Steinkeller 1995,702 sub No. 277: this sign stands for both KAB and TUKU. Englund 1990,147-149 fn. 467: KAB.IL = baskets in which fishermen carry fish, of anintake up to 120 sila; unaccompanied by the reeds determinative. In EDproverbs, Bent Alster reads this sign as NUMUN 2 (Alster 1991-1992, 37).The sign seems to alternate with TUKU and thus NUMUN 2 may not be theonly reading possible. It refers to reed material used for mat-making andpossibly also for the confection of a kind of clothing (túg-bar-dul 5 ) (Alster1991-1992, 24 ad line 47). An ED proverb says that haš 4 -sikil ur númungu 7 -è = "a girl’s lap is a reed-eating dog", meaning that it is neversaturated (Alster 1991-1992, 18, ad line 168, see also commentary on p.30). In ED Lagaš, KAB = "Gehilfe" may be related to the lexeme GÁB (Selz1995, 59 fn. 266, also in register on p. 399).73 See http://psd.museum.upenn.edu/epsd/nepsd-frame.html s. v. šu 2 .74 See http://psd.museum.upenn.edu/epsd/nepsd-frame.html s. v. gu.48
