About this listen

Synopsis: Ur-Namma unifies Sumer and ejects the Elamites. His son, King Shulgi, designs a new empire and begins a push for Zagros domination. “The trustworthy shepherd, king, the sword of Sumer, Ur-Namma, the king of the Land, was taken to the …house…he who was beloved by the troops, could not raise his neck anymore. The wise one…lay down; silence descended. As he, who was the vigor of the Land, had fallen, the Land became demolished like a mountain…He passed away in his prime…abandoned, like a broken jar.” – The Death of Ur-Namma Map of the Near East c. 2112 BC: https://audio.ancientworldpodcast.com/2112BC.jpg Map of the Near East c. 2060 BC: https://audio.ancientworldpodcast.com/2060BC.jpg Episode Images: https://www.flickr.com/photos/75506172@N07/albums/72177720331669262/ References and Further Reading: https://audio.ancientworldpodcast.com/A10_References.pdf Please contact advertising@airwavemedia.com if you would like to advertise on this podcast.
