The glossary of this volume is very useful, particularly
when one wishes to learn Sumerian. It presents Sumerian
entries with Akkadian equivalents as well as English
meanings as attested in Utukkū Lemnūtu incantations in
addition to the ‘reverse dictionaryʼ (i. e., Akkadian index to Sumerian glossary). These can be used not only as a quick
reference but also as a ‘keyʼ to Akkadian dictionaries, namely
AHw and CAD, where one can find further references
for the attestations of each word in ancient texts.
