INTRODUCTION

INTRODUCTION.

A large number of the texts here pubhshed belong to the time of the Ur Dynasty, of which the reigns of Dungi, Bur-Sin, Gimil-Sin, and Ibi-Sin are represented. A number belong to the time of the First Dynasty of Babylon.' In Nos. 26, 33a, and loi, the year and the month are expressed by a number of perpendicular and oblique wedges. This indicates an earlier period than the Ur Dynasty> prob- ably a time between Ur-Nina and the Dynasty of Akkad.^ No. 33a unquestionably belongs to the Lugal-anda period. Nos. 100 and 103 are not dated, but for paleographic reasons they can likewise be assigned to a time prior to the Ur Dynasty. The Larsa Dynasty is represented by Nos. i7-2ob, 2ia-22h, and probably yga-e and 189. Of these, Nos. i8a-b, and probably 22b, belong to the reign of Rim- Sin, while 20b belongs to the reign of Samsu-iluna. Nos. 33b-36b belong to the reign of Uru-kagina.

Large temple archives have been found at Drehem and Jokha, cities situated southeast of Nippur, belonging to the Ur Dynasty. These show, as is known, that different names were in use at each place to designate the months of the year. The provenance of the present texts, belonging to the Ur Dynasty, can then be determined to be either Drehem or Jokha. Nos. i7-2ob, 2ia-22h, were in collections said to have come from Senkereh, the ancient Larsa. This is corrobo- rated by the dates in Nos. i8a-b, while the others are of a similar character, especially as regards the script. The same provenance may perhaps be assigned to Nos. 79a-e, and 189; while that of Nos. 33b-36b is assured by the mention of Uru-kagina, king of Shirpurla. Those belonging to the First Dynasty of Babylon do not show such

' Nos. 20c, 28, 57-70, 157, 182, 185, 187, 188, 190.

' At least this seems to be an;ilogous to the texts of the Lugal-anda and Ur-Nina periods where the year is expressed by a horizontal wedge crossed by oblique wedges. In the Revue d' Assy nolo gie. Vol. VIII, p. 159, Thurcau-Dangin has published four tablets, from Jokha, similarly dated. These he assigns to a time prior to the Dynasty of Akkad, ibid. p. 154.

conclusive internal evidence for determining their provenance. A few of these, probably, have come from Sippar.

These texts may be grouped into four general classes: (a) Bullae or Labels, (b) Tags in the shape of tablets, (c) Archive Labels, and (d) Animal Tags.

The general appearance of the (a) bullae or labels (see Plates I, II), is that of a lump of clay pressed on the knot of a cord. On the outer edges of many the finger markings of the scribe, who fash- ioned the label on the cord, are plainly visible. The most common forms used were the three-sided, conical, and elliptical or olive-shaped. The nature of the contents apparently did not influence or decide the particular shape of this group, belonging to the Ur Dynasty. It rather seems to have been a matter of choice with the scribe to use a shape best adapted to his immediate use, and one that was easily made. In the Lugal-anda period the olive-shaped bullae were chiefly votive in character. All the labels from Jokha have a solid base. This indicates that the cord did not pass entirely through the label, but that the lump of clay was placed on the end of the cord after it was tied around the object. This gave an additional side for the inscription, which the scribe frequently used.' The hole varies from one half of an inch to an inch in diameter, showing the use of a heavy cord to tie the bale of goods. The hole in the elliptical or olive-shaped is very much smaller, varying from one eighth to three eighths of an inch.

The second (b) group (see Plate III), does not difl^er from the usual shape of the tablet. In some the hole, which is very small, passes through the tablet, generally near one edge; in others it is only visible on one side, indicating that the tag was placed on the end or knot of the string with which it was fastened to the cord encirc- ling the object. At the time of the F irst Dynasty this form, apparently, disappears, and the most common then seems to have been the olive- shaped. A few, belonging to the Ur and First Dynasties, were flat and triangular (see Plate IV). In the Assyrian period, according to the published texts, the triangular, tending to a "heart-shape," were more common.

