Paraphrase

Tabulated list of livestock and animal products. Very fragmentary

Fragment of a tablet with vertical and horizontal gridlines, organised in at least 3 columns (headings lost): (i) the first columns lists the numbers of sheep and/or goats (since the heading is missing, it is not possible to identify the type of animal); (ii) the second column gives the amount of wool that is expected to be delivered to the Eanna (the ratio being 1,5 mina per animal); (iii) the third column provides the names of the responsible herdsmen.

Iqīšāya, responsible herdsman for a unknown number of sheep or goats.

Silim-Bēl, responsible herdsman for 10 sheep or goats.

The tablet is too fragmentary to determine its exact classification.
