2. Old Babylonian Clay Foundation Cone Isin Dynasty, circa 1953 B.C., a dedication on a clay cone from the reign of King Ishme-Dagan of Isin.

This cone is handwritten with the text around the shaft of the cone in two columns of equal length, leaving the remainder of the cone blank. The text records the building of the wall of Isin by Ishme-Dagan, after exempting the citizens from taxes and freeing them from the corvee labor. 500/800 Sold: $460.00 |
