Commentary
Remarks
| This small manuscript is not the same as "No. 311 A" in Sieg and Siegling 1921: 167. In one frame with THT 945 (= A 311). Lower margin of the recto (upper of the verso) preserved. |
Philological commentary
n1 | Based on the manuscript, a reading ntu instead of tu seems possible. |
n2 | Based on the traces on the manuscript, one may tentatively restore (śäm)lu(ne) . |
n3 | Maybe something like (kal)kar tä , as in A 310 a3? |
