The notion of Mesopotamia's sexual freedom, I'amour libre, was anachronistically based on the 19th century version of it as an exclusively male Prostitutes Senden. Philologists and art historians read the unmarried women attested in cuneiform as prostitutes, sacred or secular.

This viewpoint was a product of several converging popular and academic streams. J Scholars of the late 19th and early 20th century shared an intellectual climate with artists and writers who depicted the "real" underbelly of their own urban life with its brothels and cabaret hookers, or the far-away exotic lands of the East with their harems and odalisques, supposedly corroborated by the accounts of travel writers. Aside from the avant-garde which was fast legitimating erotica as Prostitutes Senden worthwhile academic pursuit, a number of historical "authorities" unduly influenced scholars of the ancient Near East.

Chief among them was Herodotus whose famous account Prostitutes Senden the "foulest Babylonian custom" whereby every woman in Prostitutes Senden land must prostitute herself at least once in her life in service to the temple of Aphrodite Her I The deviancy of Mcsopotamian sexual activity seemed confirmed by the Old Testament writers who accused idolaters of harlotry and adultery.

Activities that were not ideologically in step with systems of belief put forth by Old Testament writers were denigrated and sexualized so that apostasy was described as prostitution or adultery see for instance, Lev In some cases, Yahweh himself is Prostitutes Senden husband and the unfaithful whore is Jerusalem, Judah or Israel see for instance, Isa 1.

Further note that the translation of " common prostitute," "whore" Prostitutes Senden "harlot" for the Hebrew word zonah has recently been questioned by H. Philologists understood the biblical invectives to reflect historical realities, and translations of certain Hebrew words for women such as "whore," "harlot" or "temple prostitute" remained unchallenged until recently. At the same time, the new discipline of anthropology began to emerge from the "myth and ritual schools" of Western Europe, initiated by the Semitist, William Robertson Smith in the 's and 90's and later popularized by Prostitutes Senden rcknowncd successor, Sir James George Frazer.

Many have challenged the validity of Hcrodotus's account and traced its impact on later literature from Hebrew writers down Prostitutes Senden Frazcr and beyond. They have generally dismissed his account as early Greek propaganda.

Fisher establishes that Herodotus was provincial and "staunchly pre-Hellenie," and therefore treated other cultures with condescension, a Prostitutes Senden which has been widely accepted. He also notes that Hcrodotus's eye-witness account is anachronistic and "too lurid and almost too detailed to be convincing" He presses a point made Prostitutes Senden Amaud that if sacred prositution was religious law enjoying a central place in cult practice, the abundant laws, temple administration records and documents of temple personnel would have made it fairly explicit, which is far from the case ibid.

When a woman, Prostitutes Senden in Sumcrian also mi or munus or iinnLUu in Akkadian, came of age in Mesopotamia, there were two routes she could take; she could cither marry and become the "wife of a man.

The recurrent tendency to sexual izc Prostitutes Senden single women of the ancient Near East is one reason scholars have overlooked this extraordinarily important group. Another reason the phenomenon has hitherto escaped detection is because the patriarchal system scholars developed and imposed on the study of ancient Mesopotamia had no room for such a legal category.

This construct they drew from the later and quite foreign monotheistic culture of 5th century BCE Palestine, at least Prostitutes Senden early Hebrew writers wished Prostitutes Senden present their social order.

Scholars have also derived a nearly identical matrix from their understanding of the even later monotheisitic cultures of the Arab world.

This version of patriarchy presumedly originated in ancient Mcsopotamian, brought to the west in its purest state by Abraham of Ur.

In fact, the actual patriarchy of Mesopotamia was far less monolithic and far more mutable than the scholastic rendition has allowed. For one, Mesopotamian patriarchy had to reconcile with the extremely antique and intrusive tradition of the kar.

However, the term continues to be translated as "prostitute. In English, the ugly connotations of "spinster" can hardly apply to the likes of the harimtu's Prostitutes Senden or lshtar.

In other languages, the very Prostitutes Senden "woman" also means "wife," eliminating the single female as a viable route in life altogether.

Diakonoffwho did recognize groups of women as "not under patriarchal authority," presents however an outstandingly sexualized view Prostitutes Senden them. Prostitute or Single Prostitutes Senden This sexual theme is absent in non-literary texts.

She became the one who knew so Prostitutes Senden about sex, the Prostitutes Senden or concern of women, 15 such as the me of "the kissing of the phallus. Thus, judicial or economic documents which mention the kar. Thus, by circular reasoning, the social institution with which she was primarily associated, the tavern, was conflated with the brothel and the female tavern keeper with the brothel madam. Thus, other female categories such as that of the kczcrtu or the qadistu became tainted solely by their proximity to hcr's in lexical lists and other texts, further obscuring our view of ancient society and sustaining the erroneous idea of sacred prostitution.

This Prostitutes Senden is a preliminary attempt to reinterpret the kar. Let us begin with a brief look at the terms and their etymology. The Sumerian ideogram "kar" has several meanings. That one of them is "quay" 17 " The idea that sexual knowledge belonged to the female domain is expressed in a num- ber of cuneiform passages.

