• Resumen

  • This article deals with the organisation of pasture land in the Neo-Babylonian period. The main source for the study is the tablet BM 77507, published in AOAT 291, 247-258, which deals with the assignment of land to people who (using prosopographic criteria) can be identified withshepherds in service of the Ebabbar temple of Sippar during the first half of the reign of Nabopolassar (626-605 BC). The text al so helps to solve defining the term tamirtu, and provides with important geographical and topographical information about the north and east of Babylonia in Neo-Babylonian period.
