About this person

This section had been written in reverse order - beginning with Aminu and ending with Apiashal “altogether ten kings who are ancestors” - and has often been interpreted as the list of ancestors of the Amorite Šamši-Adad I who had conquered the city-state of Aššur. The AKL also states that Samani was the son and successor of Hale. Additionally, the AKL states that Samani had been both the predecessor and father of Hayani.
