Sumerian Records from Drehem (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Sumerian Records From Drehem

Special attention has been given herein to the detailed study of the peculiar jargon in which these ancient business records were written. Moreover each tablet has been illustrated, trans literated, and translated, in full; so that the entire process of decipherment may be followed out step for step. So although these thirty tablets do not contain much material that is entirely new, it is hoped that the method of handling may be of interest to the student of this class of literature.
