Confidence note. The eBL API record for BM.21946 was downloaded on 19 September 2026 and the museum number, accession number, CDLI number, genre and bibliography read from its structured fields. The record contains no continuous sentence, so no quotation is recorded for it: its description field is empty. The string “TCS 5” does not appear in the record; the identification of Grayson’s volume with Texts from Cuneiform Sources 5 is standard bibliography, stated here as context and not as a quotation. The British Museum’s own collection-online page could not be opened.
