Cuneiform Tablet. 76 x 55 mm. x 26 mm. thick. The tablet is missing the upper right corner and is cracked in several places but otherwise complete. The surface, however, has been intentionally effaced and scratched out in antiquity, when it was still pliable. Clearly the scribe wanted to void the tablet because of errors, or perhaps because the transaction was suddenly changed. A few signs are readable but no complete word is readable. The cylinder seal impression on the left edge is in the Syrian style, 2nd millennium BC. Because of the presence of the seal impression, the tablet was likely a contract. A nice large tablet, excellent for display.
Estimated Value $300 - 400.
