This city employed the slave-trading Suteans, who inhabited nearby Subum, as couriers. MUL.APIN (“mool-ah-peen”), a series of two texts from this city, contains several stellar calendars and is one of the earliest compendia of astronomical knowledge. It’s not Greek, but the Metonic calendar likely originated in this city during the rule of Samsu-iluna. Claiming that no Egyptian was allowed to die outside of Egypt, Amunhotep III refused to send a princess to marry this city’s ruler Burna-Buriash II, from its Kassite Dynasty. A stele from this city that depicts a ruler thinking as he receives guidance from Shamash is the origin of the phrase “an eye for an eye.” For 10 points, name this Mesopotamian city ruled by Hammurabi. ■END■
