[2] Cf. "Cuneiform Inscriptions from Western Asia," Vol. II. (1866), pl. 39, No. 5, l. 41, where Sargon's name occurs in conjunction with his title "King of Agade," or pl. 48, l. 40, where he is credited with such descriptions as "king of justice" (_shar kitti_), "proclaimer of justice" (_dabib kitti_), "proclaimer of favours" (_dabib damkâti_); the passage in pl. 50, l. 64, which mentions the old Babylonian city of Dûr-Sharrukîn, "Sargon's Fortress," was also referred to him. [3] Rawlinson announced his discovery of the Legend of Sargon in the _Athenæum_, No. 2080, Sept. 7, 1867, p. 305, where he made the acute suggestion that Sargon of Assyria, the father of Sennacherib, may have been called "the later Sargon" (_Sharru-ukîn arkû_) "to distinguish him from the hero of romance whose adventures were better known among the Assyrian people."

(1863), p. 273, and "Histoire des Empires de Chaldée et d'Assyrie" (1865), pp. 22 ff.). [7] See "Comptes rendus de l'Académie des Inscriptions et Belles-lettres," Ser. IV., Tome V. (Oct., 1877), pp. 330 ff. An impression of the seal had been sent from Baghdad to Constantinople, whence M. Ménant had received it from M. Barré de Lancy in 1865. It was later acquired by M. de Clercq (cf. "Collection de Clercq," Tome I., 1888, No. 46, pl. V., p. 49 f.). [8] "Recherches sur la glyptique orientale," I. (1883), p. 73 f. [9] See Pinches, "Proc.

The identification was opposed by Ménant, who pointed out that the two final syllables of the name could not be treated as a title (_op. cit._, Feb. 5, 1884, pp. 88 ff., and "Collection de Clercq," p. 49 f.). Ménant adhered to his former opinion that Shargani-shar-lukh (as he now read the name) was an earlier king of Agade. [11] See Oppert, "Expedition scientifique," II. (1859), p. 62, and "Cun. Inscr.
