Marduk-apla-usur

King of Babylon · Historical Figures

Marduk-apla-uṣur, inscribed dAMAR.UTU-A-ŠE[Š], or mdŠID-A-[x], meaning 'O Marduk, protect the heir' was an 8th century BC Chaldean tribal leader who ruled as King of Babylon after the reign of Marduk-bēl-zēri. He is known only from three inscriptions and ruled during a period of chaos.

Marduk-apla-usur is read about 5 times a day, in 15 languages.

A typical day, 30 days to 19 August 2026

The middle day of the days counted, so one week of news cannot move it. The line under it is the last 60 days, one point a day.
