This article investigates the multiple orthographies of the theophoric element Hu(m)ban in Elamite onomastics, attested in the Sumerian, Akkadian, Elamite and Achaemenid text corpus. By studying the impact of phonological evolutions on scribal practice, often based on cross-linguistic evidence, one aims to obtain a better understanding of the context in which these variations on the theophoric element Hu(m)ban were used.
