T.E. Balke examines orthography and semantics of the Sumerian case system based mainly on Pre-Sargonic administrative documents and royal inscriptions written at times when Sumerian still was a spoken language. An overview of the case system is followed by chapters devoted to the locative, the comitative, ablative, dative, directive, and terminative and the history of the case system.
