Discussion

Pentiuc 2001, 186 suggests a reading tuppūru “an implement (sewing tool?) of bronze” and connects the word etymologically with Hebr./Aram. TPR “to sew together”. The use of tu instead of tù throughout in Emar 6/3, 33 (ú-nu-tumeš l. 11, at-tu-ka-mi l. 21, tu-ta-ar l. 23) and in CunMon. 13, 15 (ú-nu-tumeš l. 21) does not favor that etym.
