Unfortunately, his method did not lead to very important results, for it only enabled him to add two additional values correctly. Both of these were suggested to him by the second word in this same Hamadan Inscription.[395] The word occurs also in the B and G inscriptions, where it was transliterated by Grotefend _e_ _gh_ _r_ _e_. Burnouf accepted the change of the initial _e_ (𐎺) into _i_, which was made by St. Martin, without approaching nearer to the correct value, which is in fact a _v_. The emendation of the second letter lay ready at hand, and could not well be longer overlooked. Since Rask had identified the sign for _m_, this particular sign (𐏀) was the only one that required alteration in order to read _Aur_ _m_ _z_ _da_,[396] and it was therefore inevitable that Grotefend’s _gh_ should at length be surrendered for a _z_; the only wonder is that this change should have been so long delayed.[397] The emendation of the last letter of the word (𐎣) displays an entirely different order of ingenuity. The letter occurs in only seven different words in all the inscriptions of Niebuhr, Le Bruyn, and Schulz but in one instance it is the initial sign in a word of which the others are _t_ _p_ _d_ _h_ _u_ _k_. It was certainly no common feat of imagination that led Burnouf to see that if a _k_ were to precede this remarkable agglomeration, the province of Kappadocia would turn up. By these means, however, he got rid of another of Grotefend’s _e_’s, and altered it into a _k_, which proved to be correct. Having thus changed _e_ _gh_ _r_ _e_ into _i_ _z_ _r_ _k_, the next step was to find some similar word in Zend that might suggest its meaning. This, however, was not easy; the nearest he could think of was ‘yazata,’ which might bear to be translated ‘divine.’[398]
