Zababa

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Zababa was an Akkadian war god. He was also adopted by the Hittites, who brought his worship to Anatolia.

Several ancient Mesopotamian kings were named in honor of Zababa, including Ur-Zababa of Kish (early patron of Sargon of Akkad) and Zababa-shumma-iddini (a 12th century BCE Kassite king of Babylon).
