>Tidnu appears already in Mesopotamian inscriptions from the late third millennium BC as an epithet for an Amorite group or toponym within the Amorite sphere. In the Assyrian king list and the king list of the dynasty of Hammurabi (BM 80328), Didanu or Ditanu appears as the name of one of the first Amorite kings associated with the cult of the aurochs. In Ugaritic, the word ddn/dtn became a collective noun for the first kings who had departed this world. In a funeral liturgy for the dead king (KTU3 1.161 9-10) and in the Legend of Kirta (KTU3 1.15 III 2-4, 13-15), the phrase "Council (qbṣ) of Ddn" is found parallel to the expression "Rephaim of the Underworld" (rp ̓i ̓arṣ). These discoveries reveal how this name evolved from an ancient people in the Amorite sphere to the name of one of the royal progenitors of the West Semitic dynasties, while in Ugaritic it became a general name corresponding to the Hebrew phrase "Rephaim of the Underworld," used to refer to dead kings who inhabited the underworld
>The main temple of the state of Lagash was the E-ninnu at Girsu, dedicated to the god Ningirsu. The state of Lagash incorporated the ancient cities of Lagash, Girsu, and Nina
>The main rulers of the Sumerian city-state of Lagash included Ur-Nanshe, the founder of the dynasty; his son Eannatum, who achieved military dominance; Entemena, known for border disputes; Enannatum II; and Enentarzi, a minor ruler. The dynasty ended with Lugalanda and the reformer Urukagina, before the rise of the famous Gudea
>The cult of Ninurta can be traced back to the oldest period of Sumerian history. In the inscriptions found at Lagash he appears under his name Ningirsu, "the lord of Girsu", Girsu being the name of a city where he was considered the patron deity. In the astrotheology system Ninurta was associated with the planet Saturn, or perhaps as offspring or an aspect of Saturn
