URU.ga-an-gu-uḫ-tu1

(1) The city Ganguḫtu.

1The copy by P.E. Botta indicates that the form of the end of the sign GU is anomalous, but H. Winckler’s copy (Sar. 2 pl. 49 no. 2e) has a good GU sign. A photo of the squeeze might suggest that the sign is slightly damaged, obscuring the exact formation of the end of the sign.
