Eannatum the Conqueror

“Eannatum The Conqueror” was written by Cam Rea

It’s around 2430 BCE in ancient Mesopotamia and Eannatum, King of Lagash, is in the midsts of establishing the first empire in history through constant warring.

Statue of Eannatum

One would think that Eannatum’s early military campaign would have begun by attacking the city-state of Umma, due to their previous disputes over the border and waterways. However, instead of going straight for Umma, Eannatum turned his attentions to the Elamites. There he “conquered Elam” and ripped up their “burial mounds.”

But why did Eannatum’s tour start with Elam? Well, the Elamites were a troublesome hill people, and in many ways they were still partly nomadic at the time. In other words, they had moved past being hunter-gatherers and had established a civilization like those living in Mesopotamia. However, they still clung to nomadic methods of warfare such as raiding.

An example is the destruction of Ur, which came much later. The actions of this event are found in The Lament of Ur, which states, “Enlil brought down the Elamites, the enemy, from the highlands … Fire approached Ninmarki in the shrine of Gu-aba. Large boats were carrying off its silver and lapis lazuli.”

This type of pillage-and-run tactic likely became monotonous to those living nearest to them. Additionally, Eannatum saw an economic opportunity in subjugating Elam.

He was confident that his military forces could protect Lagash while the main body was sent to conquer and confiscate the lands of Elam, which was rich in timber, precious metals, and stone. Eannatum’s take-over of Elam gave him the resources needed to provide for an army on the march.

Of Elam’s natural goods, one sticks out as a major attraction to Eannatum… tin, which could be found in mines that dotted the Zagros Mountains. Tin was more rare than copper and an essential ingrediant. Without tin to accompany the copper, the manufacturing of bronze weapons was impossible.

Not only did Elam produce its own tin, although how much they produced is uncertain, they also had valuable trade routes that ran through the region from the east. In fact, the mining and transportation of tin went beyond the Iranian plateau. These were all attractive features for the King of Lagash.

Next for Eannatum was the city-state of Urua, located in the northwestern Iranian province of Khuzistan and within the vicinity of Elam. The importance of conquering this city-state was due to its strategic postioning. Urua was on the Susiana plain, which controlled the passage that lead into what would be later become the southern portion of Babylonia.

Finally Eannatum went after his long-term enemy, Umma. As mentioned previously, Umma held an advantage over Lagash due to the bordering Shatt al-Gharraf waterway. By conquering Umma, Lagash had sole control over the waterway that filtered in from the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers. Furthermore, Lagash at last possessed the fertile fields of Guedena.

Eannatum’s tour of Elam, Urua, and Umma paid off. Eannatum now had provinces and regions rich with resources, including metal to produce weapons and fertile fields to grow food, both of which were used to feed and arm his forces.

But Eannatum was far from finished.

With an increase in resource-rich lands came an increase in manpower to replenish and increase the size of his ranks. Eannatum was drunk with power and looked west to quench his thirst.

With his eastern flank secured, the west was ripe for the taking. Eannatum led his forces to the city-state of Uruk, which was important for a number of reasons. The first was that Uruk sat along the Euphrates River and was not far from the Persian Gulf, making it a valuable trading city by both land and sea. Second, Uruk’s population was rather large and prosperous, fed by the surrounding fertile fields. This meant Uruk was desirable in terms of supplying the army with food and swelling the ranks with additional troops.

With Uruk conquered, Ur came next and its armies were put to the sword. Ur was also a valuable trading center, and like Uruk, offered a strategic location near the mouth of the Euphrates River that led into the Persian Gulf, which was used for importing and exporting resources.

At this point, Eannatum’s empire was flanked by three natural barriers: the Zagros Mountains to the east, the dessert to the west, and the Persian Gulf to the south. Eannatum’s only true threat now came from the north.

And so, Eannatum made his way north, eyeing the prize worthy religious target known as Kish. However, this time, things weren’t so simple. Zuzu, the king of Akshak, had enough of Eannatum’s war making and went out to confront the man who wished to own the world.

