Crafts in the Early Isin Period
A Study of the Isin Craft Archive from the Reigns of Isbi-Erra and Su-Ilisu
by M. Van de Mieroop
La presente synthese porte sur 920 tablettes qui forment un ensemble tout a fait unique dans la documentation cuneiforme. Couvrant une periode de 33 ans, elles datent du tout debut de l’histoire politique d’Isin (regnes d’Isbi-Erra et de Su-ilisi), en un temps ou ce royaume se situe encore dans la droite ligne de la tradition d’Ur. Elles documentent l’activite d’un atelier, l’auteur montrant de facon convaincante qu’il faut comprendre gis-kin-ti comme signifiant un lieu et non pas la fonction d’artisan. Quatre branches d’activites artisanales etaient representees au sein de cet atelier: le travail du bois, du roseau et du textile. Les tablettes mettent en valeur les differentes etapes du travail, autour desquelles l’auteur construit son etude, qu’il complete par l’analyse de plusieurs titres et fonctions. Cette synthese sur l’activite des artisans d’Isin exploite d’une maniere exhaustive un exceptionnel lot d’archives.
