Description

Chipping to wraps. Tears along bottom of spine. Browning to wraps. ; Beitrдge Zur Assyriologie Und Vergleichende Semitische Sprachwissenschaft V, 4; 118 pages; In this early study of the sources then newly recovered from Sippar, Friedrich offers a monumental amount of information. Sippar had yielded thousands of clay tablets and these were still being published in this period. Friedrich begins with the dated sources from the reigns of Sin-umballit, Hammurabi, Samsu-iluna, Abiesuh, Ammi-ditana, and Ammi-zaduga. This is followed by the sources that are not dated, those approximately assigned and those not assigned at all. Texts are given in transliteration and translation, and commentary is included. The next section concerns the representation from seal impressions, those categorized by gods and those categorized by epic. A comparison of names and an overview of published cuneiform texts also play a role in the discussion. The texts are presented in line drawings and photographs of cylinder-seal impressions conclude the work. With illustrations throughout, this brief study is an essential source for Old Babylonian resources located at Sippar.
