Document Details : Title: An Assyrian Teacher at Ugarit? Subtitle: A New Reading of the Colophon of Šimâ Milka ('Hear the Advice') from the Maison aux Tablettes Author(s): COHEN, Yoram Journal: Bibliotheca Orientalis Volume: 74 Issue: 3-4 Date: 2017 Pages: 274-283 DOI: 10.2143/BIOR.74.3.3271965 Abstract : This article presents a new reading of the colophon of the wisdom composition named Šimâ Milka found at Ugarit. It argues that the teacher of the student who copied the manuscript was called Aššur-rēši-išši and that he was probably an Assyrian present at the city, active in the archive of the Maison aux Tablettes. Discussion will also be given to the student’s name and title as well as to the identity of the deity behind the logogram DPAP.PAP. |