In an Assyrian royal correspondence: "Old men dance, young men sing, women Prostitutes Senden maidens gladly perform the task of womanhood and enjoy intercourse" Lambert Sex as the "task of womanhood" is also in Prostitutes Senden Gilgamesh Epic I iv 13 and Presumably she predates this period. Assantc JUF. V has led some scholars to read the Sumcrian term as "she who works the quay.

Another meaning for kar is "the status of a person without a family," " and is, quite in contrast to the first, attested again and again. Documents on the kar. This term is followed by three types of kar. In fact, the Su- merian term, kar. That the goddess was portrayed in these two aspects, the bride and the kat.

Civil f. A girl is "made" harimiitu, ha-ri-mu-ta ip-pwus-si, i. This might account for the Sumcrian ak, "to make," in such constructions as kar-ak, "made" kar, that is made the status of a kar.

It is not too difficult to sec the connection between one with a status without a family, the Prostitutes Senden. Both terms convey a subtext of standing outside of or separate from societal norms, that is, the patriarchaliy controlled household.

Moreover, within this legal description, the kar. The harmu There is a masculine form of harimtu, the word harmu, signifying an unmarried male. There is no Sumerian equivalent. It appears in a few incipits of love songs possibly from the time of Tiglath-Pileser I, in a poem of potentially MB date Black and in a few SB texts.

It has been translated as " Prostitutes Senden lover" but never "male prostitute" Prostitutes Senden it occurs. It usually refers to Dumuzi Tammuz as the harmu of Ishtar. The incipits of what might have been secular ballads and the poem seem to use imagery that shares substantial similarities Prostitutes Senden that of the Sumerian Inanna-Dumuzi courtship literature.

It is easy to see why Dumuzi is called Ishtar's Prostitutes Senden for these works, like the earlier Sumerian hymns, concentrate on that period before the lovers marry. In the contexts of the ritual: atti Istar sa harmasa Dumuzi, "You, Ishtar, whose harmu is Dumuzi," which should be " Between ki. Prostitutes Senden the etymology of 'hrm is standard although some cognates differ on the quality of the initial h, either h or h. My thanks to Prof. Randall Garr for pointing this out to me.

Assante UF 30 performed in the month when "Ishtar made the people of the land wail over her Prostitutes Senden, Dumuzi," 26 it is less clear why this terminology of harmu instead of "spouse" Prostitutes Senden employed. The reason must be Prostitutes Senden the death of an unmarried man is more poignant than the death of a man who has experienced marriage and left progeny. In some versions of the laments that Prostitutes Senden survived, the dead Dumuzi is described as: "my one who will never bring betrothal gifts].

Another mention of Dumuzi as Ishtar's harmu occurs in GE VI : "for Dumuzi, the harmu of your youth, you decreed an annual wailing. Neither Ishtar nor Tiamat were portrayed as wives, unlike almost all other goddesses in the Mesopotamian pantheon, although in some minor or local traditions they could be.

Both goddesses were problems in the later works of GE and Enuma elis which had strong patriarchal agendas. In the latter, Tiamat, the female creator deity, is viewed as corroding social order; she is destroyed and supplanted by the young, victorious warrior god Marduk who by slaying her rises to the top of the pantheon.

In the standard version Prostitutes Senden GE, Gilgamcsh derides Ishtar as a persistent fornicator. In the love literature, however, the patriarchal agenda is absent and the term harmu is not pejorative. The sexualization of the term is a by-product of its context only. The epithet is as neutral as the others used for Dumuzi: "shepherd," "king," "lord" and so on, that take on sexual casts when issued from the mouth of his beloved.

The term harmu has not been attested from non-literary documents as far as I know, so that it in no way establishes an accepted socio-lcgal category for men; it was not officially recognized. In literature, Prostitutes Senden male's unmarried status seems only to have been employed when he is in a relationship with an unmarried female, consummated or not.

M The term harmu in reference to the goddesses Ishtar and Tiamat may refer to an early system whereby males acquired status according to the females with whom they coupled. There are other hints.

In this case, and possibly as the Prostitutes Senden of a sacred marriage ritual, he is not a harmu but the husband, again claiming a title of favor in terms of the female's socio-legal position. Certainly the whole notion of some ancient transference of power to the male via the female is embedded in The Lord ofAratta and the creation story entitled The Theogony of Dunnu.

Sarah Winter for bringing my attention to this second myth. The kar. However, wc will sec that harimtu status also applies to a girl who had once dwelt in the ancestral home but then left it for reasons that arc as yet obscure. From other types of documents such as adoption contracts, Prostitutes Senden may infer that there were girls who were raised to become harimtu's and were therefore not brought up to become good wives.

Prostitutes Senden any case, there is some evidence that Mcsopotamians themselves viewed any girl brought Prostitutes Senden without a father figures as woefully lacking the proper attitudes of obedience, submission and respect toward males, the very virtues required of the ideal wife in the "Counsels of Wisdom". In these contracts, it is stated that the adoptive mother can Prostitutes Senden off her adoptive daughter in the future or make her into a harimtu.

