Urukagina ruled around 2350 B.C., and in this inscription he claims to have restored order and justice after a period of corruption under his predecessor. He had usurped the throne of Lagash, and framing the previous king as a crooked ruler helped justify his claim to the throne. https://t.co/WsSsu7pIuf

Urukagina says he restored social order against the “abuses of the old days,” helped the oppressed, reduced taxes, punished thieves, and canceled debts. Independence for Lagash was short-lived, however, because a rival king named Lugalzagesi overthrew Urukagina. https://t.co/nO9FWtb5kr
