Ammi-Ditana

Ammi-Ditana was a king of Babylon who reigned from 1683–1640s BC.

His reign was a largely peaceful one; he was primarily engaged in enriching and enlarging the temples, and a few other building projects, although in his 37th regnal year he recorded having destroyed the city wall of Der, built earlier by Damiq-ilishu of Isin.

[1] Ammi ditana is known for his literature.One is called Ammi-ditāna's hymn to Ištar.

[2][3] Another work is called the Di 1353, a letter to chief lamentation priest of Annunītum on the provision of fodder barley for livestock in Nakkamtum.
