Delivery of golden objects to the temple. Border case between administrative and legal.

A1 and A2 deliver (verb reconstructed) to the Eanna 8 rosettes for the headdress of the Lady of Uruk, together with (adi) their 136 rings (sanhāni). They forged these objects from a broken amount of minas and 17 shekels of gold, by 1/8 alloy (bitqu) per shekel, mentioned in the fragmentary first line of the obverse. Such metal, whose weight is said to be shaped as Ninurta’s lion, must have been previously put at their disposal. The rest of the obverse is broken; the reverse records a list of 5+ witnesses. No scribe. Although not explicitly mentioned with their job title in this tablet, A1 and A2 are certainly 2 goldsmiths appearing mostly together in the texts of the Eanna archive.

A1 = Ištar-šumu-ibni/Nabû-šumu-ukīn; A2 = Bēl-ibni/Nādinu
