Abstract


The two Neo-Sumerian texts from the British Museum published here have to be added to the dossier of Ur-Bau, a moneylender of unknown origin. In the first tablet a certain Šeškalla receives silver for one-month harvest work as well as barley on loan. In the second text, the same Šeškalla receives from Ur-Bau an amount of barley, in this case probably also on loan, at the unusually high value of 210 sìla for 1 shekel of silver, the usual value being 300 sìla for 1 shekel.
