East India House Inscription
The East India House Inscription is an important foundation tablet from ancient Babylon. Since 1938, it has been a major artifact in the British Museum's Middle East collection.〔British Museum Collection ()〕
==Description==
Royal inscriptions like the East India House Inscription were intended for public display or burial in the foundations of buildings. Unlike most cuneiform writing that was made in clay, foundation tablets like this were carved in stone and were more carefully articulated, the scribes clearly taking pride in the beauty and clarity of their engraving. This text was probably originally buried in the foundations of one of King Nebuchadnezzar's numerous constructions in Babylon between 604 and 562 BC. The dimensions of the tablet measure 56.5cm by 50.2 cm, with a thickness of 9.52cm.
