lines, where the text is divided between morning and evening ritual instructions, and be-
tween the lines 8 and 9 of column II of the reverse. The width of the tablet is about 14cm,
and it is about 1.3cm thick at the edge. The tablet was probably about 2.8cm thick at the
centre. The obverse is quite flat while the reverse is convex. The clay is free from impuri-
ties and is a light terracotta throughout.

This is a fragment from the bottom left corner, written in a Neo-Assyrian script that is
slightly less well executed that tablets B and D. From the remaining surface there are no
horizontal or vertical rulings on the outside margins of the tablet.

The script is Neo-Assyrian, written in regularly sized signs. There are horizontal rulings
separating the text into sections. There is a small part of the right edge preserved, and this
shows no horizontal ruling. The horizontal direction of the lines is very regular.
M, K8994
The script is Neo-Assyrian and of a similar type to tablet J. The top left edge of the tablet
shows no rulings, but the signs are aligned on a very straight vertical and horizontal axis.
