FOREWORD

The

valuable

materials which

Professor Chiera is

making

accessible to

scholars for the first time in

this volume

of

cuneiform tablets

from

the Nippur

School

need

no

introduction.

The

careful accuracy

which

characterizes

his

copies

of

such

materials has already

become well

known

to orientalists

through

his

earlier publications

of

cuneiform sources.

In this first

volume of cuneiform records

published

by the

Oriental

Insti-

tute,

the editor

is

glad

to

announce

that

the range of the Institute s

publica-

tions is

being

expanded

to

include such

important

classes of documents as

the

series

here published, even

though

the

originals may

not

belong

to the collec-

tions of the

Institute. This policy

is further

evidenced

by

the coming publica-

tion of

the Egyptian

Coffin

Texts,

although the

vast majority

of

such

texts

are

to

be

found

in foreign

museums.

The

interest

which

the Institute has

felt in advancing our knowledge

of

the history of Western

Asia is evident in

the progress of

its

effort to produce

a dictionary

of

Assyrian

(better

called Akkadian),

based for

the first time on

all

the

known

cuneiform records

in that

ancient Semitic

tongue.

In

further

response

to

this

interest, the Institute

is now beginning

the

publication

of a

series

of

cuneiform

original

texts in

this instance,

Sumerian ,

to take a

place

side

by

side

with

its

series

of

English

translations

of

cuneiform originals,

that

is,

the

Ancient

ecords of Assyria

and

Babylonia of which two

volumes

are

already

in

print.

The editor

would

take this opportunity

to

express his

appreciation

of the

attitude

adopted by the University

Museum

of the University

of

Pennsylvania,

in

permitting

the Oriental

Institute

to publish these

valuable cuneiform

rec-

ords.

It

is

to be hoped that

this

instalment of

such student lists

will

soon make

it

possible

for

some cuneiform

scholar

to restore in

its entirety

the encyclopedic

summary

of

Sumerian

scribal learning,

of which

this

new

volume

contributes

such

an

important

part.

PREF E

All the tablets here published form

part of the Nippur

collections now in

the

University Museum of the

University of Pennsylvania.

Work

on

this volume

was

begun

many

years ago-as

far back as

1913. But the gathering

of the

material

was necessarily slow

since new texts

found

from

time to time necessi-

tated constant

changes

especially

substitutions

of

better written

and more

complete

tablets

for

others

which were less reliable

and in

a

more

fragmentary

condition.

About five years ago the

pressure of new

work made me

turn

my attention

to

other

fields and this book was

left lying in

its

present

form.

I

am now very

grateful to the

Publication Committee of the

University of

Pennsylvania

Muse-

um for

permission to include the

volume among the

Oriental Institute Publi-

cations

of

the University of

Chicago.

When the

work was

first

planned I had

intended to publish these texts in

exactly the

same

way

in which

I published

the Lists

o PersonalNames

but

it soon appeared

that this

would involve such

an immense expense of time

as

to

make

it

impossible for

me

to attend to

the publication of

hundreds of equally

important

texts especially those

dealing with Sumerian

religion.

I have there-

fore

abandoned

the

more ambitious

project and with

this

volume

I am giving

to scholars

as

faithful

copies of the original

tablets as

I

could

make.

Besides

the

usual description

of

the

tablets

and a

list of the duplicates

which

have

not been thought

worthy of publication I have

included a list of parallel

texts.

This

has been kindly

prepared for me

by Mr. Thorkild Jacobsen of

the Oriental

Institute and he is entirely

responsible for his work.

The pur-

pose of this

list of

parallel

texts is to enable scholars to find

out at

a glance

whether in this same

volume are

to

be

found

tablets

which

give

a parallel

text

to any

tablet

here published.

No references

are given

outside

of the

present

work.

It

is

my pleasant

duty to thank here first

of all the Publication Committee

of the

University

of Pennsylvania

Museum

for having permitted

the

publi-

cation

of this work.

My gratitude goes also to

Professor

James H. Breasted

the

director

of

the Oriental

Institute

for

having accepted the

volume

fo r

its series. I

must also

thank

Mr. Thorkild Jacobsen

for having prepared

the

list

of

parallel

texts

and

having offered

to correct the proofs.

Finally I

must

See

INTRODUCTION

With

very few exceptions, all the tablets here

published

form

part of the

material from

the Temple School of Nippur.

This type of texts has already

been described by

me

in the Introduction to the

Lists

of Personal

Names

from

the

Temple

School of Nippur.

In fact the Lists of

Personal

Names

are, in a

certain

sense,

a by-product

of

this

work.

They

have been published

apart be-

cause

it

soon

appeared

that

the

material

was

too

abundant

for

a

single

volume.

Everything that

has

been said

in that Introduction applies also

to the

tablets here published,

and stands to this

day with but a

single change.

The

expression Nidaba-zag-sal op. cit., p.

19) is not

a

colophon. It occurs again

in

some

of our tablets, and

it

marks

either the

end

of

a text No. 15 and

No.

122)

or the end of a special

topic

No. 194, top of Col. I .

The

same expression

occurs also in

religious

texts,

though in

stories

dealing

with

creation

or

early

myths the

god

Enki

is

substituted

for Nidaba, and in

hymns or epic writings

the

name

of the god to whom

the

hymns are dedicated

or

whose

exploits are

recounted

is often

mentioned.

Real

colophons

are

never

found in school

texts. No. 121 has a

note to the effect that

it is

the

fifth tablet

of a series

called Nergal ...

The tablet belongs to

the Kassite period but

has been published

here

because of

its

special importance. No.

42 is a school

text

in

the

sense

that it

was copied

by

students

for

practice in

writing,

but

in

contents it

is probably part

of

an account. It has been

included here because

of its very special

character

and of the important

words it

contains.

