We will endeavor to post a complete and proofread version of this translation within a week. We are consulting with Khazeh Fananapazir, the translator, about it now.

Mehdi, the editor of the provisional translations page, answered my query about this matter as follows:

The Tablet that you mention is indeed an authentic translation that Khazeh posted to the lists in April of last year. However, Evenson has only posted the last short paragraph of the text, and, to my mind, he has misinterpreted the citation.

I have not even formatted this text yet, since it was only a small fraction of the full Tablet itself, and I do not have some information about it. The file that I have does not list the name of the Tablet, the recipient, the period or date. Further, I cannot find any mention of the text in the Leiden List. However, I will write to Khazeh and ask him to provide what information he can about this Tablet. I will then make ready to post it. Hopefully, this will likely take a few days to complete.
