A cylinder fragment in the British Museum preserves part of an Akkadian inscription that may be assigned to Esarhaddon. The inscription appears to commemorate work on the temple of the goddess Gula at Borsippa and to mention the king's victorious campaign against the Chaldean tribe of Bīt-Dakkūri and its leader Šamaš-ibni. This text is commonly referred to as Borsippa A (Brs. A).