The

tablets

here published

contain, in general,

lists of objects

of the

most

varied character. Especially

important are

the

names

of gods

and those

of

cities and countries.

While

the

names

included in these

lists

are in

part already

known from

literature, still

many of them

are

entirely

new

and as

such form a

very definite

addition to our knowledge

of

Sumerian.

Moreover

the

names

are

grouped

in these

lists

according to some

definite principle. So

it

happens

that,

if we know

the

meaning of some

words in a list

we have

also

very good

ground

for

interpreting

those which

are entirely new.

In geographical

lists the position of

the

names

is

of

the utmost importance.

Much can be built, for

our

knowledge of Sumerian

theology on

the

grouping of

the names

of

gods.

Of

special

importance in

this

respect

is No. 122, Col. VII.

The scribe

had

already

written down all the names

of gods preceded

by the

University

of

Pennsylvania:

The University

Museum,

Publications of the abylonian Section,

Vol. XI No. 1 1916). Vol.

XI, Nos. 2 and

3, appeared in 1916 and 1919,

respectively.

SUMERIAN

LEXICAL

TEXTS

determinative.

In

this

last

column

he

lists

the

foreign gods

without

determina-

tive.

Among these foreigners

we

find

the

well-known Ea and

Ishtar.

Another

great advantage of

these

lists is that the writer

attempted to make

them exhaustive.

Every group of names be it

of stones fields

or officials is

complete perhaps

too complete.

In some instances the

list

comes

to resemble

some of

the modern student exercises

the

chief

aim of which is

to

compose as

many sentences as possible

with

any

given

noun.

On this compare especially

Nos. 9 obv.

and 190 obv.

But

in general pupils had no

interest

in

the

subject

matter

of their

exercises

and many

a time

abandoned

one subject for another.

Thus

in No. 170 Col. V

the

apprentice

scribe after beginning

to

copy a list

of

different kinds

of doors

changed his mind

and divided

the column into

two for a

bilingual list.

This

is

abandoned immediately

after

the first

word.

Compare also No. 244 rev.

More common is a

difference

in contents between

the

obverse and reverse

of

the

same tablet.

Thus the

obverse of No. 112 contains a list of personal

names that of

No.

189 has part of

a

hymn

No.

241 lists

verbal

forms and No.

225

gives sample

contracts.

Notwithstanding all

this

from

a close study of these school exercises

we

can

reconstruct

with

a

good deal of accuracy

the

original document from

which

all

these tablets

have

been derived. A

careful

comparison

of

the texts

containing

the same subject

matter

has been made and all duplicates

weeded

out. These

are

simply referred

to by

catalogue

numbers in the

list of

duplicates

on

pp.

14-16.

Only texts needed

for

the reconstruction

of

the original have been

copied and

published

here. But even the published texts vary a

good

deal

in value.

Some

are the

work

of

pupils whose

knowledge of

writing was very

limited

and

con-

sequently

are

full

of

scribal errors. No.

128

which

the

scribe

did

not

even

care

to

complete is especially

faulty

in this respect.

But

even these unreliable texts

are useful

in that they

give

us

the

sequence; and their

mistakes

are

corrected

by parallel

texts

better

written

and more

free from errors.

In the nature

of the case I have

not

tried

to point out mistakes in the copies.

This work will

have

to

be done by the scholars who will

use the

texts. I

need

only

say that while copying the tablets had before me

a complete list

of

all

the variants. If

errors or omissions

occur

in

some

copies

these

are

found in

the

tablets themselves.

In

this volume

we have sufficient

material for the

reconstruction

of at

least

two-thirds of the original document

in

the

portion containing lists

of

objects.

The

very

beginning

of that document

has been left

out.

The University

Muse-

um of the University of Pennsylvania

possesses a very large

number

of tablets

which would

permit

the

reconstruction

of

that

part

also

and

it

is

to

be

hoped

that some

scholar will undertake

the work of editing

them.

INTRODUCTION

In

this

volume

we

have

some

texts

which will

help

to form an idea

of

the

contents

of

the missing

portions.

Compare Nos. 243

and 248. Especially in

teresting

is No.

243

because

it contains

the simpler

word-formations:

a-ba

a-ba-ba

ba-a

ba-ba-a ba-za ba-za-za which

are followed by

their

Akkadian

equivalents. Unilingual

texts of the

same type

are Nos.

7 rev. 206

and

238.

The last question

which needs to

detain

us a

little is

the

relation

of the

tablets here published

to the

original

from which they are

derived. Some of

the

tablets are

undoubtedly

copied

directly from

the

original.

But

in

others

occur

some phonetic

variants which could

have originated only

if the

text

had been

dictated.

In

other instances the omissions

additions and

variants

are too

im-

portant even for dictation. Such

modifications occur

especially in

the vast

amount

of

religious

texts

which

originated in temple schools.

The simplest

ex-

planation

for these changes is that

the

pupils made

up

their texts from memory.

Be

this

as

it

may

the original

document from

which these

tablets

have

been

derived was

so

highly

considered

by the ancient Sumerians that

copies of

it are

to be found

in

all

schools by the side

of

standard

works

on religion and gram-

mar.

When

the

present

tablets were

written that is

about

2000

B.c.

this

standard

glossary was already

being

translated into

Akkadian

as

the bilinguals

here published testify.

And even in

late Assyrian

times the scribes of Ashur-

banipal

made a

round of the old

temples to copy

it

for the

royal library.

It

will

be found that

some

of these tablets

are duplicates of tablets

found

in the

library

of Ashurbanipal.

With

time and work

tablets coming

not

only

from Nippur

but from Sippar

Larsa Umma

and

probably

many other cities

will permit us to

reconstruct

in

its entirety

the

standard work

of Sumerian

lexicographers.
