Textual tradition

Basis of the edition

Commentary

Whether this fragment is a cult inventory is uncertain. For the inclusion in the genre speaks the spelling lu-kat-ma (ii 11′). Noteworthy is the mention of the goddess Nenuwabi, i.e. the Hurrian Šawušga (“the Ninivean,”), besides Allani (obv. ii 11′).

ii 9′: To my knowledge, the NINDA MUŠ is not attested elsewhere.

ii 11′: Nenuwabi, i.e. Šawušga (“the Ninivean,”) see Laroche, GLH 184 and van Gessel 1998: 19-20 with fn. 11.
