  • Provenience: Puzriš-Dagan (mod. Drehem) Provenience Comments:

    Firstly, according to CDLI search, there are 1002 texts related to Intaea with the verb idab, all but two of which are from Puzrish-Dagan; first, this text and second YRL SC 1813-Bx1-6 (which is uncertain!!). I think that both of them belong to the PD, too.
    Secondly, the month name Ezem-mah does not belong to the Umma Calendar, but to the Puzrish-Dagan calendar (as well as the Ur and Garshana calendars).
