Description
In this volume, Noemi Borrelli publishes 240 Messenger Texts from the city of Umma, texts that are currently housed in the collections of the Yale Babylonian Collection and the Harvard Museum of the Ancient Near East. Earlier volumes of Nisaba published nearly 900 similar Messenger Texts that are in the collections of the British Museum.

These administrative records provide data on the allotment of rations and disbursement of goods and thus form a basis for further study of the sociology and economics of Neo-Sumerian times in and around the city of Umma.
