These 300 kor of barley and dates are the tithe (ešrû) of the freemen (mār banê) from the land of Bīt-Amukanu (i.e., a).

A will deliver the barley in Ayyār (II) to the Eanna temple, and the dates in Tašrīt (VII). The last clause is fragmentary (Tašrīt of 2 Camb, dates, and Bīt-Amukanu are mentioned). Names of 6 witnesses and a scribe. * Lit. to “the property (makkūru) of the Lady-of-Uruk and Nanāya”. A= Bānia/Innin-šumu-[x]// Gimil-Nanāya; B= Dihummu, rent farmer (ša muhhi sūti) of Bīt-Amukanu. |
