Kalibum of Kish was the seventh Sumerian king in the First Dynasty of Kish, according to the Sumerian king list. [1] This name is written "Ga-lí-bu-um ... normalized as Kalibum", and is believed to be derived from the Akkadian for 'hound'. [2] Kalibum is unlikely to have existed as his name does not appear on texts dating from the period in which he was presumed to have lived ( Early Dynastic period). [3]
