專家說明


This administrative tablet is dated to the third month of the 46th year of Shulgi, second king of the Third Dynasty of Ur. The tablet is likely from the present-day site of Drehem in Southern Iraq, where there was an important clearing centre for cattle and sheep. The tablet records the issue of sheep and/or goats for sacrifices to various gods.
