Description of the image

[edit]

Current text says the "central figure" of the three on the left is dressed like Shamash. Simply by looking, its the third, not the second, that is dressed like Shamash. Some correction is needed. A citation is needed to identify the king. If the scene needs interpretation, such as "the king, in the middle, is being lead (by a minor god?), to be 'elevated' to status of deity", then a citation is essential. The interpretation I'm suggesting is totally O.R.! B.Sirota (talk) 15:29, 10 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
