1 There is no gap here ; the clause is not introduced by pasava, the proper name DadarSis being the first word in the sentence. All the signs in the line are clear upon the rock. 3 The name was composed of 5, possibly 6, signs, of which only the last is visible. In the Susian version the name is written Zuzza, in the Babylonian version Ztizu.
§ XXVI. (Thus) saith Darius, the king: An Armenian named Dâdarshish, my servant, I sent into Armenia, and I said unto him: "Go, smite that host which is in revolt, and doth not acknowledge me." Then Dâdarshish went forth. When he was come into Armenia, the rebels assembled and advanced against Dâdarshish to give him battle. At a place in Armenia named [Zuzza] they fought the battle.
