Tummal Inscription
The Tummal Inscription is a writing of ancient Sumer from the time of the ruler Ishbi-Erra.[1] The writing lists the names of the rulers that built the temples dedicated to Enlil within Nippur [2] and temples of Ninlil in Tummal, [1][3] amongst whom were the king of Kish, Enmebaragesi and his heir Agga.[4]<templatestyles src="Template:Blockquote/styles.css" />
Enmebaragesi,
The king in this very city (that is Nippur),
built the House of Enlil,
Agga the son of Enmebaragesi,
made the Tummal pre-eminent. [5]
The chronicle was written by two persons from Nippur and, most likely Ur.[6][7][8] A number of religious analyses of the inscriptions find evidence within the text for a claim of divine intervention.[9]
The inscription was useful in the understanding of the archeology and history of Gilgamesh.[1][5]
