Given the pedagogical orientation of the SAACT series, we thought it best to publish this new tablet separately in a context that would allow us to give it the individual attention it deserves. A full partitur of Ludlul is available on the Corpus of Ancient Mesopotamian Scholarship web site (http://oracc.museum.upenn.edu/cams/ludlul/corpus). We would like to thank the Akkadian Reading Group at the University of California–Berkeley, led by Laurie Pearce, Simo Parpola at the University of Helsinki, and Uri Gabbay at the Hebrew University, Jerusalem for their help in dealing with this difficult material. They are not, of course, responsible for any of the judgments, interpretations, and/ or errors in this work. The sole responsibility lies with the authors. We thank the trustees of the British Museum for permission to publish this tablet as well as C. B. F. Walker, who has generously shared with us his time and expertise.The abbreviations used here follow The Assyrian Dictionary of the Oriental Institute of The University of Chicago.PDFPDF PLUS Add to favoritesDownload CitationTrack CitationsPermissionsReprints Share onFacebookTwitterLinkedInRedditEmail SectionsMoreDetailsFiguresReferencesCited by Journal of Near Eastern Studies Volume 70, Number 2October 2011 Article DOIhttps://doi.org/10.1086/661043 Views: 33Total views on this site © 2011 by The University of Chicago.
