Promissory note for silver with pledge of a slave, partly damaged. B and his brothers owe an unknown sum of silver to A; B’s slave Bēl-lūmur is given to A as an antichretic pledge. The debtors’ mother fŠidātu/Nabû-bān-zēri//Nappāḫu acts as a guarantor. The debt results from a tax payment made by A on behalf of B and his brothers to an unnamed rab ḫanšî (commander of fifty). The four witnesses include as first witness fŠidātu’s father Iddin-Nabû/Nabû-bān-zīri//Nappāḫu (partly restored).
A = Nabû-tabni-uṣur/Balāṭu//Egibi (filiation restored); B = Bēl-šumu-iškun/Nabû-nādin-šumi//Gaḫal (partly restored) |
