1.1.4Meaning
The context of the verb is highly fragmentary consisting only of one or two line-initial words: eagles and wings (rev. 5’), calm water (rev. 6’) and human being(s) (rev. 8’). As a consequence, no semantic interpretation can be offered here.
[E.R.]
1.1.5Stem
The stem of the verb does not become obvious from the attested form. However, the number of possibilities is still limited, for the 3pl. impv. act. in -C-andu is compatible with a denominative verb in -a-(ti), a root verb ammart- (but this root would be disyllabic), and a stem in -a-(i).
