Abstract
Chiera and Speiser, the inaugurators of Nuzi studies, observed that the duration of the Nuzi period was one which marked the era of the rise and development of the famous landholding family so well known to Nuzi scholars. The progenitors of this family were Puiji-enni and his wife Winnirke; and its most famous member was the great capitalist Tehip-tilla. The family tree of this local economic dynasty may be reconstructed in the following manner from published Nuzi texts.2
