What 𒐥 means
It counts three šar₂ units, not three single objects.
Each šar₂ is 3,600; 𒐥 is the variant of 𒐤 for three such units.
Cuneiform writing is first attested at Uruk IV, c. 3500–3200 BCE, as cities and administration grew. Early signs recorded goods and quantities; on clay, reed styluses favored wedge strokes over curves.
Historical numeral notation.
Read the unit; this is not plain 3.
