PREFACE
The volume editors first wish to thank Simo Parpola and Robert Whiting
for many new insights, corrections and observations contributed in the course
of the preparation of this volume, over and above their substantial routine
editorial work on its production. The detailed distribution of ırork between
the volume and the series editors is noted below, pp. XXXVII-XL.
Tuviah Kwasman had worked on the ADD II mateıial before we stalted to
collate it foı our edition. He had made several joins, and communicated to us
a list of similar fragments identified by him among the high K numbers. We
are very grateful to him for his generous collaboration.
As with all SAA volumes, a considerable debt is owed to the staff of the
Department of Westem Asiatic Antiquities of the British Museum: for their
hospitable and efficient service in the Students' Room, and for their help in
selecting and producing photographs, for both the illustrations and the Plates
of tablets. To them, and to the Trustees of the museum, we are indebted for
permission to publish these illustrations and the copies of hitherto unpub-
lished fıagments. We have also been very fortunate to receive help from
fellow denizens of the students'Room: A. R. Geoıge, S. Herbordt, and W. G.
Lambert-
We would like to thank most warmly Mrs. R. Maxwell-Hyslop and Prof.
Dr. B. Hrouda, both of whom have allowed us to use drawings from a book
of theirs. Sincere thanks also go to Dr. G. Herımann and P. Dorrell, for help
with the illustrations, and to Tıinity College, Cambıidge, which has given
much material assistance towards the expenses of the edition, notably by
meeting the editors' travelling costs on more than one occasion.

INTRODUCTION
This is the first of two volumes of İhe State Archives of Assyrid devoted to
the administrative archives. It includes exclusively texts from Nineveh, the
great majority of which weıe published originally by C.H.w. Johns in his
Assyrian Deeds and Documents. This volume contains texts deriving from
the internal administration of the palaces on Kuyunjik, as well as a large
group conceıned with temple offerings. Few of the texts have been edited
before, and the following intloductory comments may be useful in giving a
broad conspectus of their nature.
The Documents
Untike the letters which will comprise the bulk of this series, the tablels
with administrative texts aıe very varied in their format. Without doubt much
of the administration of the Neo-Assyrian empire was written on waxed
wooden writing boards in cuneiform or on materials such as leather or
papyrus in Aramaic. These have of course perished, and what we have here
is therefore only a very partial record. But even within the clay tablets there
is great variety: some aıe well-prepaıed, excellently written and many-col-
umned tablets, while others aıe scrappy notes on poor clay with coalse script.
Even within gıoups of obviously Ielated material there are considerable
variations in the quality of clay, the size and shape of the tablet, the disposi-
tion of the text (in the layout of its lines and columns), and the tidiness and
size of the script. Johns' original copies in ADD make no attempt to convey
any of this information, noı could even the best copyist substitute for a
photograph. We have therefore tried to illustrate the degree of variation in
the Plates at the end of the volume.
Dating
Few of these documents aıe dated. Two of üese belong in the reign of
Sargon (nos. 34 and79), and others can certainly or probably be assigned to
XI

his reign on inteınal criteria (nos. 45' 57 79 and 86). one textile docket is
'
dated to Esarhaddon (no. 94), and six pieces to Assurbanipal (nos.49, 51, 59,
61' 93' 118). The single post-canonical date comes from the Nabü Temple
(no. 81). In other cases Parpola has shown that in general texts fıom the refun
of Sargon were stored and found separately from those of Esarhaddon and his
son (see below). In so far as they represent royal archives, there is a presump-
tion that they would not have been written at Nineveh before the tıansfer of
the capital there at the accession of Sennacherib. The pıesence of texts from
Sargon's reign must be expiained in the same \ray as that of the many letters
from his ıeign (cf. the comments of Parpola in CRRAI 30 (1986), 233 wirh
noİe 52). Among the undated texts in this volume there are none which stand
out as earlier, either from their sign forms or from the geneıal size and quality
of the tablets and script. Admittedly, there are few pre-Sargon tablers for
comparison, but provisionally we may peıhaps assume that the accession of
Sargon in 72L is the upper limit. As for the lower limit, although the latest
datable tablet is from 648 8.C., there is no reason why the occasional text
should not be considelably later, and it is theıefore impossible to suggest a
certain terminus before 612 B.C. when the walls of Nineveh were bteached
by the eastem hordes.
It is probable that the majority of the texts in this volume come from the
ıeign ofEsarhaddon and the early years ofAssurbanipal. Although few can be
definitely attributed to a specific yeaı, there are seveıal groups of texts which
obviously belong together, both from their format and content, and fıom the
occasional prosopographical corınection. Until the remainder of the Nineveh
letters and administrative teİts is presented in lateı volumes of this seıies, it
would be prematufe to attempt any more detailed prosopographical study, so
that we may merely emphasise that the external evidence mentioned in the next
paragraph for the provenance of texts numbered 83-1-18 supports the intemal
indications that many of them belong together as an archival group.
Provenance
These tablets are almost all from those brought to the Bdtish Museum by
Layaıd and his successors flom the palace mound of Kuyunjik. of the tablets
excavated by King and Thompson, nos. 20 and 81 aıe known to have been
found in the Nabff Temple excavations. Otherwise nothing is known of the
detailed pıovenance of individual tablets within the mound, but foı the
archives as a whole the situation has recently impıoved. The present state of
knowledge is set out in the complementary articles of Reade, "Aıchaeology
and the Kuyunjik archives," CRRAI 30 (1986), 2l3ff., and Parpola, "The
royal aıchives of Nineveh," ibid. 2z3ff. For our present purposes, we may
quote Reade's comment that "The South-West Palace also produced a wide
range of official documents and pdvate archives .... We can be sure, from
their dates of excavation, that many of these were found, not in the area of
Rooms XL-XLI but in rooms well to the south. Layard also noted many
sealings from Room LXI" (p. 220). This may be compared with Parpola's
demonstration that the collection 83-1-18, which includes many of our ad-

ministfative texts, though not those fıom the reigı of Sargon, should be
attributed to the SW Palace (pp.227-23O).It is gratifying to find that indeed
Reade is able to be more precise: "An unpublished report from H. Rassam
suggests that most of the 83-i-18 Nineveh tablets were found in the area of
Room LIV in the South-West Palace" (pp. 213-4).
