Ur-Nanshe

[7] He is known to have originally built the Ibgal of Inanna, because of Eanatum's honorary inscriptions left after temple renovation.

An oval wall surrounds the main mud brick temple and it is located on the southwest edge of the city.

In the top register he is dressed in a kaunakes (tufted wool skirt), carrying a basket of bricks on his head while surrounded by other Lagash elite, his wife, and seven of his sons[12] (though it is possible female figure is instead the king's daughter[16]).

[7] A part of the inscriptions, in front of the seated king, reads: โ€œBoats from the (distant) land of Dilmun carried the wood (for him)โ€.

The figures displayed are the king and his court standing rigid and wide eyed, paying homage to the god Nanshe.
