Weld-Blundell Prism
The Weld-Blundell Prism is a clay, cuneiform inscribed vertical prism housed in the Ashmolean Museum. The four sides, about 20 cm high and 9 cm wide, are inscribed in the Sumerian language with lists of Sumerian kings; each side contains the text in two columns: this is the famous Sumerian King List.
The list begins with the antediluvian rulers and ends with Sin-magir of the Isin dynasty. The list was most likely written in Sin-magir's final year, or soon after.
The museum number is AN1923.444.
