Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Babylonian Tablets of the Berens Collection Notwithstanding that a large number of the temple-records found at tel-loh has been published, and that they are mainly texts of but little importance, certain minor historical details, Sumerian linguistic data, and information bearing upon Babylonian manners, customs, and religious beliefs, require that as many of these seemingly worthless documents as is possible should be reproduced. On this account I need not ask the indulgence of the student for the present issue of a further instalment of these inscriptions from the old site of: Lagas and elsewhere. Their contents, and the interesting cylinder-seals with which some of them are impressed, will be their justification for claiming his attention, as they have claimed mine and, in the first place, that of the owner.

Book excerpt: Notwithstanding that a large number of the temple-records found at Tel-Loh has been published, and that they are mainly texts of but little importance, certain minor historical details, Sumerian linguistic data, and information bearing upon Babylonian manners, customs, and religious beliefs, require that as many of these seemingly worthless documents as is possible should be reproduced. On this account, I need not ask the indulgence of the student for the present issue of a further installment of these inscriptions from the old site of Lagas and elsewhere. Their contents, and the interesting cylinder-seals with which some of them are impressed, will be their justification for claiming his attention, as they have claimed mine and, in the first place, that of the owner. As these records have all been acquired from dealers, it is only by internal evidence that their provenance is known; but there is no doubt that Nos. 1-93 were inscribed at Lagas. The later Semitic documents (Nos. 94-9) possibly came from Sippar; Nos. 100-2 are of more doubtful origin, whilst the latest of all, Nos. 103-11, were apparently all excavated at Borsippa, the city whose great temple-tower has long passed as the traditional Tower of Babel, and which was known to the Babylonians as " the second Babylon ", though this name seems never to have been given to it officially. Something has still to be learned about the oblong bead-like clay records bearing the name of king Uru-ka-gina (Nos. 1-6), and also the small but carefully-written dateless inscriptions which follow (7-13). With regard to the tablets of the dynasty of Ur (reigns of Dungi to Ibe-Sin), it is to be noted that three (Nos. 19-21) have colophon -dates which are by no means common, and that the remainder of the dated texts are fairly representative. The rarity of the dates of the earlier portion of Dungi's reign implies that at that time the temples of Lagas had not attained the influence and renown which fell to their lot afterward and lasted until the reign of his great-grandson, Ibe-Sin. It would be well, if more tablets with this king's earlier colophon -dates could be published, and the same may be said with regard to those belonging to the time of his father, Sur-Engur, which are so rare as to be practically non-existent. Nothing can be done, however, until the war now raging in both East and West comes to an end, and excavations are resumed in the Tigris and Euphrates valley.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part of the British Society Monograph series, this is a book that basically contains lots of information about Babylonian seals and tablets. I can find no description for the book elsewhere and seeing as I haven't read it, I'm just going from what I see as I skim through. Lots of illustrations of ancient tablets and descriptions and translations of what is on them. The tablets themselves have all sorts of information on them, from food consignments to garments, to workmen's wages and the sale of a female slave.

Download or read book From the 21st Century B.C. to the 21st Century A.D. written by Steven J. Garfinkle and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2013-12-02 with total page 521 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume collects the proceedings of a three-day conference held in Madrid in July 2010, and it highlights the vitality of the study of late-third-millennium B.C. Mesopotamia. Workshops devoted to the Ur III period have been a feature of the Rencontre Assyriologique Internationale roughly every other year, beginning in London in 2003. In 2009, Steve Garfinkle and Manuel Molina asked the community of Neo-Sumerian scholars to convene the following year in Madrid before the Rencontre in Barcelona. The meeting had more than 50 participants and included 8 topical sessions and 27 papers. The 21 contributions included in this volume cover a broad range of topics: new texts, new interpretations, and new understandings of the language, culture, and history of the Ur III period (2112–2004 B.C.). The present and future of Neo-Sumerian studies are important not only for the field of Assyriology but also for wider inquiries into the ancient world. The extant archives offer insight into some of the earliest cities and one of the earliest kingdoms in the historical record. The era of the Third Dynasty of Ur is also probably the best-attested century in antiquity. This imposes a responsibility on the small community of scholars who work on the Neo-Sumerian materials to make this it accessible to a broad, interdisciplinary audience in the humanities and related fields. This volume is a solid step in this direction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the reasons for which weights and scales were used to measure goods in Early Mesopotamia (ca. 3,200-2,000 BCE). The vast corpus of cuneiform records from this period sheds light on the various mechanisms behind the development of this cultural innovation. Weighing became the means of articulating the value of both imported and locally-produced goods within a socioeconomic system that had reached an unprecedented level of complexity. This study provides a comprehensive analysis of this cultural and economic phenomenon, which simultaneously reflected and shaped the relationships between individuals and groups in Mesopotamia throughout the third millennium BCE.
