What does it look like, the [Simyra], that belongs to (Pharaoh) (Sesi) LHG? [On which] side [of it] lies the city of Aleppo/Chalab? What does its river look like? You have not undertaken a journey to Kadesh and to Tubichi. You have not gone to the territory (?) of the Shasu, having become separated from a troop of soldiers (?). You have not entered the way to Pa-Magara (?). (There) the sky is darkened by day (because one walks under the trees and therefore cannot see the sky). It (i.e., the way or the place) is {firm} 〈overgrown〉 with $ꜥwn.t$ trees (almond tree?, cypress?) and with terebinth trees (?). - 〈The〉 conifers, they have reached the distant sky - (It is overgrown) and densely populated with lions, panthers, and bears, and surrounded on all sides by Shasu Bedouins. You have not climbed barefoot on Mount Schawe. Your hands lie (unused?) on [your legs]. Your chariot is made with (or: in?) ropes (i.e., not ready for use?). Your team/horse is one that is being pulled (?). Third month of the sowing season, [Day X, ...] next to the 〈...〉 of(?) Meresger.

Wie sieht es aus, das [Simyra], das von (Pharaoh) (Sesi) LHG? [Auf welcher] Seite [von ihm] liegt die Stadt Aleppo/Chalab? Wie sieht ihr Strom aus? Du hast keine Reise nach Kadesch und nach Tubichi unternommen. Du bist nicht zum Gebiet (?) der Schasu gegangen, indem du einer Heerestruppe abhanden gekommen bist (?). Du hast den Weg nach Pa-Magara (?) nicht betreten. (Dort) ist der Himmel verdunkelt am Tage (weil man unter den Bäumen geht und daher den Himmel nicht sehen kann). Er (d.h. der Weg oder der Ort) ist {fest} 〈bewachsen〉 mit $ꜥwn.t$-Bäumen (Mandelbaum?, Zypresse?) und mit Terebinthen-Bäumen (?). - 〈Die〉 Koniferen, sie haben den fernen Himmel erreicht - (Er ist bewachsen) und zahlreich bevölkert mit Löwen, Panthern und Bären und an allen Seiten mit Schasu-Beduinen umzingelt. Du bist nicht barfuß auf den Berg Schawe gestiegen. Deine Hände liegen (unbenutzt?) auf [deinen Beinen.] Dein Streitwagen ist mit (oder: in?) Seilen geschlagen (d.h. nicht einsatzbereit?). Dein Gespann/Pferd ist eins, das gezogen wird (?). Dritter Monat der Aussaat-Jahreszeit, [Tag X, ...] neben dem 〈...〉 von(?) Meresger.

  • Approximate location — most map points are plotted at the site centroid, not the exact findspot.
  • Inferred links — cross-references marked with a match method other than explicit-source-field were matched by us, not stated by the source.
