Legacy Paraphrase

Undated list of tracts of land, measured by the 1000. Very fragmentary. Lines 16-17 mentions "star-shaped land (kakkabtu), field (eqlu) of Nabû-ahhē-iddin/Šulāya" who is perhaps to be identified with his namesake from the Egibi family. Each line starts with "1000 (tracts of land) of", followed by specifications of the land quality, borders, etc., a.o.:
(land) opposite (tarṣu) the estate of Šamā'-ilu; (land) drained by ditches (kaslu); woodland (qīštu); estate of Nabû (bīt Nabû); orchards (kirû); the estate of Šarru-rēmanni; the wall (dūru ) of Gidāya.