Scholars have universally interpreted these two choices for the adopted girl as either marriage or prostitution. Therefore, the aim of the adoption, according to previous scholarship, would be the Prostitutes Senden mother's income, especially in old age, from her daughter's prostitution. A review Prostitutes Senden these adoption contracts will demonstrate that this interpretation which has everywhere been taken as fact is erroneous, while revealing some important defining features of this legal category.

An OB text tells of an adopted girl who will become a harimtu and care for her adoptive mother: fPN, kar-kid al-du-du!

The literal translation of the second phrase is "she will feed her adoptive mother bread," which suggests a kind of hands-on caring that is physical as well as financial. Only the un- married kar. A married woman was normally removed from her mother's house to live in Prostitutes Senden husband's house.

Also, the income of a married M Lambertand see below. It is not clear what an adoptive mother could rightfully expect in terms of financial compensation from her daughter's husband. One may speculate that the adoptive mother was not often eligible to receive Prostitutes Senden said bride price cither because she could not provide a dowry or because the bride price customarily went to male kin.

It seems likely, then, that an adoptive mother had more to gain if she kept her Prostitutes Senden in harimiiti rather than marrying her off.

In a later MB text from Nippur, " a woman adopted the daughter dumu- munus of PN, from her father for five gold shekels. She was not allowed to turn her into a Prostitutes Senden.

M The three options open to a MB girl of poor status arc outlined in this contract and they are all legal categories: wife of a man, single woman or slave, like the OB adopted girl from the contract above, this MB female was Prostitutes Senden by a woman who is not described as "wife of PN," meaning the adoptive mother is likely to be living on her own.

With no male blood relative as her legal guardian and no longer a resident in the male ancestral home, the girl has no status in a patriarchal system; her father literally sold it off.

Significantly, the father raised no official objections to his daughter marrying or staying single but he would not allow Prostitutes Senden to enter the slave class. It is difficult to understand this proviso to mean that the father was not concerned if his daughter was forced into a lifetime of prostitution but would object if his daughter Prostitutes Senden a slave. Adoption documents from Nuzi provide examples similar to the Prostitutes Senden one above but with a slightly different twist.

He extends this premise to include men: "If a woman could use an adopted daughter like this, obviously men have the same rights over daughters and wives. For this and other reasons, she might have been of royal blood. In most texts she is named by her matronymic as the daughter of Sheltunnaya, who may have been a princess. MIN Following witnesses and seals Document of daughtership of Shi-damqat, Prostitutes Senden of Habil-damqu: Hanatum, son of Prostitutes Senden, gave himself and his sister into daughtership Prostitutes Senden Tulpunnaya, daughter of Erw[i-shar]ri.

Tulpunnaya will give Shi-damqat into wifehood. If Tulpunnaya is so inclined, she may give her to a slave, and if she is so inclined, she may give her to a taluhlu; furthermore, if Tulpunnaya wants, she may make Shi-damqat a harimtu. As long as Tulpunnaya is alive she Prostitutes Senden feed her. If ten of her husbands have died, in that case to a eleventh she Prostitutes Senden give her into wifehood.

If Shi-damqat should break the agreement and leave the house of Tulpunnaya, she will pay two minas of gold to Tulpunnaya. Prostitutes Senden if Shi-damqat, his sister, should cause Prostitutes Senden to leave the house of Tulpunnaya — same condition. In this contract, the adoptive mother agrees to care for her adopted daughter as long as she lives, contrary to the notion that these adoptive mothers lived Prostitutes Senden the incomes of their daughters.

As in the Nippur document, there are again these two options, marriage Prostitutes Senden harimutu, that is, marriage or remaining single without patriarchal status. It must be stressed that neither this nor the Nippur document her simply by her matronymic alone, as was Prostitutes Senden always her practice, may be describing an overall independent status given to women of royal rank.

If this is Prostitutes Senden case, Tulpunnaya's status sheds light on that problematic area of the lexical list malku - sarru that groups the kar. Assanlc UF V defines the adoptive mother's legal right to force her daughter into prostitution. M One may reasonably hypothesize that a woman — especially if living alone either as a widow or a spinster — might want to adopt a female to provide nursing, housekeeping and potentially added income.

Customs of keeping a girl at home, even Prostitutes Senden own blood daughter, to care for others arc hardly unusual. NB texts record iastanccs of daughters taking care of Prostitutes Senden fathers in old age and inheriting on their deaths Greenfield The texts do not reveal what means Prostitutes Senden daughters took to support their parents nor what marital statuses they held; presumably they were single.

Nevertheless, the implication from these late texts Prostitutes Senden that they lived with their fathers and were therefore legally daughters of a man. Just as it is clear from laws and contracts that parents usually decide when and whom their children should marry, adoption documents like those above indicate that it was the adoptive mother who determines whether a girl will marry or not.

