Note 121 — Chapter V · BABYLONIA AND PALESTINE
Reading edition
A cadastral survey, which was drawn up at this period under Uru-malik, or Urimelech, “the governor of the land of the Amorites,” would, if perfect, have given us an interesting description of Syria and Palestine in the third millennium before our era; see Thureau Dangin in the Revue Sémitigue, Avril 1897.
