23. Diary No. -567 (568 BCE)
The Diary begins in Year 37 of Nebukadnezar, Month 1, the 1st day which authors Sachs & Hunger identify as -567, Apr 22/23. The tablet has 19 lines on one side (Obv), 21 on the other (Rev), and a few more along the edges. Much of the text is lost. Only a section of the tablet survives and some of the inscriptions have deteriorated. Still, the tablet logs more than 40 readable astronomical observations.
