2The reconstruciton of the eponyms of the years 901-897 BC is based on Adad-nērāri II text no. 2: 39-61.
3There is no evidence at the moment to decide whether the correct name of this eponym was Šamaš-bēlu-uṣur, Šamaš-šarru-uṣur, or Ilu-kettu-uṣur.
4This edition follows the guidelines of transcription system given by Parpola in PNA (p. xxiiff.). Therefore, six divine names (Ištar, Ninurta, Aššur, Ea, Ninlil, and Enlil) are lemmatized according to their Neo-Assyrian reading (Issār, Inūrta, Aššūr, Aia, Mulissu, and Illil; see evidence for these forms in PNA p. xxv-xxvii). Also as in PNA, the trnaslation maintains the classic reading, guaranteeing the reader with the widest possible range of readings. The grapheme <i>, which is frequently used for writing the semivowel [y], has been consistently transcribed as i in PNA (or j, when used as a glide after i); this rule is applied for the lemmatization, but also in this case (and this time differently than in PNA) the translation keeps [y]. As an example for what here explained: Ninurta-ilāya (a name common to five eponym years: 863, 837, 801, 736, and 722 BC) is lemmatized as Inūrta-ilāʾī and translated as Ninurta-ilāya.
5Omitted in source A2.
6We follow here J.A. Brinkmann's suggestion (PNA p. 365-6), where he does not read PAB-ir as nāṣir (not attested as final part of three-elements names), but PAB.IR as a frozen writing which represents more than one form of naṣāru, attested in documents from the seventh century BC (like the present lists).
7On the writing of āpil with EN, see K. Deller and A.R. Millard, "Die Bestallungsurkunde des Nergal-āpil-kūmūja con Kalḫu," BaM 24 (1993) 217-242, esp. 218f.
8There is no enough strong evidence at the moment to decide whether the correct form of this name was Aššur-, Nergal- or Ninurta-ilaya (see the scores). However A.K. Grayson (ARI 2 p. 210 n. 905), A. Millard (SAAS 2 p. 110) and M. Roaf (NABU 1995/94) agree that Ninurta-ilāya (A7 r vi 12') is the least possible, as it is simply a repetition of the eponym of the year 863 BC. They also all agree that Nergal-ilāya seems the most plausable.
9M. Roaf (NABU 1995/94) suggests that this entry should be a scribal error for Aššur-nirka-daʾʾin, rab šāqê of Ashurnasirpal II, and father of Mulissu-mukannišat-Ninua, wife of both Ashurnasirpal II and Shalmaneser III.
10Source A6 omits this eponym.
11Possibly identical with the eponym of the year 772 BC.
12The eponym-list tradition covering the eponymates from Ṣil-Ištar to Ninurta-nāṣir (783 BC) is subject to several variations, and there is no secure way to indicate the most reliable manuscript; see, Brinkman, JCS 30 (1978) 173-175. Variations include two main recensions: a long one with six eponyms and a short one with five. With the exception of Ṣil-Ištar at the beginning, all the names in this segment of the list are subject to variations in the form: for example, Nabû-šarru-uṣur (786 BC) is substituted by Balāṭu in A3 i 7' (where appears later before Ninurta-nāṣir) and [...]-uballiṭ in B10 r 18. The range of eponymates with variation is larger by one, if we take into account the Eponym Chronicles, whose manuscript B10 has a repetition of Adad-mušammer at line r 22, where we would expect Marduk-šarru-uṣur (see the composite text). Please, click on the line numbers of this composite text and of the Eponym Chronicle composite text to see the relative scores.
13List A3 i 7' has Balāṭu (probably governor of Šibaniba). D.A. Nevez, PNA 259: “It has sometimes been suggested that Balāṭu may have died early in the year 786 and have been replaced by Nabû-šarru-uṣur, but this would not solve all the problems posed by the variant eponym-document traditions for the years 786-784." See also here the note above on year 787 BC.
14The eponym list A8 iii 24 has Nergal-uballiṭ.
15The eponym list A8 iii 25 has Nergal-šarru-uṣur.
16The eponym list A7 vii 19' has Marduk-nāṣir. The eponym list A 3 i 10 has here, before Ninurta-nāṣir, the eponymate of Nabû-šarru-uṣur.
17Previously read Nergal-ēreš (see, PNA p. 981).
18See note to Bur-Sagalê, eponym of 763, in the Eponym Chronicles' page.
19Previously read Nabû-mukīn-ahi (see, PNA p. 840).
20Source A8 omits this entry.
21For this name as a form of Ammi-hātî, see PNA p. 104, with previous bibliography.
22Here source A9 starts. As the only source of the eponym lists which gives account ot the eponyms' titles in a parallel column, it must be kept in mind that such attestations in the composite -- which for the lenght of the text is therefore structured on two columns -- come only from this source.
23Source A5 has instead (an extra canonical eponym?) Aššur-mātka-paḫḫir (see, PNA p. 194).
24A2 has the king's name before the Nasḫir-bēl's eponym, i.e. before Sennacherib's coronation after the death of Sargon II; A4 has it after Nasḫir-bēl's eponym.
25Probably a mistake for Dūr-Šarrukên
26This note on the years of reign of Sennacherib is present only in source A7 (see the socres).
27This note on the incoronation of Esarhaddon is present only in source A1 (see the scores).
28According to parallel sources, Banbâ is often referred to as sukallu šaniu "second vizier," while Abi-rāmu (above) is known as sukallu rabiu "grand vizier." The fact that both eponyms have the title of sukallu dannu ("grand vizier") might be due a scribal error of repetition (see, PNA p. 263).
29The entry of this eponym in the manuscript A9 is odd, inasmuch it is one of the few lines of the fifth column to be written on one line only instead of two, but the space in the line is clearly not enough to contain the whole "Sennacherib" part of the toponym.
