This ruler had victories over Kashtubila (kahsh-too-BEE-la), Luhi-ishan (lu-hi-i-SHAN), and Lugalzagesi (lu-gal- zah-GEE-see). This leader was, like Moses, abandoned in a basket in a river as an infant. Upon his death, this em- peror was succeeded by his sons Rimush (ri-MOOSH) and then Manishtushu (ma-neesh-TOO-shoo). According to legend, he was a cupbearer to Ur-Zababa before becoming King. It is difficult to date his reign because his capital has not been found, but historians believe he came to power around 2270 BCE. Name this leader who conquered much of Sumer from his base in Akkad.
