- Addendum to the purchase of a house by proxy
A purchased a 5 gi (c. 45 m2) big house and a share (ahu) in a slave (C) from B by proxy. He gave D, his proxy, the silver to buy the property: 2 5/6 minas of medium-quality silver of which 1/8 is alloy. The latter received (mahāru) the purchased property from the seller and a sale document (šaṭāru) was written at A's request (ṣibûtu). The present document aims pointing out that D has no share (zittu) whatsoever in either the house or the slave. Names of 7 witnesses and the scribe.
