Louvre Museum .
Reign c. 2500 BC – 2400 BC Predecessor Akurgal Successor En-anna-tum I Dynasty 1st Dynasty of Lagash
Eannatum (Sumerian : 𒂍𒀭𒈾𒁺 É.AN.NA -tum2 Sumerian Ensi Lagash circa 2500–2400 BCE. He established one of the first verifiable empires in history, subduing Elam and destroying the city of Susa , and extending his domain over the rest of Sumer and Akkad .[1] Amorite ) name was Lumma
Conquest of Sumer [ edit ]
Eannatum, grandson of Ur-Nanshe and son of Akurgal , was a king of Lagash who conquered all of Sumer, including Ur Nippur , Akshak (controlled by Zuzu), Larsa , and Uruk (controlled by Enshakushanna , who is on the King List ).[1]
He entered into conflict with Umma , waging a war over the fertile plain of Gu-Edin .[1] Ush , the ruler of Umma, finally making a boundary treaty with Enakalle , successor of Ush, as described in the Stele of the Vultures and in the Cone of Entemena :[2] [1]

Eannatum I was king of Lagash , circa 2400 BC.
Eannatum made Umma a tributary, where every person had to pay a certain amount of grain into the treasury of the goddess Nina and the god Ingurisa.[5] [1]
Conquest outside Sumer [ edit ]

Eannatum expanded his influence beyond the boundaries of Sumer. He conquered parts of Elam , including the city Az off the coast of the modern Persian Gulf , allegedly smote Shubur , and, having repulsed Akshak , he claimed the title of "King of Kish " (which regained its independence after his death) and demanded tribute as far as Mari :[1]
"He (Eannatum) defeated Zuzu, the king of Akshak , from the Antasurra of Ningirsu up to Akshak and destroyed him."
"The king of Akshak ran back to his land."

Inscriptions of Eannatum.[6]
Eannatum recorded his victories on a stone inscription:
Eannatum, the ensi Enlil , who constantly is nourished by Ninhursag with her milk, whose name Ningirsu had pronounced, who was chosen by Nanshe in her heart, the son of Akurgal , the ensi of Lagash , conquered the land of Elam , conquered Urua , conquered Umma , conquered Ur Ningirsu , in his wide temple courtyard. Eananatum's god is Shulutula . Then did Ningirsu love Eannatum".

However, revolts often arose in parts of his empire. During Eannatum’s reign, many temples and palaces were built, especially in Lagash.[9] Niniveh , was rebuilt, with many canals and reservoirs being excavated.
Stele of the Vultures [ edit ]
A fragment of the Stele of the Vultures showing vultures with severed human heads in their beaks and a fragment of cuneiform script .
The so-called Stele of the Vultures , now in the Louvre , is a fragmented limestone stele found in Telloh , (ancient Girsu) Iraq , in 1881. The stele is reconstructed as having been 1.80 metres (5 ft 11 in ) high and 1.30 metres (4 ft 3 in ) wide and was set up ca. 2500–2400 BCE.[10] Ush, king of Umma , leading to a boundary treaty with his successor Enakalle of Umma .[11] [5]
On it various incidents in the war are represented. In one register, the king (his name appears inscribed around his head) stands in front of his phalanx of heavily armoured soldiers, with a curved weapon in his right hand, formed of three bars of metal bound together by rings. In another register a figure, the king, his name again inscribed around his head, rides on his chariot in the thick of the battle, while his kilted followers, with helmets on their heads and lances in their hands, march behind him.[5]
On the other side of the stele is an image of Ninurta , a god of war, holding the captive Ummaites in a large net. This implies that Eannatum attributed his victory to Ninurta, and thus that he was in the god's protection (though some accounts say that he attributed his victory to Enlil , the patron deity of Lagash).[10] [5]
The victory of Eannatum is mentioned in a fragmentary inscription on the stele, suggesting that after the loss of 3,600 soldiers on the field, Ush, king of Umma , was killed in a rebellion in his capital city of Umma : “[…] (Eanatum) defeated him. Its ( = Umma’s) 3600 corpses reached the base of heaven [...] raised (their) hands against him and killed him in Umma.”.[12]
Other inscriptions [ edit ]
