On two tablets from kamid el-Loz

The article discusses two broken tablets from the Egyptian centre of Kumidi. Tablet KL 78:200 is a school text in which the signs are listed in a non-regular order. Eight letters dispatched to Kumidi have been discovered so far indicating that professional scribes capable of reading and writing in Akkadian lived there. Tablet KL 78:200 shows that Akkadian was not only written, but also learned in the place. The second fragmentary tablet was probably sent by Aziru ofAmurru to the governor of Kumidi demonstrating the city's central role in the Egyptian system of government after Aziru has conquered the Egyptian centres of Sumur and Ullasa in the late Amarna period.
