History
In a house in Assur, between the southwest side of the Anu-Adad temple and the remains of the inner wall of Shalmaneser III, researchers found a small archive of 9 clay tablets and 6 clay envelopes in a clay pot (Room c in WHA). The archive dates the 8th and 7th centuries BC and mostly contain loan documents and receipts recording payments.
