Three of the I18N roots for 'knee' are attested in cuneiform:
𒄭 GAL гола gola ⲕⲁⲗ ⲕⲉⲗⲓ keli knee “Kehle” kuli koleno •HEL ḪI כָּרַע kara •karo 𒄭 gwiwa @ Hausa ⇔ gon
𒄭 DÙG (good) घुट ghuṭa 𓅮𓄿𓂧𓁺 ngjut 𓌳𓋴𓏏𓂾 knee-cap (top)
𒄭 DUB top 👌 ṭābu 𐩷𐩺𐩨 ṭyb טוֹב ṭōḇ top 𐎉𐎁 ṭb très bien (gut)
𒄭 DUB topïq тубыҡ tubïq knee ☑
[𒄭]] DUB ḏꜣp](/pannous/hieros/wiki/pꜣḏ-𓊪𓄿𓆓-knee-[[reverse) ⲫⲁⲧ polvi ≠ pelvis
Absurdly they also correspond to TOP, COOL and GOOD with the same meaning.
This needs further investigation.
