OBOB: Old Babylonian (ca. 2000–1600 BCE) aššum erḫiṣṣī ša bēlī išpuram annikīʾam ašar er-gi-la-tim ibarrū ARM 27, 64: 5 ARCHIBAB “about the erḫiṣṣu -locusts regarding which my lord wrote me, here is where they catch the e. -locusts”.
Discussion
ergilu and ergiṣu are treated as separate, albeit consecutive, entries in the lexical tradition and therefore not considered variants of the same word here.
