Von Soden, Die Akkadischen Synonymenlisten, 1, iii, 7, has lùgal-nu-giš-šar = šá-an-da-na-ku, after lùnu-giššar = nu-ka-ri-bu “gardener”. VAT. 9558 Rev. i, 23 has 
(ša-an-dan) 
= šá-an-da-na-ku, after nu-giš-šar = nukaribu. Meissner, Beiträge, i, 85, n. 77 is to be corrected. This is not šandabakku “librarian”. šá-an-da-na-ak kirî ṣi-ḫa-ti “The gardener of the garden of desires”, Ebeling, KAR. 158, p. 274, 35. So correct JRAS. 1921, 188, 35; Ebeling, Berliner Beiträge, i, 3, p. 24, 35. The early form is GAL-NI (sa-an-ta-na) = sandanaku, RA. 21, 178, ii, 15; earliest occurrence Dél-Per. 14, 121, No. 88, ii, 1, where Legrain fixed the meaning. GAL-NI, CT. 10, 49, 12247, 5–6; RA. 21, 24, No. 26, 5; YOS. i, 12, iii, 4 (early text); ZA. 29, 79; VS. 16, 85, 8–12; 118, 6; Reissner, TU. 12, iv, 6; other references, p. 10. See Dossin, RA. 21, 182. Strass, Warka, 48, 10. GAL-KAK only in late texts, YOS. vi, 10, 11; i, 45, ii, 27; JRAS. 1917, 724, 20; Strass, Nbk. 22, 12; 72, 14; Sidney Smith, Senecherib, 1. 54. KAK is, therefore, an error for NI. [See also Landsberger, ZA. 41, 189.]

page 862 note 1 The moon during its period of eclipse was identified with Nergal, mêultu of Nergal.

page 862 note 2 gal-gar; cf. same title kár-gal an-ki, ibid., 1. 2. gar for kár. See K. 4395, iii, 25 in Babyloniaca, vii, 96, amēl gal-ka-a-ri “great one of the wall”, wall inspector. amēl gal-kár of Opis, Strass., Nbk. 365, 14. As title of Nergal the “great one of the wall” refers to this god as keeper of the mythological wall of heaven and earth.
page 863 note 1 Thureau-Dangin, RA. 8, 88, regards k and g as inorganic letters introduced between the genitive inflection a and the nominative ending e, oblique a. Hence a-e > age, a-a > aka. This purely phonetic explanation is difficult to Understand. Why should the Sumerians choose g, k to separate these vowels and why then is the intervocalic glide ḭ used normally in a-a > aḭḭa (§ 38, 2), or why should ma-e “I” not become mage ?

page 864 note 10 B 29; C 42; D 18; E 23, ku-ba. Here ǵ > k, against the usual ǵ > g as in laǵ > lag, igi-taǵ = naplusu, but igi-tāg = pitû, RA. 28, 139, ii, 13. Cf. taǵ > tab = pitû, proving ǵ, sonant, not surd ḫ. ū-taǵ = ingu, ATU. i, 62, 60, but û-tag = ingu, K. 4369, Rev. 14 (Bab. vii, Pl. iv). These are examples of final ǵ, sonant. Initial ǵ in ǵa-lam = ḫalāḳu, but ga-lim, JRAS. 1921, 171, 35, same root as ǵilim, ǵillim. For ga-lim, see also PBS. x, 252, 38. Initial ḫ must be assumed in ḫub-ba > ku-ba, suḫuš > sukuš = uššu; saḫar > sahar = šaḫarratu. It is certain that this sound was sonant ǵ, as well as surd ḫ, and no fast rule can be established. For initial ǵ, sonant, cf. ǵúl, glossed gul, Schroeder, KAV. 64, ii, 20.
