Palazzo Te
Mantova, Italy

One of the seven small wooden boards of the collection. The cuneiform writing on it is a list of several vases, offered, during ceremonies, to the goddess Ninissina, “Lady of Isin”, one of the main divinities of the Sumerian city-state of Isin, in southern Mesopotamia. Also inscribed on the board is the name of the year the list refers to.
