Sakuma Y. 2009b, II 237 emends this form as
GUN!, a sign which corresponds to
GÚ+UN. However, the consistent spelling also in obv. 9´ supports the view that this form is not a mistake, presumably to be understood as an abbreviated form of the standard term
GUN. Although rare, other attestations in other bird oracles also supports this view: four attestations in KUB 52.24 obv. I 19, rev. IV 1´, 3´, 6´, in particular, cannot be considered all mistakes; other instances appear in KBo 40.52+ 5´; KBo 40.54+ 1´, KBo 66.41 r. c. 8´, and possibly in KUB 52.21, obv. I 12´.
