Zēria, the High Priest, assigned Ištar-šumu-uṣur/Iddin-Nabû and Nādinu/Bēl-aḫḫē-iqīša(//Egibi) to (the delivering of) the first sacred meal of the nabrû-festival, including the pappāsu(?).
They should bring barley (uṭṭatu) flour (simdu), malītu-vessel to the Lady of Uruk, Nanāya and Bēltu-ša-Rēš.
They should bring other types of offerings … to Uṣur-āmassu, Urkayītu and Palil. The text also mentioned 12 tangallû-vessel, the one in charge of the food allocations (kurummātu) of the king and the share (zittu) of a boatman (malāḫu).
Notes
A seal impression (AUWE 18, 139) is at the reverse of the tablet, before the date. It is the same seal impression as in YOS 6, 241.
