About the Book

English summary: The more than 900 clay tablets and fragments, which were unearthed in an excavation conducted by the German Oriental Society (Deutschen Orient-Gesellschaft/DOG) in 1902/3 in Tell Fara/Shuruppak in southern Iraq, are counted as one of the most important body of cuneiform texts because of their number and considerable age (many dating back to the 26th century B.C.E.) as well as constituting some of the earliest economic and "literary" texts, because of their lexical lists, of their kind. The texts from the DOG-excavation, which are now located in the Archeological Museum in Istanbul (Istanbul Arkeoloji Muzeleri) and in the Near Eastern Museum in Berlin, have never been completely published. Because scholars were not yet acquainted with the early script, the first publication by A. Deimel (1922, 1923, 1924) and R. Jestin (1937, 1957) was incomplete and unreliable in many respects. More recent works proceeded largely without close inspection and without thorough knowledge of the complete corpus and are therefore in need of revision. The volume is the beginning to an extensive (new-) edition of the Tell Fara-texts located in Istanbul and Berlin. The authors have, in a painstaking, multi-year project, collated, photographed, and (newly) autographed the texts. Using information he discovered in an old inventory catalog in 2005, Manfred Krebernik had been able to bring the number of identified Tell Fara texts from the Istanbul collection to around 600 tablets, some of which were thought to have been lost until now. With 170 texts concerning the management of livestock, this type of economic activity is largest group of economic texts. They deal with cattle, donkeys, sheep, goats, and wagons. All of the texts are presented with transliteration and photographs or autographs in addition to the most important metadata, such as (measurements, discovery site, notes of the structure and contents) and are provided with complete indices. German description: Die uber 900 Tontafeln und -fragmente, die eine Grabung der Deutschen Orient-Gesellschaft (DOG) 1902/3 in Fara/suruppak (Sud-Irak) zutage forderte, zahlen aufgrund ihres Umfangs und hohen Alters (uberwiegend 26. Jahrhundert v.Chr.) sowie der erstmalig neben Wirtschaftstexten und lexikalischen Listen vertretenen "literarischen" Gattungen zu den bedeutendsten keilschriftlichen Textcorpora. Die Texte der DOG-Grabung, die sich in den Archaologischen Museen zu Istanbul (Istanbul Arkeoloji Muzeleri) und im Vorderasiatischen Museum Berlin befinden, sind bis heute nicht vollstandig publiziert. Da man mit der fruhen Schriftstufe noch nicht vertraut war, sind die Erstpublikationen von A. Deimel (1922, 1923, 1924) und R. Jestin (1937, 1957) in vielen Details unvollkommen und unzuverlassig. Jungere Arbeiten entstanden weitgehend ohne Autopsie und ohne Kenntnis des vollstandigen Materials und sind daher ebenfalls revisionsbedurftig. Dieser Band bildet den Auftakt zu einer umfassenden (Neu-)Edition der in Istanbul und Berlin befindlichen Fara-Texte. Die Autoren haben die Texte in jahrelanger, muhevoller Arbeit kollationiert, fotografiert und (neu) autografiert. Nach der Identifizierung eines alten Inventarbuchs durch M. Krebernik im Jahre 2005 konnten ca. 600 Tafeln des Istanbuler Bestandes die bislang verlorenen Fundangaben zugewiesen werden. Mit 170 Texten zur Viehverwaltung enthalt der Band die grosste Gruppe der Wirtschaftstexte; sie betreffen Rinder, Esel, Schafe, Ziegen und Fuhrwerke. Alle Texte werden in Transliteration, Fotografie und/oder Autografie nebst den wichtigsten Metadaten (Masse, Fundstelle, Angaben zu Struktur und Inhalt) prasentiert und durch vollstandige Indizes erschlossen.
