Paraphrase

This fragment most likely belonged to a receipt for the partial repayment of a debt. Bēl-eṭēri-Šamaš was the creditor who received 18 shekels of silver. The document text begins with the statement that “In/out of the debt note (u’iltu) of 18 shekels of silver of Bēl-eṭēri-Šamaš, son of Aplāja, which Iqīšāja, son of […], owes (ina muḫḫi) […]”. The rest of the obverse is broken off.

On the reverse only the date is preserved.
