Excerpt from University of Pennsylvania, the University Museum Publications of the Babylonian Section, Vol. 4: Historical Texts In the spring of 1912, Dr. Poebel was granted permission to study the historical and grammatical texts in the Baby lonian collections in the University Museum, and was employed by the Museum during the summer of 1913 and during the winter of 1913 - 14 for the purpose of continuing these studies. During these two periods, Dr. Poebel was chie y engaged in copying historical and grammatical texts selected from a large number of tablets of all classes. It was Dr. Poebel's plan to publish simultaneously with his copies, complete translations of all of these7 texts. It was also a part of his plan to reconstruct, on the basis of the historical tablets, portions of the early his tory of Babylonia. Another task to which he set himself at the same time was the preparation of a treatise on Sumerian grammar based upon the grammatical tablets in the Museum's collection.
