Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to study the canal-work of the É-MÍ “Queen's House” according to the following points:<br>1) Who is the supervisor on canal-work?<br>2) Where are the locations of the canal-work?<br>3) What are kinds of the canal-work?<br>4) What sort of men are the workers of the canal-work?<br>The texts of the canal-work are roughly classified into three types: gíd-, dab5- and dù-type. The gíd “to measure” type texts may be written before working, for the purpose of measuring the points and sections where the canal-work must be done. The dù “to work” type texts may be written after working for certifying the completion of the canal-work. The dab5 “to assign” which seems to include or continue the gíd “to measure”, its type text is only one in the Lagaš materials.<br>As the agents of these verbs (gíd, dù and dab5) are, except the ruler himself in one text, all nu-bànda, the management of the canal-work of the É-MÍ is able to decided for one of the duties of nu-bànda.<br>In comparing the workers of the canal-work with the receivers of “še-ba lú-kur6-dab5-ba, ” it is clear that only lú-kur6-dab5-ba are engaged in the cana-work except two people (Ur-é-mùš, Lugalidigna).<br>The canal-work are done on many places, that is, e “canal”—the most times—, íd “river”, KU-KU “Staudamm”, nag-ku5 “reservoir” and ù-tir“?”.<br>It is kinds of the canal-work that is al-dù “to dig with hoe”, šu-luh-ak “to dredge, ” and zi-du “to provide a canal with weirs.” These works are unusual and are rare.<br>Basing upon an analysis DP641, the canal-work in general denotes “to weed in a canal” and “to elevate earth from a canal”, which repeats itself in every year for the purpose of maintaining the irrigation systems of the É-MÍ.
