The photograph shows what appear to be multiple views of the same small lenticular/oval tablet (a form common in Akkadian-period administrative records) plus a flat fragment labelled 'CFC 141' at bottom. The central face (obverse) shows clearly ruled horizontal lines with cuneiform wedges; individual signs are visible but the resolution and surface erosion make precise sign-by-sign confirmation difficult. The top portion of the obverse is the most legible: vertical and horizontal wedges consistent with number signs (the asz@c / lenticular 'one' sign) followed by groups of signs matching the personal names in the transliteration. The reverse/lower oval view appears largely uninscribed or too worn to read. The flat lower fragment (CFC 141 label) shows additional ruled lines with signs that are consistent with the summary lines 'gurum2-bi i3-ak' and the final count line, though individual wedges cannot be confirmed at this resolution. The transliteration is taken as the primary reading guide; the photo corroborates the general format (list of ones + summary) but cannot verify specific sign readings such as 'kal?-la?' or 'me-pa?-x', hence the low confidence. The 'gurum2-bi i3-ak' formula ('their account has been made/checked') is a standard Ur III / Akkadian administrative closing formula, lending credibility to the reading. The totals line '7(disz@t) mu 5(disz@t) iti' — 7 persons, 5 months — is a typical labor-account summary.
