A Prayer to Ea, Shamash, and Marduk
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 March 2011
Extract
The fragment K. 2784, published by Langdon in his OECT. vi, pi. xxii, belongs to the same tablet as K. 7593, which was edited by King, Babylonian Magic and Sorcery, No. 62. We now have, therefore, an almost complete text of the earlier part of a hymn to Ea, Shamash, and Marduk. I have to thank Dr. H. R. Hall and Mr. C. J. Gadd, of the British Museum, for permission to collate the reunited tablet, and Professor Langdon for his kindness in helping me with the interpretation of the text.
