[Journal Article] The Business of Mr. Ninurta-zākir-šumi: Activities of an Official Within the Kassite Administration
This paper examines the life and administrative role of Ninurta-zākir-šumi during the Middle Kassite period, using newly discovered tablets to provide a more detailed picture of his activities in the Nippur region. By reconstructing his family lineage, the paper also connects him to the influential House of Enlil-kidinnī. This research contributes to a deeper understanding of his role in managing resources in the Nippur countryside.

[Short Note] Addenda et corrigenda to “Studies in Eblaite Prosopography:” the dumu-nita en
The Great Archive L.2769 contains a significant number of documents that make repeated mentions of the sons of the Eblaite kings, referred to as ‘dumu-nita en’. This note aims to review and update the information available pertaining to the royal sons.
[Short Note] Kings’ Ladies at Ebla’s Court
The ‘dam en list’ refers to sections of administrative tablets that mention female members of the Ebla royal family. Since Tonietti’s study in 1989, three new complete lists of dam en have been published, with additional fragmentary lists discovered later. In this note, I provide an updated index of the dam en lists and offer some general remarks.
