Receipt for barley.
Concerns 10 kor (c. 1,800 l) of barley, the produce (ebūru) from a field (eqlu) in Bit-Hahhuru. In Ayyār (II) of the 14th year E received (maḫāru) either this barley or the field (uncl.). The barley is owed by C1 and C2, slaves of B, to D. A presented the creditor’s receipts (giṭṭu) and tablets (ṭuppu) that pertain to these 10 kor of barley to the debtors’ master (ana pani našû) and the latter must have agreed to pay for his slaves. Thus, in the present document A receives the barley according to the said documents of D from B for the account of C1 and C2. Names of 9 witnesses and the scribe.
