1 From its form, ṣaṣumtu is clearly Semitic, but murdudū, from the characters used to express the reduplicate ending, is just as certainly Sumeriaii; A possible rendering of the latter, Šam murdudū, would be “herb making strength”, or the like, suggesting some drug with especially tonic properties.
