OB-LitOB-Lit: Old Babylonian literary texts UD.SAKAR u šapattam Wilcke 2017, 741: 17 “(I prepared the ritual meal) on the (beginning of the) month and the fifteenth day of the month”. Note the unusual logogram UD.SAKAR (normally uskaru, “crescent”) instead of ITI. The Akkadian reading is suggested by the frequent combination between arḫu and šapattu (often expanded by adding sebūtu “7th (day of the month)”; see CAD A/2, 260 arḫu A 1b).
