Paraphrase Promissory note for assessed field rent (imittu), to be delivered in dates.
B owes a broken amount kor of dates to A and his brothers, the assessed field rent (imitti eqli)(*) on land the location of which is only partly preserved. It appears to be land held in common ownership with C. The dates should be delivered to the courtyard (haṣāru) in one payment. Delivery is due in Arahsamna (VIII). B should also deliver the usual by-products of the date cultivation: for each kor of dates he shall give spathes (tuhallu), a load of firewood, spadices (gipû) from green dates (ša uhinnu), fibres (mangagu), (and) 1 darīku-container. The document concludes by mentioning 1 qappatu-container, apparently as a late addition to the previous list of by-products. Witnesses.
(*)[imitti eqli].
