 * This is nonsense. I'm not sure how to link directly, but if you go to http://psd.museum.upenn.edu/nepsd-frame.html and click on the "+" in the M row at the A column, you can get to it that way. Or use the search box. At any rate, "sledge" is obviously the sled-like item, not the hammer (there are entries defined as "hammer" elsewhere in the dictionary). Even if it did mean "hammer", there's absolutely nothing to connect a Latin term for a common object to Sumeria. Chuck Entz (talk) 15:11, 30 March 2023 (UTC)
