4,000 years ago, a wife in #Assur and her husband in #Anatolia had a fight about fabric quality. Every reply took six weeks to arrive by #donkey.
Lamassi wove textiles at home and shipped them 1,000 kilometers to her husband Pushu-ken, who sold them in #Kanesh. When he wrote complaining about her fabric, she fired back, demanding to know who in his house dared criticize her work, and reminding him she did her best.
Then her retort was loaded onto a #donkey caravan and walked across mountains for a month and a half.
A full exchange of grievances took three months minimum. Say what you will about #ancient marriage, they were committed to the argument.