As for the texts from Saıgon's reign, Parpola has concluded, from a study
of the Rm 2 collection, that the majority of the archival texts from the reign
of Sargon would have been stored in the North palace (pp.23O-232).
xv
STATE ARCHIVBS OF ASSYRIA VII
grammar of the Neo-Assydan dialect has only been properly understood since
the 1960's, and some no doubt remains to be elicited.
A second reason is that although Johns was an experienced ıeader of
cuneiform texts, and frequently deciphered difficult passages, by modern
standards his copies were inadequate, in ADD Vol. II especially. This was
not only beca 'se ofthose specific cases where lines were omitted (easily done
in administrative texts), and signs badly miscopied, but in general because
the format in which the copies were presented did not convey the format of
the original documents. This withheld from the reader the tablet,s layout in
the form ofcolumns, spaces, and rulings, and so deprived us ofvaluable clues
to the scribes' intentions.
Thirdly there is the condition of the tablets themselves. Except for the final
group of A55ur Temple offerings, only a handful of tablets in this volume aıe
intact, and a great many pieces are small fragments from large texts in several
columns. Many joins were made within this material by Johns himself and
otheı eally Assyriologists, and some joins have been added ıecently by Dr.
T. Kwasman and the editors, but only ıarely does this lead to a significant
improvement. This is primarily because a real understanding of administra-
tive documents is heavily dependent on having the introductory and closing
statements which tell us what the text is about; and these ale usually on the
most vulnerable pafts of the tablet, the top or bottom ends and corners.
In summaıy, it is only fair to acknowledge that the texts in this volume fall
far short of the standards set by Maıi or Ebla. They are not however as
valueless as their century of academic neglect might suggest. Repeated
collation and the improved understanding of Neo_Assyıian as a whole have
so]Ved many of the obscurities of the old ADD II, and the thematic gıouping
of the mateıia] has also enabled considerable advances in characterizing what
we have. In this introduclory chapter we have sought to give a broad view of
the natule of each group of texts, but this iS no substitute for fuıther detailed
studies: the prosopography of the Nineveh couıt has to be examined in the
light of all the lettels and legal and administrative texts, once fıeshly edited,
and there is undoubtedly progress to be made on the technical aspects of
textiles and precious metals, to mention only the two biggest groups.
XVI
ADMTNTSTRATTON OF PERSONNEI,
Administration of Personnel
Like almost every group of texts in this voiume, when attempting to define
theiı purpose we are hampered not only by their broken state, but also by the
general reluctance of the Neo-Assyrian scribes to give explanatory headings
or colophons to their administrative documents. Our first group (nos. 1-7)
includes texts with a similar folmat, that is, lists of names wiü or without
professional designations. Some of them were (untypically) dated and were
very close in time (cf. 16th Kanun for no. 3, 17th Kanun for no. 1; no. 5 was
also datöd). They give little indication of theiı puıpose; but the numerous
cases where the same peıson recurs in these texts and in the following group
(nos. 8- 12) suggests that they derive from the same administrative office, and
perhaps refer 1o the same occasion.
In fact, it may well be that their purpose is also similar to that of those texts
listing lodgings (müİubu).In no. 1, which is unique in its content and unusual
in being viıtually intact, the Glossenschrift notations GAğAN (i.e. "(to the
house of the) Lady,") and cüs ("(to the) Left (Palace)") taken with the
phrases "to the Crown Prince" and "to the house of the Lady [of the House]"
inno. 4 r.1.'7' and 12'point in this direction. Nos. 3 and 4 are very similar,
both texts having a left-hand column of "1"s befoıe the PN, but no. 4 wlites
NAM lather than (ıü.)EN.NA.I\,ü; the two texts list many of the same goveInors
in the same order, but are not duplicates. No. 5 probably belongs with these
because it too was dated (by day and presumably month; although now lost,
the date could also have been 16th Kanun). This is a straightforward list of
peısonal names with profession, in no order discernible to us; they are
members ofthe royal guard, ofthe staffof the crown prince, the queen mother
and of the chief eunuch, and probably therefore plesent within the palace.
Nos. 6 and 7 are veıy similar to no. 5, giving just a personal name and
profession in each line, and that they belong here is clear from some of the
peısons mentioned.
In ouı second group (nos. 7-12) officials in mixed gıoups of militaıy,
civilian and domestic staff, and listed by their name and pıofessional desig-
nation, are assigned to lodgings. one might be inclined to undeıstand the
word muİubu in a less concrete sense as "administıative post" or "position";
but when we look at no.9, in which the varioüs different lodgings are
described (e.g.) "central," "of the scribes," "the governor," "the brewer(s),"
the only satisfactory interpretation seems to be that these are strictly "topo-
xvtr

xVüI
ADMIMSTRATION OF PERSONNEL
This does not conflict with various indications pointing to the reign of
Esarhaddon or of Assuıbanipal for the date of this group and nos. 1-7. For
instance, Marduk-Sumu_uşul LÜ.GAL-HAL in no. 7 is well hıown as a diviner
(LAS 115-19; cf. LAS II 460-63), with a career slretching from 674 to 650 (pp.
469,477). He was already chief haruspex in 672, leaving open the possibility of
dating this gloup to late Esarhaddon. A more pıecise dating may become
possible, but cannot yet be proven, although Parpola has suggested a date for no.
1 of c. 650 B.C. (LAS II, 456). Nos. 3 and 4 must also belong in this time range
for prosopographical reasons, such as the mention of the govemors of Upumu
and Kullimmeri, provinces croated by Esarhaddon no earlier than 673 B.C.
Before leavinğ this group it is worth underlining its ephemeral naiure: all
the indications are that the lists ofofficials are drawn up, sometimes hastily,
for a specific and transient purpose. Despite the temptation to see them as
replesentative of some regular structure within the bureaucıacy, and hence
as providing a real insight into the hierarchy of Assyıian administration, they
should not be viewed in this light.
