Tabulated lists of remainders in animals and by-products, accumulated by Bunnānu/Šumu-ukīn (B) from Nbk.33 until Nbk.43. He owes (ina pāni) totals of 84 head of cattle (oxen, cows, 2-year-olds and calves of both sexes), property of Eanna, 173 sheep (adult males and females, male and female lambs), desginated as “whites”, 21 goats (adult males and females and kids of both sexes), designated as “blacks”, 19 talents and 1 mina of wool, and 50 minas of goat hair. B said that he will bring (f)Nanāya-šiminni, novice oblate (zakītu), and her sons Eanna-šarru-uṣur and Ibni-Ezida, who are marked with the star symbol, and hand them over to the Lady of Uruk. This (information) was copied (nabalkutu Š) from a parchment (kuš.narû) of an Aramaic scribe (sēpiru). Remainders in cattle are listed in a table with 6 columns on the reverse, while remanders in sheep and goats, wool and goat hair, are listed in a table with 11 columns on the obverse.
The tablet is very elongated. The king’s name and the year number are given in the core text.
