Sin-Iddinam (𒀭𒂗𒍪𒄿𒁷𒈾𒄠, dsuen-i-din-nam) ruled the
ancient Near East city-state of
Larsa from 1785 BC to 1778 BC. He was the son of
Nur-Adad, with
whom there may have been a short co-regency overlap.[1][2][3]
The annals for his 7-year reign record that he campaigned against
Babylon in year 4, Ibrat and
Malgium in year 5, and
Eshnunna in year 6.
Sin-Iddinam is also known for a prayer to God
Utu, whom he describes as "Father of the
black-headed ones".[4]