From the evidence, adoption with the potential option of becoming a harimtu seemed only to occur between Prostitutes Senden adoptive mother and an adopted daughter. If a girl were adopted by a man, by definition she would not be a harimtu but the daughter of a man.

A few examples from Nuzi Saporcttiin which a female was adopted by a man bear out this claim. In one instance, the man is Prostitutes Senden to marry his adapted daughter to a slave, his own son or someone socially elevated; significantly there is no option of making her into a harimtu.

The same holds true for another case KAJ Prostitutes Senden where the adoptive father promises not to mistreat or rape his adoptive daughter but to Find her a husband. Here, since the girl Prostitutes Senden herself in the adoption proceedings, one may infer that she had no male relative to represent her, and that she was fairly mature. This particular female may even have been a harimtu before adoption. Yet, her adoption into a male household prevents her legal designation as harimtu class.

By comparing girls adopted by women and girls adopted by men, it becomes clear that the adoptive daughter can only become a harimtu if she is adopted by a woman. That there is no mention of husbands in the contracts of adoptive mothers is almost sure to mean that these women were not under 37 Contrary to those who interpret the harimtu of these adoption contracts Prostitutes Senden prostitutes, see for Nuzi, Pfeiffer and Speiser If.

For Nippur, see E Stone and D. Some OB women who adopted girls later married and brought these girls into their husbands' households, but the status of their daughters under these new conditions is Prostitutes Senden. However, it seems that even then, the adoptive girl does not become the daughter of a man Wcstbrook f.

To summarize, making an adoptive daughter into a harimtu refers to class and not to the profession of prostitution for why would only adoptive mothers give over their daughters to this trade but not adoptive fathers? This reasoning is confirmed by the three choices presented for girls in some of these contracts: marriage, slavery or harimutu.

Set together it is obvious that they arc three broad class categories that define the potential legal standing available to a mature Mesopotamian female when she no longer lives with her father. Prostitutes Senden harimtu and her Biological Parents Just as an adopted daughter can live with her adoptive mother and be a harimtu, a female can live with her biological mother and be a harimtu.

Perhaps the Prostitutes Senden status determines why. In the following texts, there are three instances in which a harimtu is living with her biological mother who seems to have been either widowed or abandoned by her husband.

Note Prostitutes Senden CAD Hb offers a very flawed translation and interpretation. I received her silver from her husband. The daughter of Turpunna, Eluanza, lives as a harimtu. And now I have given Eluanza to my daughlcr- in-Iaw, Matka-shar. And now to Matka-shar I have given it. Matka-shar, according to the other tablet, shall give it to their sons.

To a stranger she shall not give it. Prostitutes Senden rest of the silver for Kanzu which belongs to Matka-shar, I have given. We are then told directly that Turpunna's daughter, Eluanza, is a harimtu or fatherless. The sequence is about legal status of both the mother and the daughter. How Eluanza came to be fatherless was either well known by the courts, unimportant, or Prostitutes Senden in the phrase. Presumably her mother was widowed, as G.

Wilhelm suggests. However, her mother would not be an almattu for she lives under the authority of her own mother, Arinduri. Arinduri transfers her granddaughter to 40 Prostitutes Senden woman whose husband has died will be labelled an almattu only if she has no one in authority over her, male or female; an almattu is either the head of a household which can even include adult sons or she is under no one's authority because she is utterly homeless Roth In addition, as in western Akkadian, ana is sometimes interchangeable with ina.

It seems that her son is dead as well. Matka-shar, who is also under Arinduri's authority, will give the harimtu away in marriage and receive the bride price that will financially support her. This crafty measure allows the bride price to stay within Arinduri's family.

If the bride price had gone instead to the harimtu's mother, Turpunna, her dead husband's male kin, Prostitutes Senden she had any, would no Prostitutes Senden have claimed it and the silver would have transferred outside Arinduri's family.

K It is further possible that Turpunna was ineligible to receive the bride price because she was not an almattu-iypc widow but a dependent Arinduri also transfers her own dowry, a field, to Matka-shar with the proviso that Matka-shar cannot alienate the property. It is to be inhcritated by the eventual children of the granddaughter instead.

This also Prostitutes Senden the field out of reach of the male kin of Arinduri's dead son-in-law. She is also made eligible for a good marriage with a dowry that can command a good bride price. That these maneuvers were engineered solely by women, primarily by the harimtu's maternal grandmother, and especially that all the bride price silver is split only among women strongly indicate that there were no men left in Arinduri's household.

Overall, the contract seems to be driven by the need to keep the estate out of the hands of the harimtu's father's family, which leaves us wondering what security was provided for the harimtu's mother. The bride prices of two girls, Eluanza, the harimtu, and a second female already married, Kanzu, arc used either by the grandmother or her son's daughter or both.

So all three Prostitutes Senden of Prostitutes Senden were taken care of at once. The Prostitutes Senden this family without men made to insure the future of its members is an example of mutual support among females. However, this document raises questions as to what generation a family without male heads is classed harimutu. It often transferred to the bride's family from the groom's family after the marriage was Prostitutes Senden or after the first Prostitutes Senden was born Grosz and n.

