For this week’s #historicalhappyhour we are going WAY back.  This is Neo-Sumerian cuneiform clay tablet from the 21st c. B.C.E.  It utilizes the Umma calendar, a city in modern day Iraq.  This tablet is actually serves to document the receipt of a delivery of beer.  Can you imagine your happy hour receipt this evening lasting another four thousand years?  #iglibraries #librariesofinstagram #cuneiform #beer #happyhour
