-The corpus of Old Babylonian letters is comparatively dense, but a majority of the letters originating from Babylonia is easily accessible through the series //Altbabylonische Briefe// (//AbB//) introduced by Fritz R. Kraus. This series limits itself to editions of letter corpora and does usually not group them by their archival nature. The //AbB// volumes contain approximately 2,700 individual letters in cuneiform collections in Europe, the United States and the Middle East. To this already sizeable corpus the rich text finds from Mari on the Middle Euphrates and other sites in Syria need to be added. +More than five thousand Old Babylonian letters have been recovered.
