Discussion
The manuscript CT 58, 66 was not yet known to Sjöberg 1972 (cit. AHw. 1565), where the text reads KAB-lit (∥ eme-[x]) (see AO 9073 r. l. 5' and 8') and is followed by eme-sal in broken context. Reading and meaning of the word remain uncertain; note that Sum. eme-bal corresponds to nāpaltu in the lexical tradition.
