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.

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 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.

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.
