Paraphrase

Multiple transactions of the same type: issue of barley and dates. Very fragmentary. Dated.

The tablet records the disbursement (nadānu, wr. SUM-nu) on the Eanna’s behalf of barley and dates to fowlers (usandû) that took place on the 5th? m.V of Nebuchadnezzar’s 25th? regnal year. The tablet is fragmentary and all the amounts listed are lost; only the names of 6 individuals are extant.

It is possible that the reverse recorded a different disbursement (našû, Perf.): the few readable words in fact mention a slave (lamutānu), the m.IV and 2 persons, in connection with raisins and dried figs. Rest broken off.
