] The most famous of the later patesis, or viceroys, of Shirpurla, the Sumerian city in Southern Babylonia now marked by the mounds of Telloh. Photograph by Messrs. Mansell & Co. Ur, Isin, and, Larsam succeeded one another in the position of leadingcity in Babylonia, holding Mppur, Eridu, Erech, Shirpurla, and the otherchief cities in a condition of semi-dependence upon themselves. We maynote that the true reading of the name of the founder of the dynastyof Ur has now been ascertained from a sy...llabary to be Ur-Engur; and anunpublished chronicle in the British Museum relates that his son Dungicared greatly for the city of Eridu, but sacked Babylon and carried offits spoil, together with the treasures from E-sagila, the great templeof Marduk. Such episodes must have been common at this period when eachcity was striving for hegemony. Meanwhile, Shirpurla remained the centreof Sumerian influence in Babylonia, and her patesis were content to oweallegiance to so powerful a ruler as Dungi, King of Ur, while at alltimes exercising complete authority within their own jurisdiction.
