[edit] Hadad-nadin-akhe inscription

The E-Ninnu temple had been razed and a fortress built upon its ruins, in the Greek or Seleucid period, some of the bricks found bearing the inscription in Aramaic and Greek of a certain Hadad-nadin-akhe, king of a small Babylonian kingdom.

Anyone know where I can get more information on this? --Iustinus 18:58, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

Hmmm, according to J. Naveh "The Inscriptions from Failaka and the Lapidary Aramaic Script", Bulletin of the American Schools of Oriental Research, No. 297. (Feb., 1995), pp. 1-4, such an inscription was found, but at Telloh (i.e. Girsu), not Tell al-Hiba (i.e. Lagash). In the Greek version, the king's name is Αδαδναδιναχης (cf. this page), in the Aramaic it is הדדנדנאח. The Aramaic version can be found in Corpus Inscriptionum Semeticarum II, #72. It doesn't seem to say where to find the Greek version. --Iustinus 19:31, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
