iiiFnSymT 0  T 1 The passage must refer to a certain rite or procedure celebrated during the rituals (such as a rite of ‘re-installation’?). For the formulation <span class='AOHittite'>appa tiyawaš</text:span>, which has no exact parallels, see the colophon of Muwatalli’s prayer for the Storm god of Kummani (KBo 1.11): <span class='sGr'>DUB</text:span> <span class='num'>1</text:span><span class='d'>KAM</text:span> <span class='aGr'>ŠA</text:span> <span class='d'>D</text:span><span class='num'>10</text:span> <span class='AOHittite'>ar-ku-wa-ar ti-ya-u-wa-aš</text:span> “First tablet, of the <span class='AO--italic'>presentation</text:span> of the plea to the Storm god”.
 iiiFnSymT 1  T 2 Tentative. For the equivalency between <span class='sGr'>KUR</text:span> <span class='d'>URU</text:span><span class='sGr'>GAM</text:span><span class='aGr'>-TI</text:span> and <span class='sGr'>KUR</text:span> <span class='AOAkkadian'>šaplīti</text:span> ‘Lower Land’, see<span class='AOAkkadian'></text:span> also A. Kryszeń (hethiter.net/: HiTop). With <span class='AOHittite'>pai</text:span> one expects <span class='aGr'>ANA</text:span> (‘for’) here, rather than <span class='aGr'>INA</text:span>; possibly, the rites are to be carried out <span class='AO--italic'>in</text:span> the Lower Land.
 iiiFnSymT 2  T 3 Lit. ‘of perjury’, ‘of curse’: quasi a merism, <span class='AOHittite'>arraḫḫaniya-</text:span> ‘ranting, slandering, cursing’; <span class='AOHittite'>tiwataniya-</text:span> ‘swearing, cursing’. Syntactically, these two terms are unlikely dependent from <span class='sGr'>UN</text:span><span class='d'>MEŠ</text:span><span class='AOHittite'>-tar</text:span>, whose attached enclitics introduce a new sentence. Due to the word order, it is equally unlikely that the head noun(s) of these genitives are the “male and female servants”, or any of the previous listed people. As reflected in the present translation, tentatively, we understand them as free-standing genitives (Hoffner H.A. – Melchert H.C. 2024a, 334-335) with the function of subject, probably referring to the people responsible of murder, and implicit subject of the following sentence. However, we cannot exclude that these “perjurers and slenderers” are to be included in the preceding list of people, “(the matter of …) (and of) the perjurers and slanderers”.
 iiiFnSymT 3  T 4 Tentative. The passage is difficult, and <span class='AOHittite'>kuit</text:span> might also be interpreted as a conjunction: “<span class='AO--italic'>because</text:span> (these) people (obj.), they (sbj.) murdered one by one”. Either way, the subject of <span class='AOHittite'>kuennešker</text:span> (“they killed”) is not expressed, while the victims are presumably the “free men”, members of the house of Arma-Tarḫunta and the relatives of <span class='sGr'>AMAR.MUŠEN</text:span><span class='AOHittite'>-na</text:span>. The subject cannot be <span class='sGr'>UN</text:span><span class='d'>MEŠ</text:span> in any case, a neuter singular.
 iiiFnSymT 4  T 5 Lit. ‘swiftly’, also ‘hastily’, ‘rashly’.
