Content
- Paraphrase
Tabulated increasing balance for the livestock of multiple herdsmen.
Fragment of a tablet organised in 5 columns which give (headings lost) the initial amount (i) and the increase in animals (ii-v), after which the balance is made, summing up the total increase (napḫaru) and giving the grand total (wr. napḫaru-ma).
Several hundreds of animals (sheep and goats) belonging to the Eanna are thus listed. There doesn’t seem to have been a column for the names of those who were responsible for the mentioned animals, unless it is lost at the tablet’s far right-side (cf. W 18215,21 = AUWE 5 25).
