Introduction

This small fragment, of which only the colophon is preserved, belongs in all likelihood to a tablet of the commentary series Sîn ina tāmartīšu. It was one of the many manuscripts of this series found at Nineveh that were once owned by Nabû-zuqup-kēna. According to its colophon, it was copied from a wooden writing board from Babylon.
