| Riepilogo: | In Alalaḫ – modern Tell Atchana – four marriage contracts were found in the archaeological level IV (15 th century b. C.). Since these documents were published in 1953, several works have focused on them. Some of these studies have provided a better understanding of AlT 92. However, several problems remain with regard to the precise interpretation of it. The purpose of this work is to clarify some of the aspects of this document by using parallels from other marriage contracts of Late Bronze Age Syria (Emar, Ekalte and Ugarit). A brief survey of the other marriage contracts from Alalaḫ IV (AlT 91, AlT 93 and AlT 94) is also provided. |
