- Deposition before witnesses about the responsibility of guarding the palace gate.
The document lists 7 witnesses (A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, A6 and A7) who were present when, on the 27th Šabāṭ (XI) of Nebuchadnezzar’s 22nd regnal year, B and his warrantor C (māhiṣ pūti) have taken over the guarding (maṣṣartu naṣāru) for D until the closing of the palace gate (adi turri bābi ina bāb ekalli). After (malDītu , wr. ma-al-DI-tu4) the closing of the gate (turru bābi), these witnesses said to B and C: “The gate is closed, the lord may go”.
