The author’s actuarial prospects are not conductive to protracted pro-
gress, hence a need to proceed expeditiously. P is of a size to make a

This task has taught the author that much remains to be discovered

bined with comparative insight and theoretical open-mindedness. Ongo-
ing or half-baked efforts in Hittite lexicography are hardly of a speed or