Most of the texts included here list people in separate groups without
professional designations for the individual members of the group. They are
by no means uniform, in content or format: they inclııde İelappayu aıd scribes
(no. 13), and a variety of craftsmen (nos. 14, 19). Nos. 16 and 17 belong
together although non-joining, and seem, like no. 15, to be concerned with
military peısonnel. No. 18 includes royal charioteers, but also Marduk-eriba,
the palace scribe, and a governor of Pumu (cf. no. 3:8'); a connection with
nos. 1-12 seems quite likely here.
Nos. 20 to 22 (and perhaps also no. 19) list groups by their pıofessional
designations wiüout giving their names. It is impossible to say whethel these
texts are in any way related to the previous ones, although they could be. Of
particular intelest are nos. 21 and 22: İhese are near duplicates, evidently
ıefeıring to the same bodies of people, with the numbers involved so high
that one might guess that if they refer to the personnel (ratheı than some
commodity, which seems unlikely) these final totals relate to the entire body
of militaıy, administrative or domestic personnel at Nineveh at the time.
In gıoup 4, no. 24 lists female personnel in large numbers, and nos. 25 and
26 are small fragments possibly related. Finally no. 23 is unique and its
purpose uncertain; the two faces are certainly written at different times and
perhaps by diffeıent scribes. As with gloup 3, it seems well possible that
some, at least, of the tablets in this group are lists prepared for the same event
as nos. 1- 12.

40), anotheı from Commagene (no. 31) and probably a village inspectoı from
the province of Lahiru (no. 35). The whole text of no. 28 seems to relate to
the plovince of Si'imme.
To sum up, this group appears to list a very miscellaneous range of debts
owed either to the central administration ("the palace"?) itself, or to members
of it individually, or even to persons not directly part of it. Given that our
only firm dates ale the years 715 and7l3 mentioned in no. 34, it is reasonable
to suppose that the circumstances surrounding the record of these debts
belong in the middle of Sargon's reign, and it would be perverse not to guess
that it has something to do with Sargon's financial arangements for the
construction of Dur-ğarruken. which is known to have involved the suspen-
sion of debts owed to Assyrian citizens (cf. ABL 1442 = SAA 1 159). It is
worlh noting that of the 18 fragments which compose nos.2'7-40 only one
(paıt ofno.29) comes from the 83- 1- 18 gıoup which, as we explained above,
is generally attributable to the reigns of Esarhaddon and Assurbanipal.
Nos. 41-48 form a less homogeneous group although they probably all
concern debts. A number of them are what we have called "Memoranda": this
is a class of tablets which tend to include rather more circumstantial com-
ments than the usual administrative text, often including statements in the 1st
person by some of the parties concerned, introduced by the particle m4 (nos.
43-47). Mostly they are single-column vertical tablets, often ruled into sec-
tions; two of them (nos. 45 and 48) began with a two line introductory heading
(unfoltunately broken), and otheıs whose beginning is lost may of course have
been similaı. No. 47 is an exception in having t',vo columns on each face, but
similar in other respects. In general the debts and obligations listed in this
group do not resemble those of group 5; they may paıtly however belong to
Sargon's reign too, since there is a clear connection between no. 45 and the
Sargon letters about the Qappateans (SAA 1 238-39), which are also concerned
with work at Dur-Sarruken. None of them comes from the 83- 1- 18 collection.

'fexİs 49-129 are all lists of things: tabiets, precious metals, precious
stones, miscellaneous metals, textiles, and texts with a vadety of com-
modities. Except for üe library recoıds (nos. 49-56)' the groups into which
we have divided them cannot be rigid: precious metals and stones are often
listed together, and some of the miscellaneous texts include precious items
or textiles, or even both, so that it is quite possible that a smaller fragment
on which only precious items or textiles are mentioned (and which is accord-
ingly placed in an earlieı group), was in fact part of a larger listing of
miscellaneous items. Nevertheless, it is most convenient to discuss the texts
in accoıdance with the groups in which they aıe placed.
These fragmentary lists from the reign of Assurbanipal were fully edited
and discussed by Parpola in his article "Assyrian library records" (JNES 42
t1983] 1-29). They are inciuded heıe for the sake of completeness with only
minor collations (note particularly no. 49 r.i.6') and the addition of no. 56, a
further piece identified and edited by W.G. Lambefi.
As wi1h other gıoups, neither the external appearance of these texts nor
their internal structure and contents permit us to reconsffuct a methodical
series. A few texts are cleaıly unique compilations for a single occasion,
others bear clear affinities to each other; but their broken state usually
prevents us from identifying theh specific puıpose excepl by guesswork.
In the ciıumstances, we have placed first the flagments from multi-column
tablets dealing with silver and gold, which may perhaps reflect the activities
of an administrative "office" within 1he palace, ıesponsible for documenting
the receipt and/or disbursement of precious materials. The shorter memo-
ıanda and notes (Nos.71-81) follow, while Nos.82-86 are conceıned with
pıecious (or rather semi-precious) stones, which weıe probably handled by
the same "office," since they are occasionally listed togetheı with silver and
)o(II
INVENTORIES, RECEIPTS AND DISBURSEMENTS
gold. Nos. 87 -92 deal with other, base, metals, mostly copper, and may well
be unassociated with each other and with the precious metal texts.
Of the texts which can be dated, one probably (no. 58) and two certainly
(nos. 57 and 79) belong to the ıeign of Sargon. No. 60 pıobably and nos. 59
and 61 certainly date to the reign of Assurbanipal; no.77 may also. These
texts therefore mirror the chronological disffibution of the Neo-Assyrian
letters, belonging eitheı befoıe or after the reign of Sennacherib (pace Zadok'
whose reasons for dating no. 58 to his reign do not seem to us compelling).
This justifies a mild a priori assumption that the majority of the undated texts
in this group will belong to one of these two reigns.
Although the Neo-Assyrian administration seems (at least to judge from its
cuneiform output on ciay) to have been much less bureaucratic than some of
its pıedecessors, it is only to be expected that meticulous accounts of gold
and silver were kept. Equally it is no surprise to find such aıchives in the
royal palace (rather than the akal mdğdrti oİ some such establishment, where
we might well expect mole texts referring to üe baser metals than we have
here): incoming valuables would have tended to be items presented to the
king himself, the king or those in his immediate entourage ırould tend to
authorize disbursement of valuable elite items, and finally it is likely that the
intrinsic and symbolic value of the silver and gold would have led to its
ıemaining under direct royal supervision. Thus it is not too suryrising that,
like the correspondence of Sargon, some of the documents relating to
precious metals were retained in the palace chancery and eventually reached
Nineveh, no doubt via the same loute.
