a: the signgroup may be intact or
consist of a signgroup plus logogram or of a string of logograms; see
Notes to Sign 041. Sign 020 occurs in 11
signgroups: in 7 of these the sign is either an initial or a terminal, and
in 4, possibly 5, it appears next to an animal-head sign. In all but one
of these cases the direction of reading is ambivalent, but X 
009-077-013-020 (#003.g) is clear - perhaps the
reading here is therefore retrograde, with 020 a
terminal. The Linear A parallel to the signgroup's phonetic rendering
lends some support to an orthograde reading, however.

Transaction Document: The medallion follows the "Balance Ledger"
format (see "Transaction Documents"), giving, perhaps, an assessment on
face b and the amounts contributed or owed.
a1: since 044-049 KO-RO3 is a transaction term (= Linear A
KU-RO, "balance," "total"), then , which does not
commonly end signgroups (see Notes to Sign 023), functions here probably
as the logogram *159bis. Compare

this is the only appearance of 084; it should be

Since the pierced end of the bar is not

a: The signs ought to be
read starting with sign 042 since it is
apparently always an initial (see Notes to Sign 042). I also interpret
066 as a mark that isolates sign 042; see note
to #059.aB, and compare

Although the signgroup is hapax

syllabogram in two other signgroups (see Notes to Sign 055). It is
tempting, therefore to read this signgroup retrograde; cf. X >< X 070-056-057-011 (#185). On

a:
For the signgroup,
009-056, see Notes to Sign 009 and Notes to Signgroups XVI, which suggest
that 009 is an initial and that the signgroup
009-056 is separate.
The placement of the signs on the document argues for separating them
thus: 009-056 *032. Sign 032 was
written so boldly it could actually be
031.
b: CHIC: or *040 ?? JGY: logogram *168 is a hapax
legomenon here. Its placement on side b is on the other side of 009-056; consequently, the
alternative reading 040 is attractive. The
number is written as a straight stroke.

- Since
the pierced end of the bar is not preserved, sides a/c are arbitrarily
labeled.
- a & b: for the repeated signgroup 042-049-016-016-077, see
Notes to Sign 016.
- a1: CHIC: the second 016 is over
056. JGY: the first sign after the break is
probably 077; since
042 is always an initial, the long signgroup should be divided thus: ] , to resemble line b;
see Notes to Sign 042.
- a2: since 061 is
always a terminal, the signgroup should be divided thus:
057-070 and 005-019
(see Notes to Sign 061). For signgroup 057-070-061, see Transaction
Terms. The signgroup
005-019 is hapax legomenon, but it may recur in #079.a.
- b:
CHIC: probable accident after the second 077. JGY: probably not -- the
second 077 was written deliberately small to
accommodate another mark, perhaps 10; see Notes to Sign
042.
- c1: as duplicated in #113.a, signgroup ] * ]002-061
can be restored as
*]* 047-002-061.
- c2: logogram *170 is hapax
legomenon, but I conjecture that it is similar to
074-075 on #053.c2: a circle
enscribing a collected number, a group number. Here, the circle seems to
enscribe a tally mark (cf. KN #063.d), perhaps in this case the number
10, which would supply the extra ten implied by the total
]• 20 on MA
#113.b2.
- c2: for signgroup * 050-070-013-063-038,
Notes to Sign 013 suggest that *
013 is logogram *152: * 050-070 *152 063-038.
If so, signgroup
063-038 would be hapax legomenon.
- d1: CHIC: the first 060 is
over an erasure; and perhaps there is an erasure after 031. JGY:
Signgroup ] ]042-063-060 is intact since sign 042 is an initial; cf. 057-023-042-063-060 (#113.d1).
- d3: for the
signgroup *
036-031, see Notes to Signgroups II: * is probably a
misspelling for *.

Set of Transaction Documents: Comments
Transaction
Document: see the notes to KN #059.
Document #113 may record the
original assessment (20), or a complex arrival of at least two
commodities in quantities of 10 and 20; document #112 seems
to deal with just the 10, which KN #059 (and MA #108) record as
actually 11. Document #114 may deal in some way with the remaining
commodities.
The signgroup * 047-002-061 on both
documents is also otherwise unattested. The Linear A equivalent VIR+KA
occurs several times: HT 28a.4, HT 88a.1, and HT 97a.1; KH Wc 2029-2032,
and 2106; and KN Zb <53>.
The second part of #113 (faces c & d), and
presummably the comparable section of at least #112.b & d, contains a
different type of text: only signgroups and no numbers.
In the
Linear A documents signgroup VIR+KA occurs with KI-KI-NA (HT 88.1 & .2)
and with seal impessions made by a lentoid (or disk) carrying two
antithetic goat heads (CMS V Suppl. 1A, no. 158) on KH Wc 2029-2031 and
2106; VIR+KA occurs at Khania with other seal impressions, and the seal
with two goat heads stamped roundels incised with other inscriptions
(mostly vessel types) - the pairing of the word and the motif is not
exclusive. Nonetheless, the occurrence of VIR+KA with signgroups
containing the rare doubling KI-KI and with seal impressions containing
two goat heads, as in the Hieroglyphic signgroup 042-049-016-016-077, seems
hardly fortuitous.
An interesting comparison is with Linear A
document
HT 85 whose heading contains A-DU *638 VIR. Side A contains a list of
names with numbers adding to a total KU-RO 66. Side B begins with
the word KI-KI-RA-JA and then lists eleven names, each with a single unit
(is 11 a coincidence? see the related Hieroglyphic document
#059).

For the total (list a: 13 Λ 2Γ plus

r.A, v.A: Appendix XVII.A & F suggests that
013 is probably logogram *152 BOS.
r.A:
CHIC: 049 and 013 are possibly over an erasure. JGY: CHIC's normalization
of [ 050[ implies that it is the logogram *176[,
but since it occurs after a separation line, it should start another
signgroup, perhaps [ 050[-057-056 (see v.B).
r.B: CHIC: 038-031-025
100[ equally possible. JGY: compare 038-031-010-061 (#270.g) and *
* ><
019-039-038-031 >< (#303.g), which suggest that
either *[
025-073[ could start a signgroup or stand for 100 *025 100. For signgroup
038-031-025, Linear A provides AU-RE-TE.
v.A-B: The separation bar
between v.A-B and v.A & v.B implies a signgroup and/or logogram that
precedes 300; since the number could be higher by several hundreds
more but not by tens or units, it should be denoted ] 300.
Perhaps the commodity being recorded here is
*016, especially if BOS is modified by
the signgroup on both lines v.A & probably r.A, and if 025 is associated with the number
100.
v.A: See Inflection Sequence 5a1.
v.B: The signgroup
is a hapax legomenon.
