Shu-Ninua

Shu-Ninua (c. 1625-1615 BCE short chronology) was a king of Assyria during the Old Assyrian period. He is listed as the 67th king in the Assyrian King List.

Shu-Ninua's reign falls within a poorly documented period of Assyrian history, making it difficult to ascertain specific details about his activities or the political landscape of his time. Sources concerning this era are scarce and often fragmented, leading to scholarly debates regarding the chronology and events of this period. He is thought to have ruled during a time of regional instability and potential influence from surrounding powers. Details about his parentage, successors, and the extent of his kingdom are largely unknown and based on the limited information gleaned from the Assyrian King List and occasional mentions in later historical texts. Consequently, a comprehensive understanding of his reign remains elusive.