The only official we can identify with responsibility for the precious metals
is Keni, who is responsible in no. 79 (mentioning 71 1 B.C.) for the remarkable
quantity of nearly 5 talents of gold, and probably also figuıes in no. 86, which
deals with pıecious stones. It is surely the same Keni who issues silver in ND
2650 (Iraq 23 Pl. XXI, probably dated to 713 B.C.), and it seems quite
possible that his son is mentioned in a letter from Saıgon's treasurel con_
ierned with gold and silver (ABL 1458 = SAA 1 52, perhaps after the death
of Keni himself?). Unfortunately, in none of these instances do we learn his
official position; it is impossible to say whether the Keni of ABL 90 = SAA
1 76, who is designated LÜ.A.BA-6.fu], was the same person. Nor is it clear
if no. 79 derives from his own "department" or from anothel doing business
with him.
Be that as it may, we may fai y assume for the moment that nos. 57 and
58, which belong to the same period, a"lıd ale externally similaı to each other,
also belonged archivally with the same department. No. 58 is a list of
disbursements of gold and silver rings, etc. to visiting delegations at different
times and places. Most of these gifts were perhaps made in the royal palace
at Calah or Dur-Sarıuken (if the attribution to Salgon is correct), but in at
least two cases the delegations ale said to have bıought their horses or tlibute
to Arbil, and this presumably means that the king was there en route to or
from a campaign. This is the accountant's record of events \üe find in the
royal annals described in terms like this (cİ. Fig. 2 on p. XXI): "I clothed
(them) with coloured garment(s), I bound their wrists with toıcs of gold, and
I stationed them before me'' (lubuki birme ulabbiğ HAp.ME* KUG.GI urakkisa
rifieİun ina mahrİya ulzissunutii stleck Asb. p.20 1i-93f.; see NARGD pp.

!l-a fy similar passages in the annals and in a royal land-gıant; and, for
Sennacherib. Luckenbiil Senn.45 and 89).
No. 103, like no. 58, has thıee narıow columns on each face and is of almost
identical width, although more carefully written. It partly lists ıeceipts of
silver, including 1,1 12 items fıom the Governor of Qui on the 2gİh of iyyaı,
but then goes on (in a section intıoduced by za'uzzi' the NA equivalenl oi
ğA.sa.) to record-out-3ayments to-visiting delegations from tıie receipts,
including one in Dur-Saıruken on the 9th of Sivin and another in the sime
month at a place whose name is lost. In other words, this account tablet
confirms that, dudng Sargon's reign at least, documentation of both receipts
and disbursements of these precious metals was handled by a single depatt_
m€nt closely attached to the royal palace. It seems likely thjt the fiist coıumn
of the tablet lists gifts made to the king by some of his high state officials,
but the breaks, especially of the beginning of the heading in i.1, mean thai
we cannot be suıe that they gave' ralher than received.
-
No oüeı pieces in this gıoup celtainly belong with the Salgon archives
(although nos. 73 and 86 could well do so), and ouı ensuinğ discussion
assumes that the remainder, with the exception of no. 60, which is from the
reign of Esarhaadon, belong broadly to the reign of Assuıbanipal. The short
noİe no.77 is linked through its mention of Abda,, the governor of Rasappa,
to the lists of high officiais nos. 3 and 4, which date to the reign of Assuı_
banipal. In this gıoup too a few pieces have a clearly secular context: no.59
is a 6 year summary of receipts, referring to such well known secular
categories as iğkaru and maddattui and no. 78 is a store-room inventory of
items, like hunüeds of silver bowls and ingots, best known as components
in tribute deliveıies.
The range ofprecious items recorded in these evidently secular contexts is
usually quite restricted. This is hardty surprising: the texts themselves make
it clear that they are listing the regular currency of elite exchange between
the royal palace and its clients and high-ranking dependants in ind outside
the country. There is a limited range of conventionaf,,gifts',: commonest are
heavy rings or toıcs (HAR = ğabirru,the Assyıian form o} oB İewirum). These
are sometimes specified as for the "arm" (durd'i) or,,wrist" (ritte), but more
often weighed: from no' 58 we leaın that they may weigh as much as 1 mina,
with smaller ones of a half, a third or a quarter of a mina, and the smallest
are simply qualified as "thin" (sıc = qatnu?). other ornaments weıe also
distributed in this text, including the obscııre kurinarc (no' 58: also in no. 73),
and the type of ring called, qudasu (no.58). These items are usually going out
from the royal treasury. others are coming in: the ,,fish,, of no. 57 are ğuite
obscuıe, but the silvel bowls (kappu) which may be given the speiific
'
description "tribute bowls" (tdpp i maddatte) and sometimes at least ;ighed
i mina each, are readily recognized on the reliefs in the hands of tıibute-
bearers.
In contrast, seveıal of the multi-column tablets listing a different, and
rather exotic, range of items have clear connections with the temples. Most
explicit (because best pıeserved) are nos. 60 and 62. No. 60 ]ists iiems from
Akkad retuıned fıom Elam, and is probably to be connected with the incident
mentioned in the Esarhaddon Chronicle for 674/3 B.C. when Iğtar and the
other gods of Akkad were returned to Babylonia by Urtaku (Grayson

Textiles
Nos. 93- 106 form a remarkable group of iabels bearing lists of textiles, and
generally showing both stamp seal impressions and traces of the Stıing to
which the iabels were affixed. As may be seen from Plaıes V-VI, they are not
all of the same type. The only compietely preserved labels are nos. 93 and
94, each inscribed horizontally and bearing a centıally placed stamp seal
impression on one or both faces. Both are dated, one to 681 B.C., the other
to 658 B.C., and they evidently refer to small transactions within the admin-
istration: no. 93 names one person responsible, Ağğuı-killanni, and another
from whom the textiles seem to have come. No. 94 just lists the textiles and
gives a date. One can only presume that each of these labels was attached to
the textiles it mentions.