Zuzu, along with his forces, faced Eannatum and his army and a battle commenced. Eventually, Zuzu was killed in combat and his city-state of Akshak taken and incorporated into Eannatum’s ever increasing empire. With Akshak conquered, Eannatum marched into Kish with ease.

Eannatum, confident in his power, decided to take the title “King of Kish.” This names means much more than being the overlord of Kish. It implies that whoever has it, is also King of all of Sumer.

You would think that Eannatum would have been happy with his conquests, since he was now considered the king of Sumer. However, war is the health of the state and that rang true for Eannatum. Soon after Eannatum had taken over and centralised all of Sumer under his sole authority, city-states outside the sphere started to look attractive.

And so Eannatum’s empire continued to grow.

 

King Eannatum Quote From Sitchin Earth Chronicle Book

(gods in blue …mixed-breed demigods in teal…)

 

Lagash had escaped the turbulant years of Sargon and Naram-Sin…it was the “cult center” of Ninurta. As “Enlil’s Firmost Warrior”, Ninurta made sure…Lagash would be militarily proficient.

The resulting victories of Eannatum even impressed Inanna…and

         “because she loved Eannatum, kingship over Kish she gave him,

         in addition to the governship of Lagash…”

Eannatum became the LU.GAL (“Great Man”, “Mighty Man”) of Sumer.

67:1 Découvertes, pl. 2, No. 3. The writing used in this inscription resembles that of the inscriptions of Ur-ninâ and the Stêlê of the Vultures more than any other. However, the little that remains of the first column seems to indicate that it belongs to a patesi and not to a king, perhaps to an E-anna-du.

67:2 This proper name is mutilated, but I believe my reading very probable. Cf. the Stêlê of the Vultures, Obv. i. 1.

(gods in blue …mixed-breed demigods in teal…)

        After the Flood had swept over and caused the destruction of the earth,

        when the permanence of humanity had been assured and its descendants preserved,

        when the black-headed people had risen up again from their clay,

        and when, humanity’s name having been given and government having been established,

        [the gods] An (Anu) and Enlil had not yet caused kingship, crown of the cities, to come down from heaven,

        http://earthstation1.simplenet.com (earthling, Ninurta & Enlil giving 1st plow & the labor to mankind)

        and by Ningirsu (Ninurta), they had not yet put in place the spade,

        the hoe, the basket, nor the plow that turns the soil, for the countless throng of silent people –

       1ba - story of Gilgamesh (earthlings prior to DNA modifications, non-workers)

        at that time the human race in its carefree infancy had a hundred years.

        Coming into an advanced age, it had another hundred years.

       2b - Ninhursag, Chief Medical Officer  (Ninhursag with her failed early attempts to fashion workers, using manipulated DNA mixes)

        But without the ability to carry out the required work, its numbers decreased, decreased greatly.

        In the sheepfolds, its sheep and goats died out.

        CCT-08-099-UNC (areal view of Lagash ruins)

        At this time, water was short in Lagaš (Lagash), there was famine in Girsu.

        Canals were not dug, vast lands were not irrigated by a shadoof,

        abundant water was not used to dampen meadows and fields, because humanity counted on rainwater.

        2d - Inanna, unknowns, & Nisaba

        (Inanna, unidentified mixed-breed, Ninlil, her father Haia, & his spouse Nisaba, Ninlil‘s mother, the Goddess of Grains)

        Ašnan (Nisaba) did not bring forth dappled barley, no furrow was plowed nor bore fruit!

        No land was worked nor bore fruit!

        No country or people made libations of beer or wine, […] sweet wine […], to the gods.

        No one used the plow to work the vast lands.

        (…)

        The canals […].

        Their fields […].