Prostitutes Senden instance, the zeal with which brothers acted to keep the estate within their family reaches a horrifying pinnacle in a will E. Lacheman "Tablets from Arraphe and Nuzi in the Iraq Museum," Sumer Text 2 in which a man's Prostitutes Senden were given the right to kill his widow if she tried to remarry. Grosz 19S7b postulates that if a man died with no sons, his daughters could inherit Prostitutes Senden if they were invested with the status of sons.

If the father did not do so, his brothers would take over. Clearly, the harimtu Prostitutes Senden text HSS 5 11 was not adopted as a son but was transferred to her maternal uncle's line instead. Because Arinduri was given the power as head of household by her husband before Prostitutes Senden died, she was legally enabled to direct the estate as she wished and thwart any claims made Prostitutes Senden the family of her dead son-in-law.

If Turpunna was divorced rather than widowed, it is likely her cx-husband would have contested this contract. Whatever the actual situation might have been, it is inconceivable that the grandmother would record for posterity that her granddaughter is a prostitute in the very same document Prostitutes Senden legitimates her granddaughters marriagability.

A fragmentary and so far untranslated text from Nuzi of a court case JEN 44 flcetingly mentions a harimtu daughter whose name Prostitutes Senden not given and her biological mother, Tabinitu. Apparently, Tabinitu has accused a man, Tampatiya, of bringing stolen meat of a suckling pig to her house. She further relates that her Prostitutes Senden, who she tells the judges is a harimtu, only took the meat into her house after it was brought by Tampatiya: DUMU.

Mf-ri ha ri ma ai it ku-ur-ku-za-an-nu I na-Si-ma it i-na km. MEs ui-tc-ri-ib. In other words, she is defending her daughter by saying that the harimtu had nothing to do with the theft of the pork.

In the context of this cross-examination, announcing that her daughter is a prostitute would not only be gratuitous but also counterproductive as in the previous text. This document, like the former, raises questions about how a girl becomes Prostitutes Senden harimtu. In this case, the Prostitutes Senden was, at least at Prostitutes Senden time, married to Prostitutes Senden aSsabu named Nashwe.

This Nashwe was not present at court, which suggests that the Prostitutes Senden was either widowed or abandoned, reinforced by the mother's statement that her daughter is a harimtu, Prostitutes Senden a signal of some meaning to the law keepers of Nuzi.

We do not Prostitutes Senden if the daughter is living with her. Nor docs it state that the mother's husband was the father of her daughter; if he was not, clearly the mature daughter is a harimtu, unless Nashwe adopts her.

This last possibility would Prostitutes Senden expand the population of harimtu's in Mesopotamia. And if the harimtu is dead, because? J the brothers of Prostitutes Senden mother? It was also discussed in a Brandeis U. In all cases, the daughter was understood to be a prostitute. It is clear only that the Prostitutes Senden or fathers of these children was no longer alive and an estate is about to be divided up among the brothers and their uncles on their mother's side.

However, it seems that such a division will occur if and when the "the harimtu is dead," which suggests that she is a mature woman.

Unfortunately, it is not clear whether the harimtu and her brothers shared the same father. This is the only indication so far that a harimtu could inherit by state law. The biological father of a daughter could also turn Prostitutes Senden daughter into a Prostitutes Senden but only if he expells her from his house or lets her leave unbetrothed. The Nippur adoption contract cited above specifies that a father can give up his daughter and that in the absence of his patronymic she Prostitutes Senden become a harimtu if she does not marry.

In other words, he did not throw her out, he sold her out. Two other texts relate the conversion to harimutu Prostitutes Senden on the basis of the girl leaving the patriarchal household; no other conditions are mentioned. Neither is an actual instance but both are portrayed as orchestrated by unseen forces. The first example to be addressed is a late NA Tell Halaf inscription. The father will abandon his daughters, meaning they leave his house or he disowns them; this designates them as harimtu's.

The reference to Ishtar might be read on more than one level. Conceivably, the girls could have been dedicated to temple prostitution, but as its existence is not attested in cuneiform, such Prostitutes Senden interpretation seems far fetched and in fact, besides the point. A simpler and less strained reading of the phrase is that the father left his daughters stranded, without a patronymic or promise of betrothal.

Abandoning them specifically to Ishtar, whether figuratively or literally, would have been logical given she was the only goddess in the pantheon who was also a harimtu. If the phrase means that his daughters are literally given Prostitutes Senden her temple, conditions for the disowned in temples could be quite harsh.

Destroying ones sons and turning one's daughters into harimtu's effectively end the Prostitutes Senden house Prostitutes Senden neither dead sons nor estranged harimtu daughters could produce legal heirs to carry Prostitutes Senden his line.

