From the earliest days of Assyriology, the neo-Assyrian deeds bearing Aramaic annotations have attracted interest for the light they throw on both of the languages involved. Since L. Delaporte compiled his Epigraphes araméens in 1912, containing thirty such texts, no more have been published. The same collection contains four pieces wholly in Aramaic and to these can be added the six from Assur published by M. Lidzbarski, Altaramäische Urkunden aus Assur (WVDOG 38), 1921, and five from Tell Halaf, published by J. Friedrich in Die Inschriften von Tell Halaf (AfO Beiheft 6 (1940)). An examination of the script of these epigraphs has been made by S. J. Liebermann, BASOR 192 (1968), 25–31. All of these texts, together with the dockets of the neo-Babylonian and Persian periods, have been collected in catalogue form recently by F. Vattioni, Augustinianum 10 (1970), 493–532. The purpose of the present paper is to make some more of these texts available.