Very similar to the above group are the (c) pisan-dubba, i.e., archive labels (see Plate V). In these the holes are found, so far as

'Nos. 3, 7, 10, 23, 30, 44, 45.

10

the present texts show, on the left hand edge. The holes, two in number, are very close together, and do not pass entirely through the tablet. The impression of the string shows that it passed through the tablet in a short loop, thus leaving its two ends extend from the same edge and free, in order to fasten the label to the outside of the archive case, or to the receptacle which held what was referred to on the label.

No. 26, which belongs to an earlier period than the Ur Dynasty, shows a different arrangement. Here the string passed entirely through the tablet from the right to the left hand edge. There is but one hole, indicating a single string. On the right hand edge is a circular impression, showing that the knot of the cord was on this edge, and served as a support for the label. The shape of this label, rectangular like the usual tablet, however, shows a distinct variation from the usual shape, semi-spherical, of this group in the early period.' With it may be compared a similarly shaped label, dated in the reign of Sargon.^ The change from the earlier to the later shape, appar- ently, was then made prior to the Akkad Dynasty. There is no further change during the Ur Dynasty.

The id) animal tags (see Plate VI), are triangular and flat, some- what in the shape of a shield. These vary in thickness from three eighths of an inch to half an inch. A small hole passes through each of the three corners.

From the impressions on the inside of the tag (see Plate VIII, Nos. 65 and 66), it is probable that two cords were tied together, and the tag placed on this knot. No. 65 clearly shows that the knot, which was found preserved in the tag, was close to one edge; while in No. 66 the impression shows it to have been near the center of the tag. In some, the hole at the opposite corner is larger than the two at the shoulders of the tag, at least, it indicates the impression of a knot. It is then possible that a cord, with a knot on one end, passed through the tag from the opposite corner to one shoulder, and a short distance from this knot a second cord was tied, which passed out through the other shoulder. This gave two ends for fastening the

tag to the animal, while the two knots helped to keep it in place. The tag would then be suspended thus:

It is not evident, from Nos. 65 and 66, Plate VIII, that a single cord passed through the three corners in such a way as to form a loop. In such a case, we would expect to find also traces of the impression of the cord on one of the edges. But the present texts do not show any such impression. Nos. 79a, b, and e, elliptical in shape, indicate that this group varied in form in the different centers during different periods.

Most of these bullae and labels are well preserved and baked. A number, however, from Jokha and of the time of the First Dynasty are unbaked.

With few exceptions the scribe impressed his seal on those labels and tags which were used in connection with receipts and expendi- tures, i.e., groups a and b. Usually the seal is impressed several times. The scribe impressed his seal, which served the purpose of his signature, as well as mentioned his name in the body of the inscrip- tion. This was a guarantee to the steward of the storehouse that the record of the contents of the package was correct, and had been passed upon by the scribe hirriself as the responsible person. In a few instances,' however, the seal is that of another person, i.e., the one mentioned as having received the package. This is analogous to the seals on records of receipts, where the one giving the receipt also left the impression of his seal. On the archive labels (c) the seal is omitted, because these had no relation to any business trans- actions. The animal tags {d) also do not show any seal impressions.

The seal impressions, throughout the Ur Dynasty, show the us* of a cylinder with a perfectly plain border. The scene, a common one of this period, represents a seated deity into whose presence a worshipper is either led by a female attendant; or the worshipper approaches the god unattended. In the field, the crescent alone, or the sun in the crescent is frequently added (see Plate VII).

So far as the evidence shows, these texts are to be connected with the many temple records which have been found. This is clearly proved by the finding of records which give the same contents as some of these bullae or labels. In the collection, from which Nos. i8a-22h were taken, were also a number of tablets about one inch square, a few of which are here included (Nos. ige, 22g, 22h). These tablets give the records of consignments of bricks to different indi- viduals. All mention the same official, who probably was the one in charge of some Babylonian brick-yard. These three tablets were selected and included here because they, doubtless, refer to the same transactions as bullae Nos. igd, 22e, and 22f respectively. Each states the same amount of bricks was sent to the same person, proving that the scribe not only made a record, often a mere note, to be preserved in the archive, but also one to be attached to the goods as a label, to indicate the amount and destination of the consignment. In examining a large number of the published and unpublished temple records of the Ur Dynasty, corresponding similarities between the tablets and the bullae or labels of that period were also found.

