tapurdan

‘(unknown)’

1.1.1Transmission

This word is found in a Palaic festival text.

[D.S.]

1.1.2Forms

acc. sg. ta-˹pur˺-da-an KUB 35.159 ii 5’ (CTH 753, NS)

1.1.3Graphic Features

This word was previously read tentatively as ta-˹ú˺?-da-an (Carruba 1970a:33). Soysal 2017a:84 reads the sign -ri- instead of -ú-. S. Görke (pers. comm.) interprets the sign as a late variant of -pur-, which is the reading we adopt, after verifying it with the photo in the Konkordanz.

[D.S.]

1.1.4Meaning

No meaning has been suggested; cf. Carruba 1970a:74. The fragmentary state of the context renders any hypothesis very tentative; see under iština-(i).
