Amarna letter EA 330, titled: "Dirt at the Feet of the King" is an ovate-(squarish)-shaped, small-sized letter, from the mayor/ruler of Lachish (Tel Lachish), of the mid 14th century BC Amarna letters. The Canaanite city-states were visited by the scribes, with short 'status reports' sent to the Pharaoh (King) reporting on city or regional accounts, for example the troubles with the habiru, or other external affairs. Many of the Canaanite letters are short, with some nearly identical phraseology of words, as well as the layout of the individual clay tablet letters.
