 There is also discussion about the extent of the overlap between Lagash II and Ur III (see, for example, Steinkeller 1988, //JCS// 40, pp. 47-53 and Widell, [[http://cdli.ucla.edu/pubs/cdlj/2004/cdlj2004_002.html|CDLJ 2004:2]] with its references to earlier literature).
-The month names for the Lagash II period at Girsu are generally the same as those used for the early part of the reign of Šulgi ([[http://cdli.ucla.edu/tools/ur3months/month.html|Ur III month names]]). The main difference is that, in the earlier usage, there is a tendency to include the word ezem, which is usually excluded in later usage, for example in
-  * Month 1:	ezem [GAN<sub>2</sub>]-maš
-  * Month 2:	ezem gu<sub>4</sub>-ra<sub>2</sub>-izi-mu<sub>2</sub>-mu<sub>2</sub>
-  * Month 4:	ezem šu numun
-  * Month 5:	ezem munu<sub>4</sub>-gu<sub>7</sub>
-  * Month 12:	ezem še-il<sub>2</sub>-la
-At Girsu, there was also a change in name of the 7th month from about the 25 year of Šulgi’s reign, so the month UR was re-named as ezem-{d}šul-gi. All the other month names were unchanged.
