Primary Sources
The Sumerian king list is drawn from a good many cuneiform sources,
from differing provenance and period often
in the secondary literature these are referred to in abbreviated (almost
cryptic) terminology for example "WB" -
this can make it hard to get a handle on the material. However, once
an explanation is found, these same abbeviations
appear more and more pragmatic. Hopefully the below will be of assistence
to some then.
- I have perused particularly the ETCSL translitation source guide here
- Special thanks especially to the CDLI
project as well, which makes so much accessable and understanble.
