☞ In this paper, Archi focuses on the gifts delivered to court ladies on their marriages or funerary ceremonies. He considers eleven case studies: six marriages (those of i-ti-mu-ud, ti-a-i-šar, ri₂-i₃-du, ar-za-du, zu-ga-LUM) and four funerals (those of gi-mi-NI-za-du, da-ri-ib-da-mu, ti-iš-te-da-mu, du-si-gu₂). In addition, Archi also takes into consideration ti-ne-ib₂-du-rum’s consecration as priestess (DAM.DINGIR). After a detailed analysis of the gifts delivered on these occasions, Archi concludes that upon their deaths women received the same set of garments and jewels delivered to them on the occasion of their weddings. He further proceeds describing the full set of garments and jewels generally delivered to high ranking women upon these occasions. He then investigates the gifts generally brought by the deceased to their ancestors, and concludes with a few remarks on the wailing rite. A detailed index of the jewels considered in this study is included. Note that the following quoted documents have since been published: ARET XV 29 = TM.75.G.1567; MEE 7 29 = TM.75.G.1705; MEE 7 50 = TM.75.G.1781; MEE 10 20 = TM.75.G.1860; MEE 10 29 = TM.75.G.1918; ARET XV 47 = TM.75.G.2165; ARET XX 25 = TM.75.G.2334; MEE 12 35 = TM.75.G.2428; MEE 12 35 = TM.75.G.2508. Furthermore, ARET XII 874 = TM.75.G.5317 has been published as a fragment, but in this study is quoted as TM.75.G.1250+TM.75.G.5317.

☞ In this paper, Biga offers the edition of TM.75.G.1679: the document registers expenditures of gold, silver, and jewels (also decorated with precious stones) for ti-a-ba-zu₂’s marriage with ba-du-lum (Ibrium’s son). Biga then proceeds with discussing the identity of the event’s main protagonists and their namesakes. She offers some remarks on the jewels mentioned in the texts (ti-gi-na, e₂ wa 2 da-bi₂-tum, ḫa-za-nu), in particular the KA.KAK.BU necklace. In her concluding remarks, Biga also discusses the expression nig₂-a-de₃ i₃-giš a sag and its variants, a formula connected to the wedding ritual at Ebla.

☞ This volume continues the publication of fragmentary texts from the Central Archive L.2769. It collects documents corresponding to inventory numbers TM.75.G.4102-6050, excluding lexical lists and texts from other categories currently being prepared for separate editions. The transcriptions were completed by Mohammed Lahlouh (nos. 1-808) and Amalia Catagnoti (nos. 809-1417) after Lahlouh’s passing. The volume was edited by Catagnoti, who compiled the indexes, including a Glossary with interpretations, correspondences, and comparisons with other Semitic languages. Most of the texts are administrative, with exceptions including a chancery fragment (ARET XII 620, now part of ARET XVI 1 = TM.75.G.2411+), a joined literary text (ARET XII 1024 = TM.75.G.5511, which joins ARET V 6 = TM.75.G.2421), and a possible lexical fragment (ARET XII 1227 = TM.75.G.5817; on this latter fragment, see Bonechi, ’Miscellaneous Notes’ [2021], pp.43-44).

☞ This volume represents an expanded and revised version of Imad Samir’s doctoral thesis, originally published by Saarland University in 2001. Titled "Buchführung über Textilien: Kommentierte Erstbearbeitung einer Gruppe von Wirtschaftstexten aus dem Ebla-Archiv L.2769," the book focuses on twenty monthly accounts of textiles dated to the time of minister Ibrium. While most of these texts are published for the first time, some fragments had been previously featured in publications such as MEE 2, ARET III, and XII. The introduction provides an overview of different types of fabrics, clothing, recipients, and relevant administrative terminology. Additionally, an attempt is made to establish a relative dating of these texts through a prosopographical study of the names of family members of the ruler of Ebla and others, as well as through the analysis of certain graphic features.For a review of the book, see Pasquali, ’Comptabilisation des tissus’ (2020).
