Les premières années du roi Zimrî-Lîm de Mari. Deuxième partie
By (author) J.-M. Durand
This volume continues the publication of epistolary texts from the royal archives of Mari relating to the accession to power of King Zimri-Lim. Once Bannum had disappeared, the king of Mari had to confront a part of the Bedouin population of his kingdom who, while recognizing his supremacy, wanted to be autonomous. This confrontation took place while the troops of Esnunna were moving northwards and the kingdom of Upper Mesopotamia (RHM) was disappearing. The book includes documents concerning the first generation of mar yamina kings and the conflict in general.
ARMT XXXIV is the sequel to ARMT XXXIII and continues the publication of epistolary texts from the royal archives of Mari relating to the accession to power of King Zimri-Lim. Once Bannum had disappeared, the king of Mari had to confront a part of the Bedouin population of his kingdom who, while recognising his supremacy, wanted to be autonomous. This confrontation took place while the troops of Esnunna were moving northwards and the kingdom of Upper Mesopotamia (RHM) was disappearing. The book includes documents concerning the first generation of mar yamina kings and the conflict in general. On this occasion, the documents concerning Emar, Tuttul and the chief of the Asarugayu, Asma?, are published. The texts are either unpublished or reprinted. Among the theses supported in this work, it is proposed to abandon the notion of war between Esnunna and Mari at the beginning of Zimri-Lim’s reign, but to speak of “Bedouin wars” instead of “revolt of the Mar yamina”. The book includes an index of comments to the edition of the documents.