The temple with its large possessions in lands and herds of cattle, and its hosts of functionaries and tradesmen connected with it, had become a great institution, whose administrative affairs differed in nowise from those of a similar modern institution. Its staff of revenue officers, in consequence, passed through the various outlying districts to collect the taxes due from its possessions. These taxes, always paid in kind, were sent in to the temple, where they were credited to the proper debtor. On their receipt the scribe naturally only made out a list of what was sent; by whom and through what official it was sent; by whom it was received; and the date. Frequently he added the purpose of the contents sent, whether as interest on a loan, as an offering, or even as food. Attaching such a record to the package, before sending it to the steward of the storehouse for final disposi- tion, was quite essential and most helpful to that official, who had to keep accurate records of the receipts as well as the expenditures of the storehouse in his charge. After serving this, its first purpose, the label, giving the itemized account, was baked (see page 17) and preserved as a permanent record to be used later by the scribe for compiling the monthly and annual accounts of individuals for the temple archive. The nature of their writing material would not permit the scribe to

13

keep on adding new accounts on the same tablet, so that full indi- vidual accounts could only be made on the basis of the separate entries of each transaction on separate tablets or labels.

These bullae and labels were then chiefly used in connection with the various receipts and expenditures of the temple: for tagging the revenues, tithes, and offerings received at its storehouse; the loans of grain or animals to the tenants of its farms; the wages of the laborers cultivating its lands, or employed to convert raw products, as wool, into finished articles; the animals entrusted to shepherds for various periods; and for marking the archive cases. Others again were used in connection with private receipts of interest on loans, of money, or with offerings made to deities for personal favor, or the preservation of life. In fact we may infer as varied and extensive a use of these clay labels as is to-day made of the common card-board tag.

The smaller triangular tags were, no doubt, tied around the neck, or horns, of the animal, which was to be tagged. They simply men- tion the kind of animal, and the shepherd's name. This would indicate their use to have been to designate ownership. Such a use seems reasonable when interpreted in relation with the numerous inventories of flocks made at the time they were entrusted to shepherds, and again of the round-ups of the herds at the expiration of the shepherd's lease.' Further, this view agrees with the records of contracts made with individuals, stipulating the conditions upon which live stock was farmed out, and the returns that were expected.^

The pisan-dubba group are to be connected with the filing cases for the temple records. The phrase, ^uan-basket, and a'«i^«=tablet, clearly means a "basket tablet," i.e., a tablet used in connection with a receptacle or case to indicate its contents. These labels suspended on a cord, as shown by the two holes on the left hand edge, were attached to the outside of the archive case.' They state the char- acter of the records or documents filed in each particular case,* and

so are the equivalents of the labels placed on filing cases to-day. The classification, cataloguing, and filing of the great number of records, concerning the temple's transactions, were entrusted to a stafi^ of archivists or registrars.^ Their official title is also designated by the phrase pisan-dubba, and mar-pisan-dubba}

From the seal impressions on a number of the present texts (Nos. 3, 5, 7, lo, 12, 23, 25, 130), where a pisan-dubba-sag, "chief archivist," is mentioned, it is evident that a division into classes was made, based, perhaps, on experience and ability.