        In order to dig the canals, in order to dredge the irrigation ditches, in order to irrigate the vast lands by a shadoof,

        in order to utilize abundant water so that the meadows and fields were moistened,

        7a - when the gods did the work before man 1f - gods battling gods

                 (Anunnaki gods hard working the soil                                  alien giant gods demand replacement workers from Enlil)

        An and Enlil put a spade, a hoe, a basket, a plow, the life of the land, at the disposal of the people.

       Farming - gods then man tilled the fields   7b - farming in Enlil's Edin

                  (earthlings taught to farm by the gods, who tired from the long heavy labor needed performed on Earth Colony)

        After this time, human beings gave all their attention to making the barley grow.

        Before the Young Lady, in front of her they stood upright, ready to work.

        Day and night, whenever necessary, they were attentive.

        They bowed down before Ašnan (Nisaba) who produces barley seed and began to work.

E-dbau, temple to the goddess Bau in Lagash

E-dam, temple built by Ur-Nanshe in Lagash

E-dim-gal-abzu temple in Lagash

E-ninnu (House of 50), temple to Ningirsu in Lagash

E-a-mer, the ziggurat of E-ninnu in Lagash

 

8th city built on Earth. Lagash, now called Telloh by the natives, was first excavated by a Frenchman in 1877. The 650 year dynasty in Lagash started in 2900 B.C.

One of the world’s earliest known poems, 3800 years old, describes the destruction of Lagash:

“My soul sighs in anguish for the city and its precious things;

My soul sighs in anguish for Lagash and its precious things.

The children are in distress in holy Lagash

Because the invader has pressed into the splendid shrine

And stolen away the Exalted Queen from her temple!

O Lady of my desolated city, when will you return?…”

According to “The Lost Book of Enki”:

“On Earth more heroes were arriving,

some to the Edin were assigned, some in the Abzu tasks were given.

Larsa and Lagash by Enlil were constructed…”

Lagash had escaped the turbulent years of Sargon and Naram-Sin...it was the “cult center” of Ninurta. As “Enlil’s Firmost Warrior”, Ninurta made sure…Lagash would be militarily proficient.

The resulting victories of Eannatum even impressed Inanna…and

         “because she loved Eannatum, kingship over Kish she gave him,

         in addition to the governship of Lagash…”

Eannatum became the LU.GAL (“Great Man”) of Sumer.

Ur-Bau, the viceroy of Lagash at the time of the Naram-Sin upheavals. That he was instructed by Ninurta to reinforce the walls of the Girsu and strengthen the enclosure of the Imdugud aircraft. Ur-Bau

         “compacted the soil to be as stone…fired clay to be as metal;…”

and at the Imdugud’s platform

         “replace the old soil with a new foundation…”

According to Gudea’s inscriptions, “the Lord of Girsu” appeared unto him in a vision, standing beside his “Divine Black Bird”. The god expressed to him the wish that a new E.NINNU (“House of Fifty”)–also Ninurta’s numerical rank, be built by Gudea.

Gudea was given two sets of divine instructions: one from a goddess who in one hand

         “held the tablet of the favorable star of heavens…”

and with the other

         “held a holy stylus…”

with which she indicated to Gudea “the favorable planet” in whose direction the temple should be oriented.

The other set of instructions came from a god that Gudea did not recognize…Ningishzidda. He handed to Gudea a tablet made of precious stone

         “the plan of a temple it contained…”

 

Ningishzidda…knew how to secure the foundations of the temples; he was

         “the great god who held the plans…”

         “a god called forth from obscurity in Gudea’s time,…”

only to become a “phantom god” and a mere memory in later (Babylonian and Assyrian) times.

The nuclear attack by Nergal & Ninurta:

In Lagash,

         “mother Bau wept bitterly for her holy temple, for her city…”

Though Ninurta was gone, his spouse could not force herself to leave. Lingering behind, “O my city, O my city,” she kept crying; the delay almost cost her her life:

         “On that day, the lady–the storm caught up with her;

         Bau, as if she were mortal–the storm caught up with her…”
