Abstract
The article presents an edition of a previously unpublished Old Babylonian tablet in the collection of the Kramer Institute of Assyriology of Bar Ilan University. The tablet contains three Sumerian compositions: Ninisina’s Journey to Nippur (Ninisina C), a hymn to Damu, and a hymn to An with wishes for Šu-ilišu (Šu-ilišu B). Besides the philological edition, the article deals with formal features on the tablet such as subscripts, as well as with the possible reason(s) for grouping the three compositions together on one tablet.
