Abstrak

This paper presents the publication of new joins to a text source for the umṣatu skin mark tablet of the alamdimmû series (BM.52614, Böck 2000, 184‑95 source C). BM.45680+45825 and BM.46091 have been joined by the author, and BM.46188 by Eric Schmidtchen. These joins not only enhance the reconstruction of the series but also reveal new anatomical terms and revise previously suggested meanings. New terms include dūr lišāni, the ‘wall of the tongue’ (leading to a study of all parts of the body whose names are constructed with dūru followed by a genitive), and ḫinpi ammati, the ‘crook of the arm’.
