummanigaš and whom Ashurbanipal installed as king in the city Ḫidalu. For the filiation of Tammarītu, the king of Elam, see the on-page note to text no. 228 obv. 19´.
