readx;? King Ilkab Tamu concluded the Peace and Trade Treaty with Aparsal, the earliest international treaty ever recognized. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

After signing Aparsal, Ebra pulled his hand.

This was followed by military operations by Ebra to suppress the rebellious princes, including several attacks on Almiram and military against the southern city of Ipali Ibal, which had taken refuge in Chatna.

After quelling the rebellion, the king's army attacked Mari, who was defeated and the Ebla people rejoiced.

Isar Tamu, reigned 35 years, 2440-2405 BC. Suffix: Tamu God.

In 2440 BC, Isar Tamu succeeded to the throne of Ebra of Ilqab-Tamu.

During this period, the Minister Ibi Supish H was promoted to Prime Minister.

In 2425 BC, Mari launched an attack on the state of Nagar, which occupied the canal's waterways, and defeated Nagar, blocking the trade route between Ebra and the city of Kish in southern Mesopotamia. The move caused strong resentment from King Ul Zappapa, King of the Third Dynasty of Kish.

Subsequently, the Kish Third Dynasty formed an alliance with the Ebla and Nagar dynasties against the Mares.

In 2420 BC, the coalition forces came into contact with Mari near Terga, and the Ebla Prime Minister Ibi Supeshh fired the first shot of the war, leading the coalition to victory. The coalition forces also attacked and captured Armi, and appointed Ibi Supish as governor (governor) of his son Ens Malik.

Eventually, the coalition invaded Marai, after which the nations withdrew, and only the younger brother of King Urzapapa, King of the Third Dynasty of Kish, led an army to garrison Mari, which eventually emptied the city of Kish and led to the death of King Urzapapa. After a fierce battle between Uruk and Kish, Uruk was defeated, while Kish suffered heavy losses, while Marry's strength was almost undamaged.

In 2408 BC, Marre, under the leadership of King Shalum Iteter, gained the upper hand and captured many of the cities of Ebla.

In 2405 BC, Ebla was captured by Marre. King Isar Tamu was killed in battle.

Ilrak Tamu ir'ak-damu, reigned 2405-2400. Suffix: Tamu God.

In 2405 BC, Isar Tamu's son, Ilrak Tamu, succeeded to the throne while leading the remnants of Ebra's forces into flight.

In 2400 BC, the Marish army fought a fierce battle with the remnants of Ekara's army at Terga, and Ilrak Tamu was killed in battle, and the First Ebra Dynasty was completely destroyed. The main force of the Marish army took the city of Ebla as the capital and established the Second Dynasty of Ebla, also known as the Marriot Kingdom.

The First Dynasty of Ekara lasted a total of 34 kings and 700 years.

After the fall of the Shamash dynasty, the cities of the Eastern Semites were successively controlled by the Sumerian Ensi, only Mari and Akshak were still controlled by the Ensi of the Eastern Semites, and of course, the third and fourth dynasties of Kish were controlled by the highly Sumerianized East Semites. But they weren't authentic Eastern Semites after all.

After the defeat of the Shamash dynasty, the main forces of the Eastern Semites were scattered and reverted to becoming a nomadic tribe wandering in the region, whose main force did not live in the cities, but lived in the steppes and plains in pursuit of water and grass, and reverted to the nomadic life of the northern steppes.

The Table of Assyrian Kings details the table of the kings of the dynasties after the Shamash dynasty. Most scholars believe that it is only the history of the Assyrians themselves, but in fact, the Assyrians consider themselves to be Eastern Semites, and the Akkadian and other subdivisions are only the names of the Eastern Semites in a certain period, for them, Assyria is actually the name of the Eastern Semites, so the later Akkadian Dynasty and the First Dynasty of Isin were included in their own history, so the Assyrian kings at that time represent the history of the rise and fall of the Eastern Semites.

Assyrian monarchs

"The King Who Lives in a Tent"

The phrase "dwelling in tents" is the original text in the table of the Assyrian kings, which indicates that the Assyrians (Eastern Semites) were in the tribal clan phase during this period and did not establish hereditary slavery. This period lasted for 14 Ishaku (kings), 2490-2374.

In 2490 BC, after the fall of the Shamash dynasty, Ikunum led the remnants of the Shamash dynasty to return to the Silesian region and live a nomadic life, and the system also returned to the original clan system of the noble elders' council, electing older but energetic old men to serve as the great elders, that is, Ishaku. But in fact, because the Great Elder was too old and had no fixed residence, he often died of illness within a few years. As a result, the regime has never been stable.

In fact, it is often clear from the name of the king which stage it is in, often the king with the name of the god in the name generally lives in the city, and only the name, without the name of the god, may be the head of the clan tribe.

The person who had the closest position to a king in the Assyrian city-state system was called "Ishaku", who had the right to convene councils of elders and assume religious positions. In reality, however, the more powerful person may have been the Celebrity, a position similar to that of the ancient Roman consuls, appointed by Ishacus at the beginning of each year. Because the Great Elder is too old and has too many things, he can only be handed over to a young and powerful person to serve as a famous official, so his power is extremely great, and he is the uncrowned king.

The name of the year official is a year, the reason why the name of the year official is because of the tribal system of the East Semites, the name of the person, for example, a certain Ishaku reigned for 9 years, then these 9 years, he will change 9 people as his assistant to deal with affairs, generally not re-elected, the names of these 9 people will be recorded, then later people look at the information to know how many years he has been in power, just look at the names of several year officials.

List of Ishaku:

Tudia, reigned 2490-2477 BC.

In 2490 BC, Tudia was elected Ishaku (tribal leader) by the Council of Elders.

Atamu, reigned 2477-2471 BC.

In 2477 BC, Adamu was elected Ishaku by the Council of Elders.

Yangi, reigned 2471-2460 BC.

In 2471 BC, Yangi was elected Ishaku by the Council of Elders.
