Archaische Texte aus Uruk

Más información sobre el libro

This publication presents the archaic clay tablets discovered between 1933 and 1939 in Uruk, southern Iraq, now housed in the Museum of the Near East in Berlin. These tablets are among the earliest known examples of writing, dating back to the final centuries of the 4th millennium BCE. They contain records from a central economic administration responsible for managing substantial quantities of food, raw materials, and finished products, documenting their intake and distribution to entitled recipients. While the tablets do not provide insights into historical, religious, or broader intellectual themes, they offer valuable perspectives on a crucial aspect of Babylonian urban society during this period. This sixth volume completes the publication of the archaic texts preserved in Germany, contributing to a series that encompasses a total of seven volumes.