The remainder of this group probably all come from much laıger labels;
many fragments also show one or more stamp seal impıessions, and there are
string holes in some. Others can only be identified as parts of labels by their
shape, tapering in one or two directions. The best example of these larger
labels is no. 95; like all the other larger pieces, it is inscribed vertically, that
is to say with the lines parallel to the short axis of the label, from the short,
straight, top edge down towards the naırower end. The size of these labels
evidently reflects the amount of information the scribes wished to put on
them. They give us long lists of different kinds of textile, recorded in precise
detail. The individual entries are not huge (45 gulenu in no. 96; 77 textiles in
no. 101;60 maqaİi inno. 104), and totals are in the hundreds, not thousands
(100 plus in no. 96; 300 plus in no. 101; 700 plus in no. 104). Neveıtheless,
these are quantities which could not have been contained in a bundle secured
by a single sealing; it seems probable therefore that the labels come from
either lalge chests or sealed ıooms.
It is difficult to be precise about the nature of the textiles listed. Some are
certainly pieces of clothing, others rugs or blankets. Details are given of their
shape, material and colour, but they are telegraphic and many terms remain
obscure. For an attempt to classify them see below. Frustratingly, none of
these pieces is preserved at the end of the text where one might expect to be
told of the nature of the consignment; we can only speculate that they relate
to tribute (maddattu\, audience gifts (ndmurtu) ot similar contributions to the
xx\ıI
INVENTORIES, RECEIPTS AND DISBURSEMENIS
term should refer to a part of the textile which is usually different from the
main body of it, and is further described by its colour or otheı quality under
Group E' For zAG the Akkadian patu and lhe meaning "front'' is pıobable,
although not apparently otherwise attested in connection with clothing. Inter-
preting the multivalent LAGAB sign is more difficult, but the best option seems
to be NlciN = liwıtu, ınNeo-Assyrian probably /ib'r, (unless it were the word
libu, atİesİed inMiddle Assyrian, cf. Assur 2/iv |l979l6; Donbaz, Festschrift
Gaıelli [Paris 1991]"79). This is likewise unattested for clothing, but can
easily be taken to refer either to a decorative feature, such as an encircling
"band" or a strip of "edging," which would appropriately be in a different
colour. In one case (no. 109) the doubled sign NIGIN is used; since the entries
on this tablet differ from the usual it is hard to say whether NIGIN is the same
as NIGiN, but it is at least possible.
Group E (colouı): The simple colour terms in use aıe clear: "white''
(BABBAR = paş(i)u)' "black" (clu = şalmu), "red" (sa,, usually written with
one less vertical than sI+A, and probably to be ıead sdmu |NA form?]). We
also have cüN(.l) = birmu "multi-coloured." Each of these colours may give
the colour of the main garment or textile, but black and especially red are
often referring to the Group D details, the "front" or "band." sA, is often
furtheı qualified by one of the terms KAR oI KUR, which can be seen fıom no.
105 or no. 120 to be alternatives. For KAR it is certain from ND 2307:14-15
SİG.SA, ka-a-ri that we have the word karu "porİ''; this is peıhaps therefore
"commercial ıed," while KUR might be "country'' (matu) or perhaps "moun-
tain" (ğadi)' hence "natural red." There does also appear to be a "limestone
ıed'' (sı' pu-li; nos. 107 and 108), which might be associated wi1h sA, NA.
"stone ıed" in nos. 96 and 105. Evidently a Valiety of red dyes was in use,
which weıe sufficiently distinctive to be ıeadily differentiated by the admin-
istrative officials. These distinctions apply only to "red,'' as may be told fıom
the cases where the scıibes have omitted the colour, merely wıiting r,ln.
Group F (miscellaneous details): Towards the end of the sequence of
designations there are many terms which remain enigmatic or completely
obscure, sııch as melir1u ("worn, rubbed''?), KA (= appu "fıinge''?), Nu
(probably denoting the absence of a featuıe), gubli ("of Byblos''?), etc., etc.
They no doubt refer to atlributes of various kinds.
Group G (size): In a few instances the scribe simply adds "big'' (GAL.MEğ)
or "small" (qAı-). More frequent are indications of the weight, found at the
end of the sequence in nos. 106-109. The weights range from 3l4 ıo | 2/3
minas (a mina being roughly 1 lb. or 0.45 kg.). What these entıies mean is
clear from no. 108 i.10'-12': here we have an entry of 18 textiles, ending with
"l l/2 minas," followed by 59 textiles classed as "I 1/3 mina" and 5 as "1
l/4 mina"; both the variation in the number of textiles and the descending
order of the weights show that the final entıies refer to the weight of each
individual textile in the group.
Tlpes of Textile
A numbeı of the textiles in ouı lists recur in military contexts, where they
presumably refer to various garments worn or items used by soldiers: ADD
)o(VfiI
INVENTORIES, RECEIPIS AND DISBURSEMENTS
Texts I 18- 129 are lists or inventories which could not be classified in one
of the preceding groups because they include a variety of items. In no. 118
with iti stones, horses, and workdays in three separate sections, this associ-
ation seems merely to reflect totally unconnected matters jotted down for
convenience on a single tablet, bu1 in the majority of texts there seems to be
a ıepetitive association of food (including animals), wine, textiles, shoes and
othar leather items, and occasional other things, which cannot be coinciden-
tal. As with the precious metal texts, we have placed first the fragments of
multi-column tablets (nos. I2O-123), several of them very small. In their
broken state, they offer few clues to the administrative context of the lists.
More revealing, because more nearly complete, are some of the single-col-
umn texts. No. 127 is the most explicit: textiles, shoes and precious metals
given to the Urarlian ambassadors, followed with a note of silver tribute
bowls and a silveı ring. Here we are clearly in the same environment as the
precious metal texts from the reign of Sargon (nos. 57 and 58). The character
of this "package" of items, issued to distinguished visitors, pıovides a
possible explanation for similar, less explicit, texts. Thus no. 126 mentions
packages which include precious metals and stones, textiles, a horse, chariot
and arrows, in association with a number of Assyrian officials; but it does not
tell us whether they are the ıecipients or the givers. The same doubt could
afflict us with the laconic note no. 128, and virtually all the fragments of
longer account tablets. Nevertheless, where food and drink ale combined with
items of personal attire like shoes and hats, it is clear these assemblages are
very much associated with the individual persons involved, and one is force-
fulfu reminded of the sandals and other supplies issued to envoys in the Mari
texti. we need not be surprised to find these texts in our aıchive, if they
reflect palace hospitality for visiting dignitaries and high officials.

