Abstract

During E-anatum’s reign, lists of the king’s wars consistently appear for the first time
in Sumerian royal inscriptions. The ordering of events in these lists is a long-debated
question and the hypothesis of a chronological enumeration has prevailed for a long time.
In the present article it is argued that E-anatum’s military campaigns were ordered on the
basis of a geographical-numerical pattern.
