Delivery of sheep and goats
Title
Delivery of sheep and goats.
Abstract/Description
This tablet summarizes the delivery of various sheep and goats recorded by at least two different scribes (the beginning and end of the document are missing), but most of the livestock noted by Ğiri-Šara-idab have since died.

Title
Disbursement of garments, 2033 BCE.
Abstract/Description
This rather difficult, damaged tablet seems to record the disbursement of garments to prisoners from named individuals. Most extant lists of clothing gifts record the weight of each length of cloth. This record, however, does not.

A list of goods for scribes
Title
A list of goods for scribes.
Abstract/Description
Most of the obverse of this tablet is too damaged to read, but the reverse suggests that it is a list of items handed out to personnel, at least some of whom were scribes. The fact that the distributed items were weighed suggests that they were not grain rations but rather metals or wool.

Damaged administrative document
Title
Damaged administrative document.
Abstract/Description
Almost nothing except the date survives of this small administrative record, but the morphology of the tablet and the style of hand-writing suggest that it was probably an early administrative record like FSU 6 and FSU 11.

Sealed receipt of fodder for sacrificial sheep, 2026 BCE.
Abstract/Description
Animals were sacrificed daily to Šara, the city god of Umma. Although this tablet does not say so explicitly, this must also have been the fate of the sheep recorded here, given the recipient’s known connection to the temple household.

Sealed account of agricultural labor
Title
Sealed account of agricultural labor.
Abstract/Description
Like FSU 23, this tablet records an agricultural labor team’s maintenance work on fields in which crops are growing. It calculates the theoretical labor expended on the basis of standardized work rates, distinguishing between regular team members (erin2) and hired labor (lu2 huĝ-ĝa2). There are no toponyms or officials’ names to help identify its provenance, but almost all such accounts are from Umma.

Sealed account of agricultural labor, 2039 BCE
Title
Sealed account of agricultural labor, 2039 BCE.
Abstract/Description
At Umma the management of state-owned land was contracted to teams of twenty or so agricultural laborers headed by an overseer. Running accounts were kept which recorded work owed and work performed year by year (Englund 1991). This tablet records weeding activities in three well known fields in the Umma district.
