This small fragment from the lower left corner of a tablet contains what appears to be a commentary on a medical text. Since one of the entries (l. 10′), “he has been sick during the 31st day, hand of DN,” is only known in Sagig (e.g. Sagig XIII 13, 44, 67, 79, 108, 130, XVII 26, XVIII 38′), this fragment is here tentatively identified as part of a commentary on the diagnostic series. Line 11′ seems to justify the association between the “31st day” and the “hand of Sîn.”

Only one other commentary on Sagig is known in the 81-11-3 consignment, namely BM 48727+ (+) BM 48729 (CCP 4.1.7.C.a (+) CCP 4.1.7.C.b, commentary on Sagig VII). The small and slanted script of the present fragment is strongly reminiscent of that of BM 48727+(+), which suggests that they might be part of the same tablet. Unfortunately, the fragmentary state of conservation of Sagig VII precludes any certain identification.