No. 17, presumably from Larsa, gives a list of sheep delivered for various temples. In the Yale Babylonian Collection there are a number of similar texts. All are square, or nearly so, in shape. A hole, without exception, is found at the upper and lower left hand corner. The impression of the cord shows that it passed through these two corners in a loop along the left hand edge, and in the center of this loop was a knot to keep the tag in place (see Plate VIII, No. 67). On each edge, as well as on the obverse and reverse, are the seal impressions of difi^erent individuals, called satammu in the inscription. These no doubt were temple officials. This officer,^ preceded by the determinative amelu, is also mentioned on a number of unpublished letters, of the Neo-Babylonian period, in the Yale Collection. All the texts begin with E-^Samas, "temple of Shamash," except one, which begins with E-'^Enlil, "temple of Enlil." This label gives an entirely different list of temples, and is dated in "the year when the country of Umliash was destroyed, "'' whereas the others are dated in "the year when the country of Ashnunak was destroyed" (see below). In the former the following temples are mentioned: E-'^Samas, E-'^Adad, E-^Ishtar, E-^Nana, E-^Nergal, E-'^Bau; while in the latter, in the Yale Collection, are mentioned: E-'^En-lil, E-^Nannar, E-'^Ea, E-^ N in-har-sag-gd, E-'^Nin-kar-ra-ag, E-^Nin-ib, E-^Nin-din-ug-ga .

are published by Pinches' and Likhachev.^ The former translates it by "lord of the garrison'", and the latter leaves it untranslated. Thureau-Dangin translates it by "fortress of the wall,"^ and refers to en-nu in Gudea, Cyl. B, XII :20, where the meaning "fortress" is clear; also to Nos. 393:2, 394 : 2, in his Recueil de Tablettes Chal- deennes, where it is used parallel with e-gal, "palace." If this pro- posed meaning should prove correct, these bullae may then have been attached to parcels sent to fortresses, and addressed to their chief official.

Nos. 34a-36b are of a votive character, and, very probably, were attached to an object which the king dedicated to his deity. They are analogous to two other texts translated by Thureau-Dangin.'' In these, as in No. 36b, the deity addressed is ''Ningirsu, the god of Lagash; while in Nos. 343-363 it is Bau, his consort.

No. 81 records the receipt of a slave from one person by another, and so probably was the tag attached to the slave thus transferred.^ No. 28, pyramidal in shape, and No. 76, resembling a flattened lump, contain only seal impressions; these apparently served the purpose of seals, and so are very analogous to the bullae of the middle ages, or the wax seals still attached to documents and packages.®

That these labels were placed on the cord, with which the bale of goods to be tagged was tied, is evident from the hole passing through them, and the clear imprints of the cord.^ These imprints (see Plate VIII, Nos. 59-64*), show the cord to have been made up of a number of smaller fibres tied together, generally with a straight, occasionally a twisted, strand. Instead of plaiting the fibres into a cord it rather seems they simply tied them together at various intervals. A lump

of clay pressed on such a knot would have sufficient hold to remain in place.

Just what these fibres were, is not so certain. It is very probable, however, that they were reeds or rushes, possibly something similar to the fibres of the bamboo tree still extensively used in the Orient to-day. In this connection are to be noted the several lengthy pub- lished records referring to the collection of binding reeds;' also, a few of the present texts which were used to tag quantities of reeds, namely, No. 134, in connection with a consignment received by boat; No. 135, for different grades from the same field; or No. 141, where a num- ber of reeds from the ma-nu tree were sent as an offering.

That the bulla or label was baked in order to preserve it as a permanent record, after it had served its first purpose, is very evident from the perfect, unbroken grooves and ridges left in the clay, show- ing the exact form of the cord or rope which was burned out in the baking. In several of the labels, here published, charred pieces of the cord are preserved. In a few the remains were sufficient to show a slightly twisted strand.

