Dialogue document concerning a marriage agreement: A approaches fB and asks her to give her nubile (batultu) daughter fC into marriage with him. fB grants (šemû) the request and gives her daughter into marriage. fB voluntarily (ina hūd libbišu) gives (as a dowry), together with her daughter, 2 minas of white scrap silver (kaspu peṣû nuhhutu) and 245 square cubits (61.25 m2) of the south wing (bīt šūti) (of a building) adjoining the houses of D1 and D2 as well as clothes, containers and furniture. fB will give the rent (idū) for the harbour house (bīt kāri). Each party has taken a copy (gabarû). At the sealing (kanāku) were present 5 witnesses (including Nabû-ahhē-iddin/Nabû-šumu-ibni//Nanāhu and Bēl-aplu-iddin/Šadûnu//Ilî-bāni) and the scribe. The tablet (ṭuppu) dating from the 26th Arahsamna (VIII) Darius 28th year is broken (hepû)
