Κατάλογος[]
Δυναστεία Α'[]
Πρότυπο:Rulers /Babylonia
(Αμορριτική) (1894 - 1595)
Kings (Βασιλείς)
- Sumu-abum, son of, Σάμωβος, 1894 - 1881
He was an Amorite Sheikh who seized the town and declared its independence. He began his reign with the construction of a great city wall, which was still unfinished upon his death
- Sumu-lael, son of, Σαμόλαος, 1880 - 1845
The oldest mention of Marduk in a royal inscription is from the 21styear of his reign. He sacked Kish
- Sabium, son of, Σάβιος, 1844 - 1831
He defeated and killed Silli-Adad of Larsa in battle.
- Apil-Sin, son of, Απλισίνης, 1830 - 1813
- Sin-muballit, son of, Σινομύβαλλος , 1812 - 1793
- Rim-Sin of Larsa defeated him in battle. - During his reign, the city controlled a region running for 60 miles along the Euphrates. He was the last king of the dynasty to have an Akkadian name
- Hammu-rapi , (or Hmmu-rabi), son of, Χαμμύραβις, 1792 - 1750
Upon ascension he controlled only a small area-Babylon, Sippar and the region around them. He spent most of the first 29 years of his reign establishing internal stability and prosperity.
In 1787 he did invade the South and capture Isin, although he failed to take Uruk.
He formed a coalition with Larsa and Mari from c.1779-1764 to wage war against Ashur, Elam and the mountain peoples.
In the mid-1770's he, along with troops from Mari and Elam, sacked Eshnunna.
In 1764, Babylon was attacked by a coalition of Elam, Assyria, the Gutians, and Eshnunna, but Hammurapi defeated the coalition (he crushed the invading army comprised of Elamites, Assyrians, Gutians and Eshnunnians).
- The next year (1763) he attacked Larsa after being encouraged by an oracle to do so.
He captured Larsa, made it his southern capital, and swept through all of Sumer.
He defeated another coalition of Elam, Eshnunna, Assyria and Gutium, captured Eshnunna and reached the Assyrian frontier.
Also, he consequered some Elamitic teritories, expanded the Empire to the borders of the Zagros (1763?).
- At this time he turned on his good friend Zimri-Lim and made Mari a vassal (1761)
Two years later Mari revolted and he returned, defeated Marians, utterly destroyed the city and tore down its walls (1759)
- Between 1757-1755 he waged war against Assyria and made them a vassal.
(Hammurapi defeated another Assyrian invasion, and when Eshnunna revolted it was destroyed). Hammurapi now controlled all of Mesopotamia, with the exception of Assyria.
The city state of Yamhad and its allies repulsed any and all Babylonian advances into Syria. He took the title "King of Sumer and Akkad, King of the four Quarters of the World". He promulgated his famous law code later in his reign.
In this period the Amorites completely assimilated into Akkadian culture, adopting their language, religion, and culture. Two dialects of Akkadian were spoken, Babylonian in the south, and Assyrian in the north—Sumerian survived only in scholarly writing. Marduk, god of Babylon, replaced Enlil as king of the gods.
The Marduk temple complex in Babylon was expanded, including the great ziggurat E-temen-an-ki (“House of the Foundation of Heaven and Earth”): the biblical Tower of Babel.
- Samsu-iluna, son of Hammurapi, Σαμψιλύνης, 1749 - 1712
He took control before the death of his father, who was ill.
An outburst of revolts followed the death of Hammurapi, which led to the disintegration of the empire.
Although he fought vigorously, he lost all but Babylonia proper.
Revolution was popular because of the ancient tradition of local independence, the heavy-handed policies of Babylon, and the economic drain to the capital.
- He fought an adventurer who called himself Rim-Sin II of Larsa for five years.
Most of the fighting took place on the Elam/Sumer border before he was captured and executed.
- Eshnunna sided with him and it's ruler Anni was also captured and strangled in Babylon.
During the war, he pulled down the walls of Ur, set fire to the temples and partially destroyed the city.
He did the same to Uruk.
Elam then invaded and sacked them, taking away a statue of Inanna from Uruk.
- A few years later (c.1732) Iluma-Ilu, pretending to be a descendent of Damiq-Ilishu, the last King of Isin, raised the flag of independence over Sumer. He ultimately gained the freedom of Sumer south of Nippur and founded the Dynasty of the Sealand. So, the Sealand () broke away from the empire (Sealand was the Babylonian name for the southern Sumer region, the coastal region on the Persian Gulf).
- At about the same time Assyria rebelled and gained their independence.
- In c.1715 he crushed an invading Kassite army (the Kassites (Kassu) made their first inroads into Babylonia).
-To make up for the lost revenue from the lost provinces, merchants became bankers and loaned to the small shopkeepers and farmers.
They in turn could not repay the loans, so they overworked their lands in order to try. In the process they ignored the rule of fallow and the land became increasingly salinized.
Thus by c.1600, Babylon went from political dissent to economic disruption to ecological disaster.
- Abi-eshuh, son of Samsu-iluna, Αβίεσης , 1711 - 1684
In his reign, the Kassites again attacked Babylon, but were driven off
He allowed the peaceful settling of Kassites in Babylonia as agricultural workers.
He damned the Tigris in an unsuccessful attempt to capture Iluma-Ilu, who had fled to the swamps .
- Ammi-ditana, son of, Αμμιδιθάνης , 1683 - 1647
He was able to regain Uruk, Isin and Larsa in the south, which Babylon held until the fall of the Dynasty
- Ammi-saduka, son of, Αμμισαδόκης, 1646 - 1626
He was famous for his "Edict of Justice" which instituted reforms, including suspending some taxes for a few years and the abolition of imprisonment for debt.
He tried to halt the economic slide but was unable to.
- Samsu-ditana, son of, Σαμψιδιτάνης, 1625 - 1595
There are no documents from his reign except for a list of year names.
He ruled for 30 years in relative peace. He was overthrown when the Hittites (under king Mursilis I) marched into Mesopotamia and sacked (i.e. captured and plundered) Babylon (1595).
(chronological systems: middle 1595, low 1531, very low 1499)
The Hittites did not remain, but Babylonian authority was broken, allowing the Kassite seizure of power
In the 17th century, the Kassites (Kassu) gradually moved into Babylonia from the northeast.
After the Hittite raid on Babylon in 1595, the Kassites took the city.