STATE ARCHIVES OF ASSYRIA Vtr
At ffust sight nos. 130-i36 are similar to the previous group, but they are
almost exclusively concerned with food and drink. That these payments also
have some formal-significance is suggested in paıticular by the numbeıs of
animals listed: "1 ox and 10 sheep" found in nos. 133, 134, and, a recurrent
listing of I sisalhu and 2 or 3 sheep in the 'Sammeltext' no. 136. That most
of these contributions are made by, rather than to, the persons named is
explicitly suggested by nos. 130 (with no. 131 which closely resembles it)
and 132, with their concluding remarks "to the Lady of the House" and "to
the Queen." No. 131 is important since it mentions anofficial of ğamağ-metu-
uballiç, one of Esarhaddon's sons (foı whom see LAS II, p' 118). By com-
parison with these, it is reasonable to guess that no. 136 also lists receipts,
from a variety of provincial officials. As for the reason for these contribu-
tions, the obvious category would be "audience glfİS'' (nfunurtu), since these
are known to have been made to highly placed persons in addition to the king
himself, and we can only tegret that the broken state of the texts has probably
deprived us of certainty on this point.

ACCOIINTS OF FOOD AND DRINK
two texts definitely concerned with aromatics. They are here because Johns
included them in ADD, but in theiı present condition it is impossible to know
if they are really administıative. on the other hand, we have omitted flom
this Volume ADD 1042 and l7l1 which aıe medical prescriptions and cer-
tainly do not belong.
Nos. 148-157 have been grouped together because each text lists a simiiar
varied group of mostly edible items associated with the names or professions
of people. The 7 pieces (nos. 148-154), which have been edited in the form
of a composite text by Mattila in SAAB 4 (1990) 1-22, ııder the title
"Balancing the accounts of the royal New Year's reception," belong veıy
closely togetheı and may be considered fiIst. It is probable that, as indicated
by Mattila, each of these pieces derived from a tablet with 4 columns on each
face, and that they can be mutually ıestored to yield very similaı continuous
texts as she has done. It must be noted, though, that the tablets themselves do
not form a matching set, differing as they do in their physical appearance (see
Plates VIII-IX), and that in some cases the entries differ in their amounts,
making it certain that they are not strictly duplicates - something which
would in any case be suıprising in an administrative context. Hence one must
agree with Mattila that the seven texts probably "refer to seven different
occasions," or to be more cautious, "periods." In the following discussion we
make use of her line numbering of the composite text, and the reader will
need to consult her article foı discussion of many detailed problems.
Following Mattila, we should see the composite text as divided into a first
half (18-176) which lists "amounts of edible commodities defined either by
person/place or by a qualifying adjective," and a second half on the reverse
of each tablet which gives "official titles, military, administrative, priestly
and scholarly, each preceded by a figure."
The arrangement of the first section is partly by the type of food. From
67-90 the only meat specified is beef; from 96-112 rhey are sheep, from
116-131 birds, Iodents and fish. That the oıganization into sections was
deliberate is evident from the sub-totals in 71,94, and especially 108 and 112,
which deserve a more detailed comment. In 108 (= no. 754 |.13') "65 sheep,
the meal" is the total for the preceding 7 lines; the previous entries, although
not fully understood, aıe likely to include or imply some similar statement as
to the origin or purpose of the sheep, as well as their culinary details.
Similarly in 110 the "scholars (and) brick-masons" are mentioned, while in
112 we probably have a summation for the complete section 96-1 11, which
tells us that these were the "sheep - consumption." In other words, this
xxxl
STATE ARCHIVES OF ASSYRIA VII
The range and order of foodstuffs in the first sections is so similar to those
in texts which ceıtainly list offerings, that the plesent editors agree with
Mattila that they probably are dedved from temple offeıings. However, firm
evidence for this is difficult to find, since secu}aı e]ite meals were doubtless
little different from those of the gods, and the order in which they are listed
need be no more than a scribal habit.
Similarly, the identity of the persons and officials named does not help: we
could equally well assume either that persons connected with the court were
expected to make conüibutions, or that they were recipients.
xxxIl
İiı.
ACCOUNTS OF FOOD AND DRINK
With the other details we seem to have two choices: either the subsidiaıy
comments refel to the desıinaıion of the sheep, and their origin is the same
in each case, or their destination may be supposed to be the same, and their
origins different. At first sight it is not self-evident which of these is correct,
but if we are to understand the texts at all the issue will need to be resolved.
Historical Context
Paipola's suggestion that these are "accounts of food and possibly gifts
distributed at the royal New Year's reception" (quoted by Mattila, SAAB 4,
16) is undoubtedly seductive, but hardly susceptible of pıoof. If each text
were separated by a year, or 6 months (if we assume such a ceremony took
place twice a year), it could explain the physical diffeıences between the
tablets, in spite of their textual similarity; but in that case it is a little
surprising that they should have remained together sufficiently to be reunited
as a gloup, given the generally fıagmented nature of the Iest ofthe collection.
As obseıved by Mattila, the names of Esarhaddon's children at the beginning
of the text pıesumably date it to his reign, and we would not reject as
implausible the Suggestion that "the exceptionally high figuıes in A may
reflect .... early 672, when Esarhaddon assembled "all Assyria" to take the
oath ofloyalty..." (SAAB 4, 16 footnote 5).
Three tablets (nos. 155, 156 and 157) aıe closely related to the group but
not strictly part of it. No. 156 has names listed against commodities, most of
which are familiar from nos. 148-154, but which include at least some fruit
(duqdi). The size of the tablet is not known, but it was unusually thin and is
unlikely to have held four columns peı face. No. 155 is almost celtainly a
small, single-column vertical tablet, the headline of which may be understood
to say "Second(?) meal of the pal[ace]," after which it records a number
against a succession ofhigh personages, beginning with the queen, the crown
prince and the chief sukkallu. This reminds us of the early part of the
composite text, but there is nothing more to substantiate the connection.
