Note on the outlay of birds for various purposes. Dated.
The tablet lists two deliveries (? no verb is mentioned) of birds to the Eanna: the first one, dated to the 29th of Ulūl (VI), refers to 50 marratu-birds to be alloted (ana parāsu), probably meaning that they were to be set aside for cultic purposes (Kozuh 2014, 253-254 and 267ff.).
The following day, 25(?) carcasses (pagru) of marratu-birds are delivered for a broken person or purpose.
