Anubanini, also Anobanini (: An-nu-ba-ni-ni; ), was a Chief (𒈗 Šàr, pronounced Shar) of the pre-Iranian tribal kingdom of Lullubi in the Zagros Mountains circa 2300 BC, or relatively later during the Isin-Larsa period of Mesopotamia, circa 2000-1900 BC. He is known especially from the Anubanini rock relief, located in Kermanshah Province, Iran.
According to an inscription, Annubanini seems to have been contemporary with Simurrum king Iddin-Sin. Another well-known Lullubi chief is Satuni, who was vanquished by the Mesopotamian king Naram-Sin around 2250 BC.
