The texts have, so far as possible, been grouped according to their nature and contents, though it was thought desirable not to follow this arrangement with the case tablets No 2 to 31, but to keep these together. As may be seen from the catalogue and translations, twenty of them refer to grain transactions, two to sheep and one each to'' cattle, oil, wool, bread, pitch, pottery, employment of men and contracts for loans of money and grain.
