Paraphrase | List of monthly allotments of comestibles to prebendholders (for the preparation of the offerings). Fragmentary. The first lines, broken, must have included the customary introductory reference to basic foodstuffs, distributed to a class of prebendary workers (brewers and/or bakers) as allotments for a specific period. Such distributions are recorded with the formula “n (amount of goods) for X days (of cultic service performed) in front of (the god/goddess) DN1 and X days (of cultic service performed) in front of (the god/goddess) DN2, (allotted to) PN” (n ša X ūmu IGI DN1 X ūmu IGI DN2 PN). A change in the formulary occurs on the reverse, where other specific allotments are recorded. 0;0.2 kor (c. 12 l) of Dilmun dates (reconstructed), 0;0.1 kor (c. 6 l) of dried figs and 0;0.1 kor (c. 6 l) of raisins (to be used for the preparation of nāšu-beer, reconstructed) for 4 days of the eššešu-festival (were allotted to) A. These foodstuffs are “of” (ša, i.e. “charged against”?) B. 0;0.0.3 kor (c. 3 l) of Dilmun dates (reconstructed) and 0;0.0.1 ½ kor (c. 1 ½ l) of raisins to be used for the preparation of qullupu-cakes (reconstructed) for 1 day of the eššešu-festival (were allotted to) C? (name reconstructed). 0;0.4 kor (c. 24 l) of a non-mentioned foodstuff for the nocturnal ceremony (bajātu) (were allotted to) D. Rest broken off. A = Innin-zēru-ušabši/Šumu-ukīn; B = Nūrea/Balāṭu; C = Balāṭu; D = Nabû-ēṭir-napšāti
