Reading

This record

su-ki-ra-ta

Third sign: AB60 (ra)

Source: SigLA, through our own import; the word string and the sign array of this record both read AB60

Another source

su-ki-ri-ta

Third sign: AB53 (ri)

Source: Younger, section 10c, SU-KI-RI-TA (PH Wa 32; KN 9 occurrences), Internet Archive copy dated 2024-01-25, fetched 2026-09-18; lineara.xyz record PHWa32, transliteratedWords SU-KI-RI-TA, fetched 2026-09-18

The whole dispute is one sign in third position: AB60 (ra) against AB53 (ri). Our own unicode_text on this record decodes to their reading: U+10632 AB058 su, U+10638 AB067 ki, U+1062D AB053 ri, U+10633 AB059 ta, so the glyph string reads su-ki-ri-ta while the word string reads su-ki-ra-ta. The record therefore contradicts itself. Recorded 2026-09-18 after the independent claims audit.

This site does not choose between them.
