(^) examination of the stele in G.R. Driver and J.C. Miles, Babylonian Laws, 141. The scribe of manuscript B
would appear to have also erroneously read the sign as NÍN, signifying the goddess Inanna, however the
sign recorded on the stele is ultimately uncertain and so is not counted. 409
B follows AO10237 in restoring muštakin, which is read as a III/2 participle in B against I/1 participle in
the stele. The difference in grammatical forms should perhaps be read as a lexical interchange (cf. G72),
but in light of Rule 4 the damage to B only allows the classification OV(l). 410
The oblique plural ending on the adjective should match the governing noun mākalī, “feasts.” B has an
erroneous nominative plural ending and lacks mimation. 411
The short anaptyctic vowel in LH is rare and considered archaic (see G.R. Driver and J.C. Miles, Baby-
lonian Laws 412 , 142). The vowel has been dropped in B.
The stele has an apocopated form of the 3fpl possessive pronominal suffix. See H86 above, and the
comments in note.
