Abstract

This article presents first editions of three large manuscripts of the Epic of Creation from the Sippar Library, and eight smaller fragments from the British Museum's Babylon and Sippar collections. In addition to restoring several lines of various episodes of the text, they provide an almost complete restoration of the two closing verses of the Babylonian version of the poem.