Sealandean (1793 - 1595)
Kings (Βασιλείς)
- Iluma-ilum , (or Iliman), son of, Ιλύμαιλος 1783 - 1724

However, there is no proof one way or the other on this.
He conquered Babylon (1595)
- Isten- x, son of , Ίστενος 1546 - 1535

The temples of the city were dedicated to Enlil, Ninli and Ninurta.
The presence of Sumerian gods in a Kassite city attests to the degree of assimilation that had taken place. He also built public projects in Uruk and Eridu.
- Kadashman-Enlil I, son of, Καδάλιος Α', ?1374 -1359
Either he or Burnaburiash II conquered Arrapha (Kirkuk).

He fought unsuccessfully against the Elamites.
During his reign Babylonia was conquered by the Assyrians, Tukulti-Ninurta I of Assyria captured Babylon, overthrew Kashtiliash and installed a puppet to rule in his name.
(but after seven years, its independence was recovered).

- Meli-Shipak, son of, Μελισιβάκης, 1186 - 1172
- Marduk-apla-iddin I , son of Meli-Shipak, Μαρδαπλίδης Α', 1171 - 1159
In 1160, the Assyrians conquered the Lower Zab region, and the Elamites took Babylon itself, carrying off spoils, including the Code of Hammurapi to Susa.
He is sometimes called Merodach-Baladan, since Marduk-Apal-Iddina II is called that in the Old Testament

Its possible that Enlil-Nadin-Ahhe fought for two or three years after the fall of Babylon (to 1155).
The statue of Marduk was carried away to Susa.
The Elamites either withdrew or they were expelled the next year.

Δυναστεία 4η[]
(Isinean) (1157 - 1026)
Kings (Βασιλείς)
- Marduk-kabit-ahheshu, son of, Μαρδακαβίχης, 1157 - 1139
After the Kassite defeat, a new dynasty arose in Isin under Marduk-kabit-ahheshu (1156–1139) which eventually retook Babylon.
- Itti-Marduk-balatu, son of, Ιτιμαρδοβάλδης, 1139 - 1132
He fought the Assyrians.
- Ninurta-nadin-shumi, son of, Νινωναδίσης 1131 - 1126
He fought the Assyrians
- Nabu-kudduri-usur, ( or Nebuchadressar ), son of, Ναβουχοδονόσωρ 1125 - 1104
He attacked Elam but was repulsed.
In his second campaign, the Elamite Prince Shitti-Marduk sided with him and he was able to overrun Elam, sack Susa and return the statue of Marduk to Babylon.
This was not a lasting occupation, just revenge and plunder.
The campaign destroyed Elam as a power.
- Enlil-nadin-apli, (or Enlil-apli-ahhe), son of, Ενυλοναδάπαλος 1103 - 1100
- Marduk-nadin-ahhe, son of, bhr of Nabu-kudduri-usur, Μαρδοναδάχης 1099 - 1082
He sacked the Assyrian town of Ekallate.
In retaliation, Assyrians (by Tiglath-Pileser I) swept down and captured Dur-Kurigalzu, Sippar, Opis and Babylon, but could not hold them.
In the last year of his reign a severe famine struck the land.
The chronicles say that the inhabitants of the Babylonian cities were reduced to eating human flesh and Marduk-Nadin-Ahhe "disappeared", i.e. he probably died.
The Arameans began putting pressure on Babylon and Assyria at about this time.
They settled on agricultural lands and established tribal states, sometimes at the very outskirts of cities.
By the 8th century they begin to settle in the cities themselves.
- Marduk-shapik-zeri, son of, Μαρδοσάπιξωρ, 1081 - 1069
He went to Ashur to seek an alliance against the growing Aramean threat, but upon his return home he found that an Aramean by the name of Adad-Apal- Iddina had seized the throne
- Adad-apla-iddin, son of, Αδαπλίδης, 1068 - 1047
An usurper of Aramean background.
He seized the throne while the king was in Assyria.
The Sutu, a Semitic tribe, plundered and destroyed the temple of Shamash, in Sippar, during his reign.
It is also possible that Uruk, Der and Dur-Kurigalzu were either sacked by the Sutu or during uprisings against the king, but this by no means certain.
Later the people of Babylon revolted, but they were put down
- Marduk-ahhe-eriba, son of, Μαρδαχέρβης 1046
- Marduk-zer-?, son of, Μαρδόσωρ 1045 - 1034
The last part of his name is unknown, as the tablet is damaged.
- Nabu-shumu-libur, son of, Ναβοσυμαλίβωρ, 1033 - 1026

