Box 1 Item: 1 Cotsen ID: 31718.1 School text, lexical exercise of divine epithets Old
Babylonian Period (c. 1900-1600 BCE)
Translation:
1. Ashgi of the animal pen
2. Ashgi of the long-lasting animal pen
3. Wise Ashgi
Physical Description: 3 1/4" diameter x 5/8" depth, lentil joined from fragments
Condition: A lenticular tablet that has been broken into at least six pieces and
repaired with adhesive. The repairs are best viewed from the unincised face. This face
has multiple losses and has adhesive residue on much of the surface as well as in
cracks. The incised face has a strange surface texture, perhaps a light textile or finger
print impression? There are two side-by-side gouges on this face that appear to have
been made with a modern tool.
Language of Material: Sumerian
Scope and Content Note
This tablet contains a student exercise listing the epithets for the deity Ashgi.
