Adad-narari I 10

(35) At that time, (as for) the wall of the New City, which faces the (Tigris) River, which is opposite the tisaru-district, which Puzur-Aššur (III), my ancestor, a king who came before me, had previously built, it was two and one half bricks thick and thirty layers of brick high, had become dilapidated, was in ruin, and eroded by flood(s). I cleared its site (and) reached its foundation pit. I made (it) the thickness of ten bricks using my large brick mold. I laid its foundations on solid bedrock. I built (it) from its foundations to its crenellations.

(44b) (As for) the sewers that drain off the water, I faced (them) using limestone, baked brick, and bitumen. Outwardly, on the side facing the (Tigris) river, I applied a facing of limestone, baked brick, and bitumen. Moreover, I deposited my monumental inscription (therein).

(50) In the future, may a future ruler, when that wall becomes old and dilapidated or eroded by flood, renovate its dilapidated section(s) (and) return my monumental inscription and my inscribed name to their (text “its”) places. The god Aššur will (then) listen to his prayers.

(87) Muḫur-ilāni, first day, eponymy of Ana-Aššur-qalla, the officer of the palace.
