(^273) Of the five sources for this line only A and K preserve the (^) nomen regens. According to H. Hunger and
D. Pingree, 274 AfO 24, 127, it is possible that this form is a gloss to mul UGA mušen.
Šubultu is a cognomen for Šala, meaning “the ear of corn.” The deity Šala is associated with the constel-
lation Virgo. According to RLA 3 77 in the Selecid period Virgo was, under Greek influence, depicted as a
young woman holding an ear of corn. It might be suggested that the feminine appellation šubultu in A may
have some relation to this, even though that tablet is from the Neo-Babylonian period. K, which bears a
colophon attributing it to the Seleucid period, has the variant form Šubula that apparently lacks the femi-
nine reference.
