| Sumario: | In this contribution a critical edition of five cuneiform tablets from Spanish private collections is presented. More specifically, the texts provide new information on the administration of the city of Adab during the first half of Narām-Suen’s reign (ca. 2290-2250 BCE), and also exemplify some of the activities of leather processing at the Niĝšana’s leather workshop at the time of the Third Dynasty of Ur (2112-2004 BCE). The texts, dated to Sargonic period through late Ur III/Early Old Babylonian period, come from the cities of Adab (nos. 1 and 2) and Niĝšana (nos. 3 and 4), whereas no. 5, which records wool disbursement to nine individuals, is of uncertain provenience. |
