Iter-pisha
Sign in to savethumb|Tablet with the List of Kings of Ur and Isin (MS 1686) Iter-pisha, inscribed in cuneiform as i-te-er-pi/pi4-ša and meaning "Her command is surpassing", (died 1829 BC) was the 12th king of Isin during the Old Babylonian period. The Sumerian King List tells us that "the divine Iter-pisha ruled for 4 years." The Ur-Isin King List which was written in the 4th year of the reign of Damiq-ilishu gives a reign of just 3 years. His relationships with his predecessor and successor are uncertain and his reign falls during a period of general decline in the fortunes of the dynasty.
