Note regarding gold that was put into the kiln. Dated.

The tablet records that a total of 157¼ + 1/24 shekels of gold was put into (šakānu, Stat.) the kiln (utūnu). The gold came from two sources: 2 minas (≈ 1 kg) of gold from the stock (hāṭu) at the disposal (ina pāni) of A1 and A2, the goldsmiths (kutimmu), and 37¼ + 1/24 (girû) shekels (≈ 309.5 g) of gold from the general income (irbu) which B brought along (našû) from Borsippa.

 

A1= Bēl-ibni, goldsmith (kutimmu); A2= Ištar-šumu-ibni, goldsmith (kutimmu); B= Ayyigāšu, a known ša rēš šarri ša muhhi quppi, attested 3–13 Nbn (Kümmel 1979, 145)