Chronologically these texts offer several new and variant date formulas:

a. "The year when Shashru was destroyed for the second time."

b. "The year the son of the king."

c. "The year when the bright throne of Enlil was built."

d. "The year after Nannar of Karzida was brought into the temple of Ana for the second time."

e. "The year after the lord of Nannar was installed."

f. "The year the country Ashnunak was destroyed."

there is a variant form for the 3d year of Bur-Sin, which, throughout the known texts, is the year in which the throne of ''EnHI was built. In No. 131 it precedes the formula for the 4th year of Bur-Sin, which confirms the placing of it as the 3d year of that reign. Formula a occurs in no combination with another date which would help to definitely place it.^

Formula b is uncertain. The three texts in which it occurs give little help for its classification. It no doubt is the abbreviated form of "the year when the son of the king was installed patesi of Anshana."^ This would be analogous to the abbreviated form: "the year the daughter of the king,"^ for the fuller form: "the year when the daughter of the king was invested patesi of Zabshali."* To which reign of the Larsa kings formula / belongs is uncertain. Records from Drehem give the names of two of the patesi of Ashnunak in the time of the Ur Dynasty, namely, Kallamu in the 57th year of Dungi^ and the 9th year of Bur-Sin"; Ituria in the 9th year of Gimil-Sin^, and the ist year of Ibi-Sin*. Genouillac^ refers to tablets which mention Kallamu as patesi in the 4Sth year of Dungi, and as governor in the 2d and 5th years of Bur-Sin; and Ituria as patesi in the 3d year of Gimil-Sin.

In No. 22b the date: mu ki-iQ us-sa, "the 19th year after," no doubt can be assigned to the reign of Rim-Sin; at least it is analogous to a number of formulas placed in this reign by Thureau-Dangin.^" No. 26 mentions the patesi Isib-pa-he. The label probably is dated in his rule, in the ist year and the 7th month.

No. 23, dated in the 8th year of Bur-Sin, gives a new name for a month, namely, Ezen-^Bur-^Sin, which shows that the calendar at Jokha was subjected to this slight change. With what month to

identify it, and when the substitution was made, is not clear at present; possibly it was for Ri, the 5th month.'

The Drehem calendar, likewise, had two names for the same month. The new name that was substituted was Ezen-'Gimil-^Sin. Genouillac^ suggested that it was to be identified with Shu-esh-sha, the 8th month. This is definitely proved by a large tablet in the private collection of Mr. T. B. Walker of Minneapolis. This tablet is an annual record of animals brought to the temple on the difl^erent days of each month. The month Shu-esh-sha is missing, and in its place is given the month Ezen-^Gimil-^Sin.

In connection with the present texts it is interesting to note a group of bullae of the time of Sargon and Naram-Sin, bearing the seal impression of persons of Agade and addressed to individuals of Shir- purla.' These, besides indicating a system of exchange and trade between the two cities, illustrate a very simple, and possibly the original idea of this class of objects, i.e., they were labels giving the origin and destination of the package, similar to the modern delivery tag.

In the Assyrian period, a number of the bullae or labels are char- acterized by the addition of Aramaic notes. These, undoubtedly, have the same import as the Aramaic endorsements on the business documents of the Murashu Sons.'' Most of these Assyrian labels are described as "heart-shaped,"^ and were used in connection with advances of corn, for planting, to the tenants or officers in charge of farms.*

Among the Hittites the use of similar objects is evident from the description of two, one a cone and the other a tetrahedron, from Boghaz Koi.^

' In No. 3912, of the Yale collection, from Jokha occurs also the month Ur, which belongs to the calendar in use at Telloh during the time of Sargon and the early years of Dungi's reign. The tablet is a record of an offering of 6 gur 60 qa of royal grain from the month Ur to the month Kur-u-e {itu Ur ta itu Kur-u-e hi itu-bi 2-dm). This would identify the month Ur with the loth month, which in the Jokha calendar was Ezen-'^Dun-gi. The tablet is dated: itu E-itu-as mu en Eridu-ki ba-Ulg-gd.

The contents of the texts are briefly indicated in the catalogue. They are chiefly hsts of offerings of drink, vegetables and animals made to the principal deities, or the regular ofi^ering of some individual to his god; lists of animals, mostly slaughtered, sent by the king, or received by some temple official; lists of animal skins and sinews sent out; receipts of grain as interest, as rations for men, and as fodder for cattle; collections of reeds and wood; consignments of bricks and copper vessels; wages of men and women; archive labels; animal tags; and seals.

The translations of a few specimen texts are given to show the general character of this class of cuneiform material.
