M726 The weaving accounts
786 These have been discussed by Dr. R. Zehnpfund, B. A. S., i., pp.
492-536. He has striven to identify the garments as far as possible;
but when we recall that over eighty such garments are named in these
lists, most of which are merely names, with no indication of their
uses, it is clear that a translation is generally out of the
question. We know something of their material and often of their
color, but nothing further. It is curious that in many cases these
names are the same for Assyrian and later Babylonian times.
