The cuneiform text, read from left to right, records not only the amount of silver invested in tin and textiles, but also the less commonly traded precious stone lapis lazuli, which was sourced from Afghanistan. In addition to investments in trade items, these shipments required various expenditures like clothing and wages for guides, as well as donkeys and their equipment and fodder. Donkeys became important trade items themselves and were often sold upon the caravan’s arrival in Anatolia after the arduous 6-8 week journey from Ashur. The tablet also records other fees, payments, and purchases, before calculating the total money owed to the prominent merchant Imdi-ilum who was active in the caravan trade between 1888 and 1876 B.C. Interestingly, the final balance recorded in the tablet, 1 mina and 50 shekels of silver, is slightly more than the actual total calculated from the figures provided (1 mina, 48 5/6 shekels). Such minor discrepancies are common in the Old Assyrian texts and several erasures on the text indicate the care with which the account was made.
Agriculture is when the human race irrevocably degenerated.