With this curse elegantly structured Prostitutes Senden two parallel 44 From Prostitutes Senden. Also note that B. Menzel stresses the foreignness of this text and further assumes that it indicates a negative view toward the harimtu in the NA period Menzel See also, Wilhelm f. Gelb remarks that the donation of rejected women and children to Ur III temples was similar to the exposure of infants who were left to die "The Arua Institution," RA 66, f.

He will become the picture of the living dead, just as Tammuz is the emblem of physical death.

Assantc UF 30 and finite reversals of normal paternal behavior, there Is one result — the future of the man's house is annihilated, Prostitutes Senden him and his ancestral name lost to posterity.

A warning in another NA document echoes the same notion. Here, the harimtu is again the foe to man's posterity for she interrupts or ends male lineage. In the inscription, the emblem of posterity is not a man's Prostitutes Senden and grandsons, but his stele. The line is bitterly sarcastic: "This is the stele which the kar.

Prostitutes Senden this case, it is the daughter of the quintessential father and patriarch, the king, who goes out of the palace ana harimuti. The only texts that mention a daughter leaving her father ana harimuii frame the abnormal event as the result of curses or bad omens. Certainly, the occasion of Prostitutes Senden daughter's departure from her father's house must have been prompted by less dramatic reasons, either at the request of the girl or the father.

The paucity of records of girls leaving their fathers might be the result of a number of things. Prostitutes Senden, such a situation went contrary to patriarchal ideals and is likely to have been officially ignored by state law writers. Furthermore, most records of girls and their fathers concern her marriage, with occasional references to inheritance rights and her sexual activity Prostitutes Senden she is transferred to her husband's house; a harimtu fell outside this discourse.

Lastly, the harimtu's low status left Prostitutes Senden largely unrepre- sented in the judicial and economic spheres; her actions in general arc rarely documented. There is one remaining text about girls leaving their biological parents ana harimuti These are the children of palace servants mentioned in a royal proclamation from Nuzi AASOR 16 51 that was to be read every three or four years to the slaves and domestics of the palace.

These servants were reminded that they could not Prostitutes Senden their daughters leave the palace to go live in a state of impoverishment and in the state of harimutu ana ekuti u ana harimuti without the king's permission, implying that the king carries some continued obligation towards females who had once lived under his roof.

Besides the obvious difference in the two readings there is a subtle one at work. Although it is possible that u can mean "or," as they have it, rather than "and," as I have it, it seems more likely that the two expressions are parallel like states rather than alternative states. In addition "or" is normally rendered lu This proclamation suggests that the daughter of a servant Prostitutes Senden slave, like the king's daughter above, becomes a harimtu once she Prostitutes Senden the palace household if some prior arrangement has not been made, such as a proper home to go to or a man to marry.

This defining act helps to gauge the girl's age when harimtu status is acquired: she must be old enough to leave the palace on her own. By comparing what little we have on harimtu's and their biological parents a few features come into focus. First, a female living with her mother can still be a harimtu while one living with her father cannot. It seems that in all cases where a harimtu's mother is mentioned, the mother's husband is either absent or she is not referred to as the wife of a raPN; either can indicate that she docs not live with her husband.

This is true for the adoptive mother as well. However, whether this alone is enough to assign her daughter to harimutu or if there are other factors in the mother's status at Prostitutes Senden that effect her daughter's is still not clear.

What circumstances caused a mother's status to drop and what the nature of her lowered status might be are stubbornly opaque and understudied topics in themselves. Certainly widowhood status is variable. If a widow had no sons, she frequently ran the risk of being evicted by her husband's male kin Roth 93 ; her daughters are therefore likely to become harimtu's. Was harimtu status mediated by the absence of brothers or half-brothers of the same biological father?

We have seen one Nuzi text HSS 5 11 in which the mother of a harimtu was probably a widow of the non-almattu sort, suggesting that a non- almattu widow at least would have a harimtu daughter. But was the mature daughter of a widow who was head of her own house also a harimtu!

In the case of the OB divorced mother, normally her daughters and sons remain in the custody of her husband if their divorce was the result of her culpability Westbrookin which case the girl will never become a harimtu. But if the woman is divorced for no blame on her part and takes her children with her when she leaves her husband, what is the status of her girl child at maturity? We cannot now determine whether a daughter Prostitutes Senden up to be a harimtu if her biological parents are not officially wed, nor whether Mesopotamians recognized common-law marriage in all places and periods.

Likewise, the Prostitutes Senden of a child whom the mother brings into a marriage resists category and instead, questions abound: would such a child remain the daughter of her biological father or does her mother's husband adopt her or is she considered a foster-child? What the girl's status becomes when she moves into the house of her stepfather is hard to say for she is not named as his daughter. Prostitutes Senden so, Prostitutes Senden her adoptive mother divorce, she remains with the ex- husband.

Conversely, should the husband divorce the Prostitutes Senden mother, "she will 52 See Wilhelm n. In general, one thing is certain, a girl who is no longer living within the male ancestral home will become a harimtu at a certain age if she remains single.

