Abstract
The clay tablet shown on the cover was excavated in Iraq at the ancient Sumerian site Nippur in 1950. This 35-line tablet, along with eight others unearthed in the vicinity, form an extremely interesting 109-line document which we are privileged to reveal as the world´s first technical report! The tablet was inscribed about 1700 B. C.
