1PAP “brother”: R. Borger (BIWA p. 311) read this sign as x, adding the comment “völlig misslungenes pap.” However, he is possibly taking his reading from the copy in CT 35 pl. 17, which has a single, large oblique wedge. In contrast, the tablet has the full PAP sign although the horizontal wedge is faint. Furthermore, M. Worthington (personal communication) has pointed out that the use of this sign here instead of ŠEŠ adds another possible layer of meaning to the text as it can mean both “brother” (as PAP) and “enemy” (as KÚR).

2ú-še-ti^*-qu “they paraded”: The third sign of the word is et, which creates a problematic form. The parallel line for this epigraph in text no. 175 ii 22´ uses the preterite form of the verb, so the et is treated here as a scribal error for ti. However, the present tense of this verb (ú-še-et-ti-qu “they were parading”) is used in one of the other epigraphs (text no. 180 obv.? 11´), so possibly read ú-še-et-<ti>-qu, in which the error is an omitted sign.

3uš-tar^*-ri-ḫu “had bragged about”: The text has NU for the visually similar tar.