However, even this rule should be applied with caution for its various components are not always consistent. For iastancc, the definition of the male ancestral home could be negotiated as it was by the widows and mature orphaned daughters Prostitutes Senden Emar and Ekalte. When these women look on the double titles of "father and mother of the house," their domiciles Prostitutes Senden on the official status of the male ancestral home; their daughters or sisters presumably forego harimtu status.

M Even if a systematic picture of how a harimtu comes to be should one day be constructed, it would not necessarily apply Prostitutes Senden all periods and places. The silence in Prostitutes Senden Mcsopotamian records with regard to harimtu's Prostitutes Senden their fathers presumes no legal connection between the two.

In general, it seems fair to say that Mcsopotamian writers of law and literature denied the shamefully unspeakable instances in which a daughter left her father or, for that matter, a wife her husband, Prostitutes Senden by ignoring them.

Laws, lexical lists, economic documents, court Prostitutes Senden, popular sayings and hymnal works describe her as the single woman in contrast to "the wife of a man. In the ideal world of literature, the distinctions arc also well maintained. The two legal categories are mutually exclusive. Maintaining the distinction between them preoccupied laws and judicial documents, though these texts are rarely as Prostitutes Senden as the adoption contracts that project only a theoretical future.

The legal material, with which I begin this Prostitutes Senden, apparently attempts Prostitutes Senden prevent the slippage that can occur between these two categories. It belongs mostly to later periods, especially from the Nuzi archives and the Middle Assyrian Prostitutes Senden MALwhen the harimtu is legally better documented and more emphatically distinguished from women with status 54 Similar provisions occurred at Nuzi. Women were thus enabled to Prostitutes Senden business and preserve important patriarchal rights.

Orphaned daughters Prostitutes Senden were legally made into sons ana mari epesu would not only avoid harimtu status but also establish their inheritance rights. For Emar and Ekalte see Th. For Nuzi and Emar, see Grosz b. The first surviving state record in which the adult kar. It comes from the Laws of Lipit-Ishtar ca. In the former instance, he might well lose his life. It Prostitutes Senden not imply that marriage to a kar.

Westenholz, working with Akkadian texts, remarks on this meaning of the street in reference to the qadiitu: "The street where she is located is a legal definition of her status of not belonging to an organized household" Westenholz See CAD S;f.

Roth uses "prostitute" for kar. The phrase I have translated as "has entered into a relationship" was taken by Roth to mean "had sexual relations. Certainly a sexual relationship is indicated. This is a strong prohibition against the wandering Prostitutes Senden attention of husbands.

The second woman is not legally defined a harimtu or as a "daughter of a man" in this case, but only as someone whom the man loves; presumably she could come from any social sector.

In addition, there is no indication that the man and his beloved had premarital sex. See Westbrook ff. Stolwho took the kar. Leaving one's wife for such a lady and marrying her was considered immoral. With the Prostitutes Senden of a Prostitutes Senden, the only factor that clearly distinguishes the two is residence. The wife is not penalized fot her sterility and her status as well as residence stay intact.

It is difficult to believe that the kar. But in this particular law, the child is not only accepted but made heir to his father's estate, a very serious undertaking in ancient Mesopotamia and one that would not have been legally mandated if the man's legitimate Prostitutes Senden had provided heirs. Prostitutes Senden though the kar. Like the above provisions, other laws and juridical documents also witness the tenuousness of women's legal Prostitutes Senden.

Most of these texts take care to legally Prostitutes Senden those periods in which a woman's status is changing and in which she is consequently the most vulnerable. Laws and private documents of marriage or rate. What has been overlooked here is the issue of the infertility of the man's first- ranking wife whom the law seeks to protect. In most later periods, divorcing her was a fairly simple matter, or the man could take a second wife. In short, infertile women were not well protected in later periods.

Second, the law specifies kar. Similarly, law makers would not frame a legal situation whereby a married man conducts a long term affair with a man's daughter. No doubt, a good patriarchal father would throw his daughter out for trafficking with a married man. She would then become a harimtu. Each of these transi- tions involves shifts in legal status, finance and usually residence.

Other areas of great legal concern arc the abandoned wife and the adulteress. The status of the adulterous Prostitutes Senden depends on her husband's Prostitutes Senden. He can divorce her, abandon her, corporally punish her but keep her as Prostitutes Senden wife or have her killed.

In each of the above-mentioned transitions, a female is most Prostitutes Senden to losing her status in regard to a male and his household. Some of the early Laws of Eshnunna henceforth LE; ca. Clearly the Prostitutes Senden definition of the female in the above two laws has shifted Prostitutes Senden daughter of a man to some ambiguous status not spelled out in the texts.

The only term that fits such a description is the harimtu. There are no technical terms for the female in an inchoate Prostitutes Senden as there are in Hebrew and Hittite Westbrook and n. M Roth A ii A similar invalidation NG occurs in the earlier Ur HI period where a would-be bride divorced without receiving divorce money.

The marriage was not recognized because the boy's parents did not consent to it. Presumably the boy was too young to legally represent Prostitutes Senden.

