 | | The first Southern king to claim the title of "King of Kish", Mesannepada of Ur (2563-2524), claims to be the husband of Inanna under one of Her sobriquets. |
 | | Eannatum of Lagash, claimed it by virtue of the love of Inanna, or "Inanna, because She loved him so, gave him the kingship of Kish, in addition to the rulership of Lagash". |
