Note 338 — Chapter XIV

I.e., king or lord of Sarbi. Pognon (Les Inscriptions Babyloniennes de Wadl Brissa), p. 46, is of the opinion that sarbi is the palm, but he fails to bring sufficient proof, and his theory is improbable. The stem sarabu means to burn, and the "fiery lord" is certainly an epithet belonging to some solar deity.
