Record

Mayer 1976: 395 noted that K.10354 (P398642) indirectly joins with K.16689 + K.16696 (P402158); see also Loretz and Mayer 1978: XVI; Zsombor Födli joined K.16362 (P401969) to the latter fragments and Tonio Mitto joined K.17416 (P402759) (June 2023), which have made all the joins direct (all certainly belong to the same tablet). -A.
