[1] U.7033-U.7064 were duplicated with the duplicates assigned to tablets from Season 5. They were originally part of U.7839, a large group of tablets found in Area SM (Jacobsen AJA 57:128). They were later given individual numbers that were believed to fall between Seasons 4 and 5, but ended up duplicating numbers assigned to objects from Season 4. The duplicates have been given the subletter A (or additional subletter where multiple objects were indicated on the original card) in this database while the original object from the catalog card retains the number without subletter (or the original subletters assigned on the card).

	Ur	When Woolley lists context only as 'Ur' on his object catalog cards he tends to mean that it was found somewhere within the confines of the city wall but no more specific than that. These are often surface finds that Woolley felt did not require more specific find spot information. Those found outside the city walls were typically recorded as 'brought in' followed by the name of the broad region from which they were brought in by the workers.	(none)
