ナラム・シン
Kaneš or Neša, inhabited continuously from the Chalcolithic to Roman times, flourished as an important Hattian, Hittite and Hurrian city, containing a large "kārum" (merchant colony) of the Old Assyrian Empire from c. the 21st to 18th centuries BC. This "kārum" appears to have served as "the administrative and distribution centre of the entire Assyrian colony network in Anatolia". A late (c. 1400 BCE) witness to an old tradition includes a king of Kaneš called Zipani among seventeen local city-kings who rose up against Naram-Sin of Akkad (ruled c. 2254-2218 BC).
