After looking through many hundreds of royal
inscriptions i decided to create my own royal inscription. It
says
Sheshki, Lugal of Kish, Lugal of Ur,
Lugal of Adab, strong Lugal, Son of Ebi (nickname
of my daddy)
(there are surely errors in it, i wrote for example
kalam-ga instead of kal-ga, but i was able to fix it...see next
page) |
