The document lists the names of 8 freemen (mār-banê) including Šamaš-ah-iddin/Ṭāb-šar-Bēl, the one in charge of the fodder (ša muhhi kissati) and Rīmut, the agricultural supervisor (gugallu) of the Nabû temple. In their presence (ina pāni) A, slave (qallu) of C, declared that B beat him up (ṭēru) in the afternoon (muṣlalu) of the 6th day of Tašrīt (VII) in an unlawful way (šigiltu), pierced (šaqāru D) his ṣibtu-garment with the sharp side of his door-key (sikkat namzaq bābi, wr. gišNĺG.GAG ká) saying as follows: "This is the word (amātu) of the king: a slave doesn’t put on (nadû) a loin cloth (qablu ṣubātu) of first quality (rēštu) wool (šipātu) around his waist (qablu)." The document is dated but there is no list of witnesses (mukinnu). The scribe is Nidinti-Bēl/Iddināya//Sagilāya. A = Madān-bēlu-uṣur; B = Nabû-ēṭir/Nergal-šumu-ibni//Ēṭiru; C = Itti-Marduk-balāṭu/Šulāya//Egibi |
