Abstract
In the Old Assyrian texts, there are a few words that are not clarified and mostly doubted. Considering an evaluation in the light of the unpublished texts, the meaning of the word himtum that has been recorded only in a limited number of texts; the use of this word along with the foodstuff measurement unit ṣimdu, and its recording with honey which has frequently been used together with oil, and its presentment with the adjective bīšu having a meaning of “bad quality”, the mentioning of various types of oilwith himtumin the text CCT VI, 6d, and comparability of the difference in the writings of words mentioned in the article with himtum-himetum, it can be argued that the affinity between himtum-himētum that has been previously asserted byİ. Albayrak, might be strengthened. In short, it is concluded that the word himtum is the Old Assyrian writing of the word which is recorded as himētum meaning “clarified butter” in the lexical material and should be pronounced as himetum
