The main group of tablets from the archive consisted of about 200 letters and administrative records, which directly concern the queen.
[1] The letters tell us that Queen Iltani worked hard at running the palace industries, in particular the textiles and food, and had to meet her husband’s frequent, urgent demands for goods and personnel.
Iltani’s work as overseer of the textile business in the palace of Rimah is well documented in the archive.
Iltani was also involved in the metal trade; she personally received copper from her male subordinate[who?].
Iltani, the naditu sister of King Hammurabi, made offerings of date cakes at festivals.
