doppelter Glossenkeilkuwalumuš

‘(ghost word)’

1.1.1Transmission

There is only one uncertain attestation with a gloss marker in a NS text.

[A.B.]

1.1.2Forms

acc. pl. c.? doppelter Glossenkeilku-wa-lu-⸢mu?-uš⸣ KUB 58.89 obv. ii? 5 CTH 832, NS

The word is not listed in any dictionaries, but van den Hout 2006a:251 reads kuwalumuš, cf. under Graphic features for the details. The transliteration has been checked against the photo of the Mainzer Fotoarchiv.

1.1.3Graphic Features

The hand copy seems to support the reading of van den Hout 2006a:251, indicating a MU-sign. However, the photo in the Mainzer Fotoarchiv shows one bigger Winkelhaken at the end of the sign under discussion, which suggests that it is a TI-sign.

Hence, this form is probably rather to be read doppelter Glossenkeilku-wa-lu-⸢ti?-⸣ (cf. also García Trabazo & Groddek 2005a:232 and Starke 1990a:134, n. 406 and 214, n. 711). It is therefore treated under the lemma doppelter Glossenkeilkuwaluti-. Consequently, there is no evidence for the existence of a Glossenkeilwortdoppelter Glossenkeilkuwalumuš.
