General Notes
I can't find record of the history of the object. Noting in ERC database. Nothing in TAD. TAD seems to have been the first to publish it. It may belong to the Sayce collection and therefore come from Elephantine.

Porten, Bezalel, and Ada Yardeni. Textbook of Aramaic Documents from Ancient Egypt. 4 vols. Jerusalem: Hebrew University, 1986.
