The Keşiş Göl stele (CTU I A 14-1), records the creation of Rusai Sue as follows: "Rusa says: the abulši... man aga... towards mount Ura. I saw the place of this lake, [truly] the place was void; (there was) no existence of anything, not even a grain field was there pulaue iṣinaue aributai [(not even) a road] was there, no canal had (been) dug, not (even) a fountain was there. I secured the mighty mountainous land (and) collected the water from their pulaue and iṣinaue. I gave it the name 'Lake Rusa.'"