Finally no. 157 is a little more revealing. The obverse is divided into
sections listing shekels (presumably of silver) against personal names (one
of which is again Esarhaddon's son Samağ-metu-uballi1). The end of the
reverse lists persons identified either by name or by (usually military) pro-
fession, with two figuıes against each name which refer to "tables'' and beer,
if we may judge from the colophon which immediately follows. This states
"Total: 74 tables, 51(+) bowls (of beeı), 2 ..., distribu1ion." The two broken
lines which follow aıe probably to be understood as "[The ...]s consumed in
the [...] house; [the remain]der of the tables were distıibuted to the palace
(or: house) personnel [...]." If only this text were a little better preserved, it
might well have supplied important clues to the rest of the group. For one
thing, it hints that seculaı palace employees were ıeceiving food and drink
xx)(Itr
STATE ARCI{IVES OF ASSYRIA VII
originating from temple offerings, as has been suggested for nos. 148-154;
and for another, the colophon does not seem to take account of the shekels
listed on the obverse, suggesting that like the composite text, it ıvas an
account in two halves, and that the obverse listed payments into, the reverse
distributions fıom the same administrative office. However, at present this
can be no more than speculation.
The texts in this section are frequently similar to some ofnos. I3o-|44'bıır
in each case there is, or we suspect, a connection with the temples. The
majority list foods, often the same commodities as in the preceding secular
banquets. Nos. 159 and 160 are valuable in that their concluding lines tell us
that they are listing "sacıifices of the Chief Eunuch/the Commander-in-
Chief' foı a particular day. As in the large group of A5Ğul Temple offering
lists, the tablets are often dated by day, and no doubt this reflects the fact that
the offerings were destined for paıticular meals on specified days, and
punctual delivery was essential. The texts which follow (nos. 161-163) are
physically veıy similar to one anoüer and pıobably come from the same hand.
They list standardized bundles of contributions (animais, bıead, vegetables
etc.) flom vaıious provinces and officials: there is no formal proof that these
are in fact offerings (rather than secular contributions), but they are included
here in the light of the galirişdte bread which we also find in no. 159.
Some of these miscellaneous listings include items other than food. Nos.
166 and |67 are both headed' ğazbussu, a technical term in need of some
elucidation. Apart from etymology (zEi S), which entitles us to expect a
meaning like "delivery," the best evidence comes from the correspondence:
heıe officials wfiting to the king make it quite clear that it refers to contribu-
tions organized by the administration for some of its employees.In ABL 546
these deliveries go to cavahymen and include, apparently, the means of
establishing a househo_ld (including pigs and basic furniture), no doubt as part
ofthe creation of Dur-Sarruken. The context here seems to be entirely secular.
On the other hand ABL 167, now SAA 1 128, is concerned with deliveries of
the "additional regular offerings" of bread and beer for the Nabü Temple at
Dur-ğarruken. and whether the authoI of the letter or another official should
make pıovision for this. Evidently these contributions were measuıed by the
number of altars (Gl.DUs = patıru) supplied; likewise no. 77 4:9'ff . gives us a
list of the individual components of an "equipped table'' (paİİüru tallulu).In
ABL 558 also the correspondent is concerned about the failure of one of two
pıovincial governors to supply a ğazbussu delivery requested by a royal
officer, although it is not clear whether the "work" (dullu) for which these
deliveries are needed is of a secular oı cultic character. We have guessed that
both no. 166 and no. 167 relate to temple offerings. No such guesswork is
needed with no. 175, since it has preserved its summary as "supplementaıy
o fferings ol the Queen."
Quite why texts recording offeıings to temples were found in the palace is
hard to explain convincingly, but the same problem affects the A5Ğur Temple
)OOCV
ACCOUNTS OF FOOD AND DRINK
texts (see below). From the gods in no. 175 = Bel, Nabü, ğarrat-samme and
(Li)sikkutu (this last perhaps a deified piece of temple equipment)
- we
cannot determine the temple concerned, or whether it was within the palace
precincts or a more public shrine. Of the other pieces mentioning deities by
name no. 158, with Ağğur, Mullissu and Iğtar could belong with the final
group, while to make an attribution of no. 171 we would really requiıe more
than the end of its list of gods.
These tablets all derive fıom a single archive which appears to replesent
lists of offelings presented in the Temple of Ağğur. The archive has been
discussed in detail by van Driel in his Appendix to 7lı e Cult of Aİİur (Leiden
1969), and his conclusions may serve as the basis for a summary description
here (note that we have also included ADD 1025 as no. 187 and 1031 as no.
202, and three pieces not then published, nos. 200, 210 and 219). Although
definitely discovered on Kuyunjik (as the provenance of nos. I92 and 191
shows, see van Driel p. 206), the texts mention offerings to the god A55ur
himself, to his spouse Mullissu, and to Dagan; these shıines must have been
in the Ağğuı Temple at AssuI itself, and this location is furtheI suppolted by
the mention of the "mausoleum" (kimahhu). Why these tablets should have
been found at Nineveh remains obscuıe, but part of the explanation must be
that the contributions come from members of the royal household.
Each tablet gives an inventory "of commodities present on a certain day in
a certain department ofthe temple" (p. 207). These commodities are tabulated
by van Driel in the chart at the end of his book, and although joins and
collations peımit some corıections of detail (e.g. the addition oİ lipİati and
bandillu to the varieties of meat offering), the broad picture remains valid.
Our order differs from his, as we have stafied from the extemal format of the
tablet: nos. 184-188 are horizontal tablets, all with short texts evidently
referring to a single consignment. Nos. 189-208 are relatively smail vertical
tablets, but often with more than one section, while nos. 2o9-22I aıe largeı
vertical tablets in small, densely written script (see the photographs on Plates
X-XI). Some of the ionger texts are divided into more than one section, and
it seems likely that they may include details taken from two or more smaller
tablets, although no direct borrowing can be proved. The sections in question
tend to follow a regular oıder, as observed by van Driel (p. 210f):
1. offerings for the Chapel of Dagan;
2. "remnants" (rchati) "which were before A55uı";
3. offeıings for the "wedding ıighı'' (qurİu) of Mullissu;
4. "new regular offerings" (ginfi eİİu); and
5. special cases, which include the enigmatic takpu "before Bel"
(takpu İa IGI dEN, no. 189 r.13 and no. |96 r.I2ğ.
