Cuneiform: translations and discussion
en
Cuneiform is a logo-syllabic script that was used to write many languages of the Ancient Near East (including Akkadian, Sumerian, Elamite, and others). The script was used actively from the early Bronze Age (~3000 BCE) until the beginning of the Common Era. It is named for the characteristic wedge-shaped impressions which form its signs. This subreddit is for all things cuneiform-related!
If posting a translation, or request for translation, it's helpful to begin the title with "TRANSLATION", and be as specific as possible regarding the context, etc.
