Description:
This digital collection highlights the social networks of the elites in the city of Babylon during the reign of Darius I (522–486 BCE). Elite families passed down their family archives from generation to generation, some of which are preserved today. These archives consist of texts (contracts and court documents) concerning their properties, including its acquisition, management and transfer (such as inheritance divisions, dowry and gifting). Created as part of the CollectionBuilder course at the Digital Humanities Summer Institute (DHSI).