There is also one instance of offeıings before Iğtar (no. 195).
The people mentioned in these texts fall into donors and administrators,

ON THE PRESENT EDITION
This volume includes all the cuneiform documents thought to have been
found on the acropolis at Nineveh dea]ing with the internal administıation of
the palaces, and associated subjects. The great bulk of this material was first
published in Johns, Assyrian Deeds and Documen s, mostly in Vol. II (1901)
but some already in Vol. I (1898), nevertheless this is the first serious attempt
at an edition of most of these texts. In addition, we aıe able to include a few
pieces excavated subsequently by the two Bıitish Museum expeditions of
1904-5 and 1929, a single tablet from a pfvate collection (no. 210), and other
usually small fragments recently identified in the Kuyunjik collection. A
number ofjoins have been made within the material since Johns prepared his
copies, both by Johns himself and by others; of the recent joins the majority
have been made by Dr. T. Kwasman (cf. SAAB 4, 77-78). Copies offragments
not previously published in copy have been prepared by Postgate and appeaı
at the end of the volume.
one or two of these texts could equally well have been reserved foı the
second volume of documenıs dealing with provincial and military adminis_
tration (e.g. nos' I27 and 128). Similaıly, we may well have left fol that
volume pieces which couldjust as well have been included here. The cıiterion
for inclusion heıe was little more than an intuition that a tablet was concerned
with internal palace administration, or that it showed some similarity to such
a tablet and so belonged with it. Texts concemed with temple offerings claim
their place here because the largest group (of A55ur Temple offerings) seems
to be closely associated with the royal family, and the other offerings texts
have been included accordingly.
There is no right way of arranging texts of this sort, especially when they
include small fragments. In some groups the few dated pieces have been
placed first, and on the whole large, multi-column, tablets or fragments of
them have preceded single column pieces. But neitheı of these criteıia gives
sufficient guidance for the detailed ordering, and again we have simply tried
as much as possible to put like with like and not wony too much.

STATE ARCHIVES OF ASSYRIA VII
Collations
Both üe age of Johns' copies and the technical difficulty of the texts
themselves have necessitated unusually heavy collation. Some of the texts
were collated by Postgate in the 1970's for his editions in TCAE; more than
half of the remaining texts in the volume were collated by S. Parpola in 1982.
The results of both were incorpolatöd in the Helsinki alchive which forms
the basis of the transliterations. For the current edition each text was collated
again by Postgate: that is to say, the entire text was matched to the translite-
rations, not just passages which seemed doubtful. This is essential, if only
because the ADD copies have not infrequently omitted whole lines oı even
sections of a text. However, a first collation is often insufficient, and bİoken
oı difficult passages have often been checked two or three times. We do not
however imagine that these are definitive: every further collation yields fresh
results. A number of passages were collated by Parpola from the photographs
provided for the plates and are so marked in the cıitical apparatus.
An ideal would have been to ıecopy every piece. This would have been
especially valuable in this case because the format of administrative texts,
with theil columns and ıulings, often implicitly conveys information not
present in the words alone, and the ADD copies do not usually transmit this.
We must crave indulgence for shirking this massive commitment of time and
effoıt, but the photographs on Plates I_XI may help the reader to gain a
geneıal idea of the appearance of the texts in the diffeıent groups.
Results of collation aıe indicated with exclamation marks. Single exclama-
tion marks indicate corrections to published copies, double exclamation
marks, scıibal erors. Question marks indicate uncertain or questionable
ıeadings. Broken poltions of text and all restorations are enclosed within
square brackets. Parentheses enclose items omitted by ancient scribes or
explanatory material inserted by the editors. An asterisk (*) after the figure
4 (and occasionally other figuıes) means that the figule is written with
horizontal, rather than the usual vertical wedges.
The transliterations were in principle established by Postgate, and the
translations by Fales, in each case with frequent input from the other editor
and from the editorial staff in Helsinki. The Introduction is laıgely the work
of Postgate. In the translations rather than leave a row of dots or repeat the
Akkadian word, we have adopted a conventional English equivalent foı
certain frequently recuffing technical terms, while marking their uncertainty
by italicizing the words in question: readers aıe asked not to take such
renderings as a firm proposal on our part.
Uncertain or conjectural translations are indicated by italics. Interpretative
additions to the translation are enclosed within parentheses. Al1 restorations
aıe enclosed within square brackets. UntIanSlatable passages aıe indicated by

dots. FoI the Ağğur Temple offerings, a score of all the texts was created by
Parpola which made the proper reconstructions obvious in almost all cases.
Month names are rendered by theiı Hebrew equivalents, followed by a
Roman numeral (in parentheses) indicating the place of the month within the
lunaı year. Personal, divine and geographical names are rendered by English
or Biblical equivalents if a well-established equivalent exists (e.g., Esarhad-
don, Nineveh); otherwise, they are given in tıanscription with length marks
deleted. The normalization of West-Semitic names generally follows the
conventions of Zadok West Semites. West Semitic phonemes not expressed
by the writing system (/o/ etc.) have generally not been restituted in the
normalizations, and the sibilant system follows the NA orthography.
The rendering of professions is a compromise between the use of accurate
but impractical Assyrian terms and inaccurate but practical modem or classi-
cal equivalents. For the numerous vessels and containers that occur in the
texts,;n attempt has been made to translate each with a sepaıate term. Again,
it is not asseIted that this terminology is coırect or that it corresponds to
modern usage.
Critical Apparatus
The primary purpose ofthe critical apparatus is to support the ıeadings and
translations established in the edition, and it consists largely of ıefelences to
collations of questionable passages, scribal mistakes corrected in the trans-
literation, and alternative interpretations or restorations of ambiguous
passages. Restorations based on easily verifiable evidence (e.g., parallel
passages found in the text itself) are generally not explained in the appara-

the interpretation of the texts, but it is not a commentary. Comments are kept
to a minimum, and are mainly devoted to problems in the text, elucidation of
lexical items or Akkadian expressions necessarily left untranslated. The his-
