Bir Kültepe Metninde Kaydedilen “Hurātum Rabiātum” ("Hurātum Rabiātum" in the Kültepe Text)
Journal Title: Archivum Anatolicum-Anadolu Arsivleri - Year 2016, Vol 10, Issue 2
Abstract
Contrary to weight measures, texts from Kültepe that mention linear measures are very few. Measures of length in the texts are generally used to indicate the dimensions of textile, and once for the length and width of a piece of timber or the length of a dining tray (paššuru). The brief text published here was unearthed at Kültepe in 1988 and refers to ammatu, one of the linear measures, to describe the length of a ladder and its nakbisu, to specify the number of the steps on that ladder. In the text, it is stated that the ladder should be long (about 6 meters) and have fifteen to sixteen steps.
