Discussion
Uncertain, as the context is difficult. Streck/Wasserman 2018, 34 suggest derivation from Sum. ul “to swell, rejoice”. Note perhaps in MSL 3, 137 II 96 (= Sb) ú-l[u] = UL = ul-lu (cf. AHw., 1410 s.v. ullu(m) I: “[ullu] Jubel nicht sicher bezeugt”), in CAD U/W, 82 understandably cited under ullu B “distant past, old time”.
