Abstract
1. About ten years ago Neugebauer and Sachs published their Mathematical Cuneiform Texts in which the contents of Plimpton 322 were analysed for the first time. The numerical values contained in this text are given in Table I. The theory put forward by Neugebauer and Sachs was in my view not consistent with known facts and in the Proceedings of the Academy at Amsterdam I put forward a different interpretation. Since then I have made several short comments in connection with this text, but up to the present I have not given an explicit interpretation of the errors occurring on Plimpton 322.
