Negotiating Marriage in Multicultural Babylonia: An Example from the Judean Community in Āl-Yāhūdu,
Abstract
This article looks at the Yahudu marriage contract that involves a Judean and a non-Judean party. It compares this document to other known Neo-Babylonian marriage contracts and finds that those contracts in which the man is of West-Semitic origin display more divergence from Neo-Babylonian standard practices. This may reflect different social norms in the various communities living together in Southern Babylonia in the Neo-Babylonain and Persian periods.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
