He normally wears a close fitting cup, maybe made of sheep-skin and a long tasselled dress.
Only in one example (M, Soclet-statue) he wears a different dress, reminiscent of the Akkadian royal costume (torso of Manishtusu).
It seems that the early statues are small and made of more local stones (limestone, steatite and alabaster); later, when wide-ranging trade-connections had been established, the more costly exotic diorite was used.

 The Father's Curse   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Part of Manishtusu hoped that this would break him-he hated the handsome child who seemed not to be his son.
Manishtusu had cringed, wondering what the senile old man might say, and when he finally said it, the cringe had turned to a blank look of rage.
Manishtusu now had other sons, after all-sons more like himself-sons he even felt relatively sure were his own.

Sargon was succeed by his son, Rimush, who ruled for 9 years, continuing his father's policies of war and dominance before meeting his end at the hands of angry administrators who killed him with their clay tablets.
His brother Manishtusu ruled after him, strengthening the Akkadian hold on the mines of southern Elam.

 Akkadian Empire   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Thus, the founders of the dynasty of Akkad were presumably members of a people who had been familiar for centuries with Mesopotamian culture in all its forms.
From a practical point of view, it was probably in any case impossible to organize an empire that would embrace all Mesopotamia.
Since the reports (i.e., copies of inscriptions) left by Manishtusu, Naram-Sin, and Shar-kali-sharri speak time and again of rebellions and victorious battles and since Rimush, Manishtusu, and Shar-kali-sharri are themselves said to have died violent deaths, the problem of what remained of Akkad' s greatness obtrudes.

 In ancient times
Even in old age, when a huge rebel force beseiged him at Agade, the mighty King Sargon led his army to victory.
Sargon's son and successor, Rimush, reigned for only nine years before being assassinated by members of his own court, possibly at the instigation of his brother Manishtusu, who replaced him as monarch.
After 15 years on the throne, Manishtusu too was murdered.

 And Never Let Go
But all Manishtusu saw was a stiff-necked fox-bitch that should know by now that she was beaten.
He could hardly see her-only the outline of her form and the glint off of the copper of her weapon but knew there was something different about her.
She paused, and then she cracked open the door, and held the point of the sword at the throat of Manishtusu.

She thought of the time she rode from Nippur to pursuit of Manishtusu and his men.
Long ago, she had learned one trick of dealing with many persons-realize that they are often less rational in numbers than they are singly.
They lay the litter on top of the bier of Manishtusu, and then exited, leaving her alone with the body and a torch to light the tomb.

 ยท Darkness -> Akkadians
With phrases such as "There will come a king of the four quarters of the earth," liver omens (soothsaying done by analyzing the shape of a sheep's liver) of the Old Babylonian period express the yearning for unity at a time when Babylonia had once again disintegrated into a dozen or more small states._
According to the Sumerian king list, the first five rulers of Akkad (Sargon, Rimush, Manishtusu, Naram-Sin, and Shar-kali-sharri) ruled for a total of 142 years; Sargon alone ruled for 56.
Since the reports (i.e., copies of inscriptions) left by Manishtusu, Naram-Sin, and Shar-kali-sharri speak time and again of rebellions and victorious battles and since Rimush, Manishtusu, and Shar-kali-sharri are themselves said to have died violent deaths, the problem of what remained of Akkad's greatness obtrudes.

 UAE History: 20,000 - 2,000 years ago - UAEinteract
The Akkadian king Sargon of Agade said in a royal inscription that ships from Dilmun, Magan and Meluhha docked at the quay of his capital city.
Magan was later attacked by two of Sargon's successors, the kings Manishtusu and Naram-Sin.
The 'copper mountain of Magan' mentioned in Mesopotamian sources undoubtedly refers to the copper-rich Hajar mountains, as numerous sites littered with slag from the refining of copper in both Ras al-Khaimah and Fujairah attest.

He claims to have won a great victory over the City of Kish, and he dedicated the spoil, including a statue of bright silver, to Mullil, the god of Calanne (Nippur).
It seems like that Kish was the most southern city captured by Semites; of one of its kings, Manishtusu, we possess a mace-head, as a sign of his royalty, and a stele, or obelisk, in archaic cuneiforms and Semitic Babylonian.
Somewhat later Mesilim, the King of Kish, retrieved the defeat of his predecessor and acted as suzerain of Shirpurla.

Politically, Naram-Sin surpassed his two predecessors, Rimush and Manishtusu, on a scale similar to that of his grandfather Sargon.

Sargon was succeeded in 2279 BC by his sons Rimush, who ruled for only nine years, and Manishtusu, who reigned from 2269 to 2255 BC.
Manishtusu's son and Sargon's grandson, Naram-Sin, ruled from 2254 to 2218 BC, and became a hero of legend like his grandfather.
The bronze head from Nineveh pictured above is most likely a representation of Naram-Sin.

 CHAPTER 1   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Continuing this line of approach, we would then be compelled to identify Sargon’s son Rimush with Teti’s son Pepi/Apopi I; Rimush’s son Manishtusu with Pepi I’s son Merenre I; Manishtusu’s son Naram-Sin with Merenre I’s son Pepi/Apopi II, and Naram-Sin’s son Shar-kali-sharri with Merenre II.
Thus it may well be that Manishtusu, not Rimush, is the Mesopotamiana alter-ego of Pepi I. Other identifications are just as tentative.
The (Hyksos) pharaoh named Khyan, whose lion was found at Baghdad, may well have been yet another alter-ego of Apopi/Pepi I, though there are indications that he is more probably identified with Apopi/Pepi II.

He ruled from 2334-2279, following which the throne went to two of his sons.
Rimush ruled from 2278-2270 and Manishtusu from 2269-2255.
Very well, let's assume that this Lugal-an does his dirty deeds during Sargon's reign, or those of his sons, even though we have no historical evidence to that effect.
