Description: Writing in clay addressed to the king of Egypt, c. 1350 B.C.E.
Letter of Pabi, Prince of Lachish, to Akhnaton, King of Kemet (i.e. Egypt), circa 1350 BCE. [Rogers Introduction]: This letter was found in the mound of Tell-el-Hesy (ancient Lachish) Clay 14, 1.i92, by F. I. Bliss, and awakened great interest because it obviously belongs to the same series as the Tell-el-Amarna letters and possesses the additional interest of having been actually discovered in the soil of Palestine. Published by Hilprecht, "Expedition of the University of Pennsylvania," vol. I; "Old Babylonian Inscriptions," part 2, Plate 64, No. 147. Translated by Winckler, "Keilinschriftliche Bibliothek," v, No. 219, and by Ungnad in Gressmann, "Altorientalische Texte und Bilder," i, pp. 127-128, and by Knudtzon, "Die El-Amarna Tafeln," No. 333.
