Sargon Mkuu

Sargon Mkuu (kwa Kiakadi: Šarru-ukīn au Šarru-kēn, anayejulikana pia kama Sargon wa Akkad)also "Sargon the Elder", and in older literature Shargani-shar-ali and Shargina-Sharrukin. Gaston Maspero (ed. A. H. Sayce, trans. M. L. McClure), History of Egypt, Chaldea, Syria, Babylonia and Assyria (1906?), p. 90. alikuwa mtawala wa kwanza wa Dola la Akad, maarufu kwa kuteka miji-dola ya Wasumeri katika karne ya 24 - 23 KK.The date of the reign of Sargon is highly uncertain, depending entirely on the (conflicting) regnal years given in the various copies of the Sumerian King List, specifically the uncertain duration of the Gutian dynasty. The added regnal years of the Sargonic and the Gutian dynasties have to be subtracted from the accession of Ur-Nammu of the Third Dynasty of Ur, which is variously dated to either 2047 BC (Short Chronology) or 2112 BC (Middle Chronology). An accession date of Sargon of 2334 BC assumes: (1) a Sargonic dynasty of 180 years (fall of Akkad 2154 BC), (2) a Gutian interregnum of 42 years and (3) the Middle Chronology accession year of Ur-Nammu (2112 BC).

Inadhaniwa kuwa dola lake lilienea katika Mesopotamia na hata nje yake kutoka mji wa Akkad (pia: Agade).
