Qut
For the university abbreviated as "QUT", see Queensland University of Technology.

The cuneiform qut sign, (also qud, aspirated 't', unaspirated 'd') sign is found in both the 14th century BC Amarna letters and the Epic of Gilgamesh. It is a multi-use sign with 9 syllabic/alphabetic uses in the Epic of Gilgamesh; in the Amarna letters it is extremely common in the prostration formula, typical first paragraph of a letter, saying typically: "7 and 7 times, I bow down" (to the Pharaoh, when addressed to the Pharaoh); a small group of Amarna letters are addressed to a different distinct personage in Egypt, under the Pharaoh.

In the Epic of Gilgamesh, the sign is used for many syllabic meanings, as well as two sumerograms, as follows:

has haṣ kut qud qut šel šil tar ṭar SILA, "street Sumerogram" TAR, for Goddess Ishtar's name, IŠ.TAR

The usage numbers for the sign are as follows in the Epic: has-(2), haṣ-(7), kut-(6), qud-(8), qut-(27), šel-(1), šil-(4), tar-(16), ṭar-(9), SILA-(3), for Akkadian language "sūqu", 'street', TAR-(17), exclusively for Ištar's name.
