Urartian Inscriptions of Toprakkale

Toprakkale(?) (A 12-5a)

The small fragment preserved in the Hermitage Museum probably comes from Toprakkale. It was likely collected during the expedition of Iosif A. Orbeli in 1911–1912. The preserved text corresponds with the main texts from Ayanis and Karmir Blur, indicating it is from another duplicate of the standard text of Rusa II.
