Are you sure about this? This does not appear to match some info from other articles. A source citation would be useful. -- The Anome 13:10, 24 Aug 2004 (UTC)
I have no idea when chronicle (BM 25127 I assume?) mentions or likely refers to Assuretelilani fighting Sinshariskun, let alone in the year 623. A source is necessary here, until then I thought it was better to remove that part as there is no prove that the two ever fought each other. Djaser 18:39, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
- Fair enough, in the meantime let's put the disputed text here until whoever added it comes up with their source:
- According to the chronicle, in 623 Ashur-etil-ilani was defeated and killed in battle against Sin-shar-ishkun near Nippur. It appears that Sin-shar-ishkun, who was his main rival, was considered the legal successor, at least in Babylon.
