  Nabû-apla-iddina, inscribed mdNábû-ápla-iddinana[i 2] or mdNábû-apla-íddina,[i 3] = ca. 888 – 855 BC, was the 6th king of the dynasty of E of Babylon and he reigned for at least 32 years.[i 4] During much of Nabû-apla-iddina's reign Babylon faced a significant rival in Assyria under the rule of Aššur-na?ir-apli II. Nabû-apla-iddina was able to avoid both outright war and significant loss of territory although there was some low level conflict including a case where he sent a party of troops led by his brother to aid rebels in Suhu. Later in his reign Nabu-apla-iddina agreed to a treaty with Aššur-na?ir-apli II’s successor Šulmanu-ašaredu III. Internally Nabu-apla-iddina worked on the reconstruction of temples and something of a literary revival took place during his reign with many older works being recopied.[1]

  Biography
  
  The 9th century BC was marked by a recovery of sorts after terrible instability of the preceding hundred and fifty years when Aramaean tribes had wantonly raided into Mesopotamia. He was the 2nd of four successive generations of a single family to rule. His father, Nabû-šuma-ukin I, had preceded him and he was to be succeeded by his son, Marduk-zakir-šumi I. The Synchronistic Kinglist[i 5] gives his Assyrian contemporary as Aššur-na?ir-apli II although his reign extended on into that of Šulmanu-ašaredu III.
  
  He provided troops to the state of Su?u in the middle Euphrates valley as part of its 878 BC revolt against Aššur-na?ir-apli II. Kudurru the governor of the fortress of Suru had defiantly refused to pay the Assyrians tribute, provoking their wrath. Nabû-apla-iddina's own brother Zabdanu and the diviner Bel-apli-iddina led the army of 3000 and following their defeat were taken prisoner. Although Aššur-na?ir-apli claimed to have conquered the border fortresses Hirimmu and Harutu in his own inscriptions, this may be a restatement of his father, Tukulti-Ninurta II’s campaigns.
  
  His reign marks the last time a governor of Isin was to appear as a prominent official in a legal document, and the roles of Kassites were to be central to the monarchy, occupying high positions at court. The province of Chaldea in southern Babylonia was first mentioned and the šakin temi begins to serve as regional governor. There was a shift in fashion, where, for example, the feathered crown is replaced by a peaked dome as a headdress of the king.[2]
  
  His inscriptions adorn perhaps five kudurrus,[i 6] a possession inscription of his eldest son, and he is referenced in three Assyrian kinglists and two chronicles.[i 7] Towards the end of his reign he concluded a treaty with Šulmanu-ašaredu III which was to prove instrumental in stabilizing his successor Marduk-zakir-šumi I’s rule, following the revolt of his brother, Marduk-bel-ušati.[i 2] His reign is mentioned in a later copy of an offering list of aromatics[i 8] used in the cult of Marduk in the Esagila at Babylon,[3] and in a contemporary temple ordinance tablet[i 9] distributing meats in the Eanna temple in Uruk.[4]

  The ravages of the Suteans during the 11th century reign of Adad-apla-iddina (1067-1046 BC) had resulted in the cities of Uruk and Nippur being sacked and temples of Sippar being so thoroughly destroyed that the cultic iconography of Šamaš was irretrievably lost. The intervening reign of Simbar-Šipak (ca.1025-1008 BC) had resulted in a votive disc being suspended as a substitute and a priest, Ekur-šum-ušabši, being appointed. Under the reign of Kaššu-nadin-a?i (ca 1006-1004 BC)) a prebend had been provided to the priest. Not until Nabû-apla-iddina’s reign, however, was a replacement icon crafted for installation in the Ebabbar temple in Sippar, celebrated in the Sun God Tablet (pictured), also known as the tablet of Shamash. He is portrayed being led by Nabû-nadin-shum, the priest and descendant of Ekur-šum-ušabši, and the goddess Aa, facing the seated figure of Šamaš. The inscription celebrates Nabû-apla-iddina’s victory over the Sutû, the “evil foe,” being the first Babylonian king in over two centuries (since Nabû-kudurri-u?ur I, ca. 1126–1103 BC) to claim a military title, “heroic warrior .. who bears an awe-inspiring bow …,” for their overthrow.
  
  The tablet was rediscovered some 250 years later by Nabû-apal-usur (625 BC - 605 BC), when it was already broken, and he had it placed in a clay box with his own inscription for safe keeping where it was discovered in the 19th century. [5]
  Literary revival
  
  There is some evidence for a literary revival, with fresh editions of the Utukku Lemnutu series and the Sakikku (SA.GIG) texts prepared, and for the sharing of a scribe between the Babylonian and Assyrian courts. Kabti-ilani-Marduk’s work, the Epic of the plague god Erra, is sometimes dated to his reign and is certainly of this period
