Jump to Unidentified 1001 Unidentified 1002
Parts of a bilingual Sumerian-Akkadian royal inscription written in Neo-Assyrian script are preserved on a tiny fragment of a clay tablet that is now stored in the Kuyunjik Collection of the British Museum. According to W.G. Lambert the text should be attributed either to a Kassite ruler or to a ruler of the Second Dynasty of Isin.

Three bronze daggers in the Foroughi Collection, with illegible texts on their obverses, have been tentatively dated by G. Dossin to the reign of Nebuchadnezzar I because the royal titulary preserved on their reverses ("king of Babylon, king of Sumer (and) Akkad") is identical with lines 3-4 of Nebuchadnezzar I 3 [/ribo/babylon2/corpus/] (likewise inscribed on the reverses of bronze daggers). However, J.A. Brinkman has pointed out that this royal titulary also occurs in inscriptions of Ninurta-nādin-šumi (1 [/ribo/babylon2/corpus/]), Enlil-nādin-apli (1 [/ribo/babylon2/corpus/]), and Marduk-nādin-aḫḫē (4 [/ribo/babylon2/corpus/]) and, thus, attribution is not certain.
