[1] Attia/Buisson (2003), 5 emend the uncertain passage to gišA bi-ni!. Otherwise the position of the determinative GIŠ before the component A of the ingredient bīnu would be quite odd and at least the scribe wrote a clear KAL-sign. This might suggest, next to the emendation of Attia/Buisson, other emendations like <qi2>-lip2 or the uncommon spelling lip2 for līpu/lipû “fat, tallow; marrow, pith”. Cf. also the possible reading lab-bi-ni, see Attia/Buisson (2003), 16.
[2] See also the much more elaborated parallel or variant BAM 9:62f (ina ZI3.KUM ⌈DIDA2⌉ […] / […A?].MEŠ GAZIsar ina KAŠ.MEŠ(corrupt for DIŠ-niš?) ŠEG6–šal tara-bak LAL-ma ina-[eš]). Cf. similar BAM 11:20. These entries seem to have elements of both entries UGU 2:34 and 35.
[3] The parallel BAM 9:40 adds ILLU šimḪAB but replaces the following DIŠ-niš GAZ with GAZIsar which might be a corrupt reading.
[4] Frequent by-form of AL.US2.SA = šiqqu.
[5] Attia/Buisson (2003), 6 reads a-na [nu-uḫ2]-ḫi but the traces after a-na suggest another sign than NU. Despites this, the sign UḪ2 is visible.
[6] For this symptom cf. BAM 174 (always in connection with sufferings of ṣētu-heat). Most of the other attestations are connected to intestinal problems as well as demonic or divine induced afflictions.
[7] It is suggested by U. Steinert that the menopausal woman is the subject of the sentence.
[8] The traces might belong to a sign similar to BI or IŠ/SAḪAR.
[9] See for LAGAB in front of MUNU5/6 the parallel BAM 9:15.
[10] Not noted in Attia/Buisson (2003), 6. The traces (a long vertical wedge whose top is damaged) might likewise belong to a purposeful erasure. Although, it looks in my opinion comparable to the form TI-uṭ used in the surrounding entries.
[11] Attia/Buisson (2003), 6/13 interprets SAR (not EZEN!) here as the unusual spelling GIR11 translating “tu appliques” but one might likewise think of SAR = qatāru “to fumigate”.
[12] For restoration see the parallel BAM 3 iii 32.
[13] BAM 3 and BAM 35 seem to differ concerning the reading of BIL-ti3 or AR3–ti3 in connection with saḫlû, cf. UGU 2:54 (with parallels in Attia/Buisson (2003), 7).
[14] For restoration see the parallel BAM 3 iii 20f.
[15] Attia/Buisson (2003), 7 reads DIŠ NA SA SAG.KI ⌈GUB3⌉-[šu2 …] but the actual tablet is broken richt within the sign KI.
[16] For restoration cf. the parallel BAM 3 iii 24.
[17] The reading for this word in the parallel BAM 3 iii 25 in Attia/Buisson (2003), 7 (ki-la2-an) has to be corrected to ki-lal-an.
[18] See Fn. to UGU 2:52.
[19] The restoration follows more or less the parallel BAM 35 iv 1’-2 since it equals the previously used formular of UGU 2 the most whereas BAM 3 shows some deviations (cf. for this line saḫ-le2-e BIL-ti3 šum4-ma ina KAŠ šum4-ma ina GA UZ3 SAG.DU-su SAR LAL-ma [x (x)]).
[20] This approximation concerning the line numbers follows the reconstruction in Attia/Buisson (2003), 7 restored from the appr. 24 lines missing between ms. A1 (K. 2392+) and A2 (K. 2611) as well as the surplus of 13 lines given in ms. B after the break of A1.
[21] It is uncertain how much lines need to be restored before ms. A2 begins. If the overall structure of the symptom descriptions is still valid, the entry might have been concerned with symptoms of both sides of the patient’s temples as well as both of his eyes.
[22] The parallel in Sakikkû 4:30 has differently DE3–qi2.
[23] The parallel BAM 3 iii 10 has differently šur-šum-mi KAŠ but leaves out the KAŠ.SAG of the next line which suggests a possible corruption of the passage in BAM 3.
Hello everyone,
just a few remarks for BAM 482 col. ii:
Line 1: read tug2NIG2.DARA3.ŠU.LAL2
Line 4: read šimBULUH instead of šimHAB
Line 9: Why is {x} added before SAG.KI-šu2 LAL?
Line 14: The text really reads LU2 BI DINGIR-šu2 iš-kun-šu2 (not TI-šu2), so this must mean “that man – his god has placed (this ailment) on/for him”, i.e. the problem is caused by the patient’s personal god.
Line 17: Probably, the postmenopausal woman ist he subject of the sentence, here, so I would read pa-ri-iš-tu2 NU.NU.
Later on, I would rather read (with Attia/Buisson) KI-šu2-nu ta-pat-til „together with them you twist“ (probably, the woman twisted multiple threads or the like). Negation is not expected.
Line 19: Read ŠIKA SILA.LIMMU2
Line 22: read IGI (not UGU) GUB3-šu2 IR2 …
Line 25: dugUTUL7 looks normal to me, not corrupt.
Line 58’: Again, better read u2IGI-20 (MAN has many readings)?
Line 65’: read at the end: ina I3 SUD2 (no NUN visible in the copy).
Thank you for your comments and suggestions! Most of them have been worked in.
l. 9: The {x} is added since there is the beginning of something like I3 underneath the beginning of SAG.
l. 65’: Indeed, the copy left the NUN out but we have photos from the tablet where it is present.
