Cuneiform tablet; inventory of grain
Manuscripts
This is an inventory of grain brought probably to the palace or temple. The first two lines give a brief ledger-like statement of this fact; also the date, what is probably April, at the 25th day, but the year is illegible. All the remaining lines contain the names of persons who bought the grain, each is checked at the beginning with a little sign. The cuneiform is probably from about 1200 B.C.; though there is a possibility that it is considerably later.