See Greengus f. The girl would not be a kar. M This law seems to require a written contract, but Greengus argues against such an interpretation of riksatum. In his article on OB marriage contracts he claimed that it need not denote a written document 30 J. In two instances, the men orally Prostitutes Senden the status of wife for women with whom they cohabit by calling them harimtu's.

In JENa difficult and broken Prostitutes Senden of a court procedure, the man states: "She is not a wife; she is a harimtu. I did not marry her. A Prostitutes Senden, Mushtcya, tries to win a court case establishing his legitimacy as the son of a certain deceased man named Tarmiya.

Tarmiya's brother comes forth and states that his brother never married Mushtcya's mother, but that she was a harimtu. Moreover, the brother was able to produce witnesses of the declaration made by the alleged husband when he was alive: "She is not a wife, she is a harimtu,"67 stating in this simple phrase that there was no formal marriage agreement between them.

The Prostitutes Senden husband disclaimed his legal connection to Mushtcya's mother and therefore any legal obligation to the son.

In this case, the son was unwilling to Prostitutes Senden through the "divine ordeal" to establish the truth of his claim that his mother was legally married.

The deceased man's brother won the case. Although the document does not address the deceased man's estate, whatever he had at the time of his death would now go to his brothers who, as we have seen, were particularly fierce in regard to claiming the estates of their deceased brothers. This is a far Prostitutes Senden from the laws of Lipit-Ishtar of years before when the kar. Furthermore, if her marriage were not Prostitutes Senden recognized Prostitutes Senden the end, Prostitutes Senden would not be entitled to a settlement for the dissolution of her relationship with the alleged husband.

It is not difficult to imagine how alarming such slander could be to a Mesopotamian woman. These lines are followed by two difficult Human expressions in the negative with the possible meaning Prostitutes Senden "she has not born me a child. Lewy, Or 10, n. Also note that the CAD H quotation on p. See Grosz a and Wilhelm where the text is discussed, harimtu is always translated Prostitutes Senden "prostitute," as Prostitutes Senden CAD Hb. Lambert assumed in his translation that the alleged kar.

Furthermore, the specific identification of the maligned woman as a "daughter of a man" indicates that the Prostitutes Senden was about her orignal status before marriage. It seems quite obvious that the woman was accused of being a kar.

Sexual slander is specific and clear. In both cases, the slandered woman's social status is not in doubt, only her alleged promiscuity, so that the term harimtu does not apply. A man might divorce a wife so accused because he feared he was not the first to have sex with her.

All the above instances demonstrate how permeable the boundary was between women with married status and those without it. The Nuzi documents tell us that a woman who was not formally married but lived with a man was still considered a harimtu, although common-law marriage must have been recognized in some local customs.

The Middle Assyrian Laws go much further than any other type of document to keep these legal boundaries by physically 70 Lambertalso Glassner and others.

The law docs not state whether the slave girl is married or not. As far as I know, there arc no records of a slave marrying an awtlu and remaining a slave; she would become the wife of a man. In a document contemporary to MAL, just such a situation was recorded: "he cleared her from Prostitutes Senden status as slave girl and gave her the 73 Prostitutes Senden veiling for women is so poorly attested, it is assumed that Mcsopotamian women generally went bare-headed except for this period, if these laws do in fact reflect an actuality see below.

See J. This is further evidenced by the concubine escriu in this MAL provision who held an ambivalent status — not Prostitutes Senden wife of a man, but if in public with the wife of the man they shared, she borrowed, as it were, the wife's status and went veiled. The text further implies that if she went alone, her head would be left bare indicating Prostitutes Senden she had no legal awilu status of her own.

Here a man must follow a specific procedure to legalize his relationship with his concubine, symbolized by the Prostitutes Senden of veiling itself. Prostitutes Senden one cannot deduce from this law alone the extent to which the unmarried qadiltu, the concubine and the slave girl were regarded as harimtu class, a few things can be learned. As we have already seen, the status of harimtu was mediated not just by marital status but by affiliation with one's male ancestral home, normally of Prostitutes Senden father.

Similarly, the status of the concubine seems to be quasi-official like the OB Sugftu. This is sufficiently Prostitutes Senden from a mistress and seems to confer some sort of recognized status with regard to the male household. The only two female types remaining from this law are the harimtu and the slave who arc sure Prostitutes Senden to have awilu status, and it is only these two who are severely punished for taking on the veil in public.

Both classes might have swelled as a result of warfare. War may have killed off more men, leaving daughters without fathers or prospective husbands. Foreign captives would have added to the female slave stock. The considerable amount of coercion needed to maintain the ideal patriarchal order suggests a real social need.

The severe punishment doled out to men who did not report unmarried veiled women indicates that the law was hard to enforce if it was enforcedperhaps because it was new. It seems that married women and daughters of awilu's could chose whether they went in public veiled or not, for there is no stated penalty if they went unveiled. Apparently, misrepresenting one's class downwardly was not an offense.

What was an offense was claiming membership in the awilu class, and it Prostitutes Senden the awilu men themselves, not their women, who were bound by law to keep its precepts.
