# Rim-Sin II

> Rim-Sîn II ruled the ancient Near East city-state
of Larsa from c. 1742 BC to 1739 BC (MC) and was the last of the Dynasty of Larsa. It is now thought that his total reign lasted less than 2 years. His name was sometimes preceded by a Dingir though there is no record of him being deified. Rim-Sin II was a contemporary of Samsu-iluna of Babylon, and fellow rebels Iluni of Eshnunna, Rim-Šara of Umma, and Rîm-Anum of Uruk. Though he joined in revolting against Babylon Rim-Anum of Uruk
had been in conflict with Larsa based on his year name of "Year in which Rîm-Anum the king defeated the land of Emutbal, the troops of Eshnunna, Isin and Kazallu who marched together against him to make booty ... which was not counted since ancient times ... and defeated them". Rim-Sin II is mentioned
as a son of one Warad-Sin though it is unclear if that is the Warad-Sin who was the previous
ruler of Larsa. It is not even
clear that he came from Larsa. In one of the letters of Rim-Sin II suggests his family came from Kesh:"To Amurrum-illatī, speak; thus says Rim-Sin. In order to set light (upon) Emutbalum and to regather its scattered people, the great gods established firmly the foundation of my throne in Keš, the city of the one who bore me. Just as the entire land has heard and rejoiced and has come and met with me, you must also come and meet with me. ..."
