Abstract

Seven tablets from the National Museum of Iraq in Baghdad are edited here for the first time. They date early in the long reign of Rim-Sin I of Larsa, and presumably come from that site, modern Senkereh in southern Iraq. They throw light on rituals held in the palace, and on international relations through the envoys who attended.