(Ε... ) (978 - 732)
Kings (Βασιλείς)
Nabu-mukin-apli, son of, Ναβομυκάπαλος 978 - 943
In the first several years of his reign, the capital was cut off from the surrounding area by the Arameans. In fact for nine years the New Years festival (the most holy of Babylonian festivals) could not be held because the outskirts of the city were not secure. His successors are hardly more than names on a list, for the Kings List is often the only record of their reign.
Δυναστεία Θ'[]
Ninurta-kudurri-usur II, son of, Νινοκαδρόσωρ Β΄, 943
He reigned eight months.
Mar-biti-ahhe-iddin, son of, Μαρβιταχεδών, 942 - 910 .

He restored the temple of Shamash in Sippar which had been destroyed 150 years earlier.
Marduk-zakir-shumi I, son of, Μαρδοζακρισύνης Α΄, ?820 - ?810
His brother launched a rebellion with the support of the Arameans in 850. The king called on Assyria, his powerful neighbor to the north for assistance.
Shalmaneser defeated the rebels, entered Babylon and made offerings to the gods. He then chased the rebels into Sumer and all the way to the Gulf.
In the process he temporarily established Babylon as a vassal.
In gratitude, Marduk-Zakir-Shumi helped Shamshi-Adad V put down the great rebellion of 827-823.
The Chaldeans are first mentioned (in the Assyrian Annals) during his reign.
They lived amongst the swamps and lakes at the southern end of Mesopotamia and were a loose coalition of tribes organized into mini-states.
By their refusal to submit to Assyria they, by default, became the champions of Babylonian independence.
Marduk-balassu-iqbi, son of, Μαρδοβλασύγης ?810 - ?805
Possibly a vassal of Assyria, at least for part of reign. He was deposed by Shamshi-Adad V and carried off to Assyria.

He is called Merodach-Baladan in the Old Testament. He was a Chaldean who seized the throne with the help of Elam. He also claimed descent from Eriba-Marduk. In 720 Sargon marched on him, but was defeated by Humbanigash, the Elamite king. He reigned not as a barbarian chieftain, but as a great Mesopotamian monarch. In 710, Sargon invaded and pushed the Babylonians into the south. Defeated and wounded, Marduk-Apal-Iddina escaped to Elam.

The Assyrian King.
Marduk-zakir-shumi II, son of, Μαρδοσακρισάμης Β΄, 703

Nine months later he was defeated near Kish, but escaped to Elam with the gods of the south. He died in exile a couple of years later.
Bel-ibni, son of, Βηλοιβίνης 702 - 700
He was appointed by Sennacherib. In 700 Marduk-Apal-Iddina re-appeared in the south and stired up a revolt. Bel-Ibni was suspected of collusion and was taken away to Assyria. Sennacherib again chased Marduk-Apal-Iddina into Elam and appointed his son as the new Babylonian king
Assur-nadin-shumi, son of Sennacherib, Ασσυροναδισάμης 699 - 694
After six relatively peaceful years, the Assyrians and Babylonians launched a combined sea and land attack on Elam. Some coastal and border towns were occupied.
In retaliation Elam invaded and sacked Sippar.
Encouraged, the Babylonians revolted, seized Ashur-Nadin-Shumi and handed him over to the Elamites. They sent him back to Elam and he disappeared (he probably was murdered)
Nergal-ushezib, son of, Νεργασεζίβης, 693
A puppet of Elam. He was captured by Assyria near Nippur and carried in chains to Assyria.
Mushezib-Marduk, son of, Μυσβoμάρδης, 692 - 689
A Chaldean prince chosen by the local populace, who once again revolted with the support of Elam. The Assyrians met the Elamite/Babylonian army at the battle of Hallule.
The Assyrians and Babylonians both claimed victory. Since Mushezib remained on the throne, it seems likely that the Assyrians were defeated, or at least suffered severe losses.
The Elamite king Humban-Nimena suffered an incapacitating stroke in 689, depriving the Babylonians of their ally.
Sennacherib struck and captured Babylon after a nine month siege.

This was to be the only problem in the south during his reign. The people of Babylonia supported him because of his lavish rebuilding of Babylon. In fact, in 675, the Babylonians defeated an Elamite invasion by themselves.
Shamash-shuma-ukin, son of, bhr of Esarhaddon , *Σαμοσυμοκίνης, (Σαοσδούχινος) 667 - 648
The Elamites invaded the land c.660 and again in 655, when their king was killed in battle.
