The Mesopotamian ice trade ๐ง๐จ๏ธ
This letter was sent to our favourite good-for-nothing, Yasmaแธซ-Addรป, by the vassal king of Carchemish.
It shows us that the practice of harvesting ice and exporting it goes back to as early as the 1750s BCE! (1/6)
โClothes make the awฤซlumโ
In Old Babylonian schools, if you didnโt wear the newest Pradaโข robes but instead clothes hand-made by your mum, you were considered to be less loved by her.
โฆ or so argued this spoiled son of a high official. Here is the letter of Iddin-Sรฎn to Zinรป!
@IrisKamil@lautgesetz This line of the lament for ๐๐๐ reminded me of the rebranding in general and of this tweet in particular:

It must be noted that a cuneiform input methodยน has been available for Mac OS X since 2011. However, it uses an old version of what is now the OGSL, and has some limitations: ASCII fallbacks, confusing candidate numbering, etc.; see its README. These are solved in ๐๐จ๐ ๐ธ.
today I got lucky and saw something rare: the hand-operated antique drawbridge was opened so an antique boat could leave the special dock reserved for museum piece boats
One of my favourite features in Akkadian is that sometimes(!) the adverbial marker -iลก can be used like the English -ish.
abru "brushwood pile" -> abriลก "like a brushwood pile", or in other words: brushwood pileish ๐
@ZachMRubin@IrisKamil I am confused by those ED IIIb attestations in https://t.co/UTItvLG0o4; the one ๐๐ is from a composite whose witnesses both seem to be OB, and the rest are spelled ๐๐, in one case in ๐๐โ๐๐ https://t.co/PTMTCc3Wiy; why are the ๐๐ not https://t.co/D8zlD8zyKm?
@AANDeloucas@cwjones89 I suspect part of the mastodon flop may have been people failing to find each other: for instance of the 7 assyriologists I follow there, it appears that you follow two.
Iโm not sure how that could be facilitated, regardless of the platform.
