Dabitum

id: dabitum-203-5917446
title: Dabitum
text: Dabitum, also transliterated as Dabîtum or Dabītum, was a slave-girl who lived in Sippar during the Old Babylonian period. She is known today for her letter to her slave master concerning a miscarriage, both for the inherent tragedy of the letter and for its striking stylistic features. Her life is otherwise completely unknown; it is possible that she is the same person as another Dabitum who was a former slave in the reign of Hammurabi and is attested in legal documents from Sippar.
