The following provides a listing of the various synonym, lexical and grammatical lists whose occurrences have yielded a name used in antiquity or significance has resulted in a designation in modern Assyriology, where the MSL (Materialem zum sumerischen Lexikon / Materials for the Sumerian Lexikon) or other references in square parentheses give the primary publication of the lexical texts, the synonym texts not qualifying for inclusion in this (MSL) series. This would also have included wax-covered writing boards, examples of which have regrettably not survived. The extant texts can be classified by typology as follows:

lists expounding homophony (multiple symbols, single sound) and polyvalency (single symbols, multiple meanings).acrographic sign lists, ordered by sign shape or orientation.complex or compound sign lists, name lists.Lexical lists fall within one or more of the following broad categories: Lexical list of synonyms 'explicit' Malku = šarru tablet 3, reverse Sumerian/ Akkadian. The first millennium BC represents a further expansion and refinement of the texts and the introduction of commentaries and synonym lists.

The works SIG 7+ ALAN (ulutim) = nabnītu and Erim-huš = anantu are thought to have been composed at this time. The Kassite or the Middle Babylonian period shows that scribal schools actively preserved the lexical traditions of the past and there is evidence of the canonization of some texts, such as izi = išātu and Ká-gal = abullu. Similarly, lists of complex signs and polyvalent symbols emerged to support a more nuanced scribal training. This era, the Old Babylonian period, saw the emergence of the UR 5-ra = hubullu themed list. The tradition continued until the end of the Ur III period, after which marked changes in the form of the texts took place. Later third millennium lists dating to around 2600 BC have been uncovered at Fara and Abū Ṣalābīkh, including the Fara God List, the earliest of this genre. The most notable text is LU A, a list of professions which would be reproduced for the next thousand years until the end of the Old Babylonian period virtually unchanged. The earliest lexical lists are the archaic (early third millennium BC) word lists uncovered in caches of business documents and which comprise lists of nouns, the absence of verbs being due to their sparse use in these records of commercial transactions.
