Persoonlijke gegevens Eriba-Adad I van Assyrië 

• (Geschiedenis) .Bron 1

  Eriba-Adad was koning van Assyrië, 1393 v. Chr. - 1365 v. Chr. Met hem begon de Midden-Assyrische periode.
  Waarschijnlijk was hij niet meer dan een vazal van Mitanni. Dit koninkrijk raakte echter verstrikt in een dynastieke strijd tussen Tushratta en zijn broer Artatama en nadien diens zoon Shuttarna II die zich koning der Hurri noemden en steun zochten bij hun Assyrische vazallen. Er ontstond zo een pro-Hurri/Assur partij aan het Mitanni hof. Zijn zoon en opvolger Assur-uballit I zou daar handig gebruik van maken.

  Eriba-Adad, inscribed mSU-dIM or mSU-d10 ("[the god] Adad has replaced"), was king of Assyria from 1392 BC to 1366 BC. His father had been the earlier king Aššur-bel-nišešu, an affiliation attested in brick inscriptions,[i 1] king-lists[i 2][i 3] and a tablet[i 4][1] although a single king list[i 5] gives his father as Aššur-ra’im-nišešu, probably in error.[2] He succeeded his nephew, Aššur-nadin-a??e II, being succeeded himself by the rather more prominent king Aššur-uballi? I, who was his son. He was the 72nd on the Assyrian King List and ruled for 27 years, his reign being generally considered the start of the middle Assyrian period.
  Biography
  
  The circumstances surrounding his accession are unknown, although most nephew-uncle successions recorded in Assyrian history were bloody affairs. He styled himself “regent of Enlil”, the first Assyrian monarch to do so since Šamši-Adad I. His uninscribed royal seal shows a heraldic group which includes two winged griffin-demons flanking a small tree and supporting a winged sun-disc above their wings and a double-headed griffin-demon holding two griffin-demons by their ankles, a radical departure from the earlier style, which was to set a precedent for the later Assyrian glyptic.[3] It was found impressed into middle Assyrian contract tablets.[i 6][i 7][4]
  
  He was probably a vassal of Mitanni. However, this kingdom got tangled up in a dynastic battle between Tushratta and his brother Artatama II and after this his son Shuttarna II, who called himself king of the Hurri, while seeking support from their Assyrian vassals. A pro-Hurri/Assur faction appeared at the royal Mitanni court, which his son and successor Aššur-uballi? would take advantage of.
  
  Several of the Limmu officials, the noblemen from which the Assyrian Eponym dating system was derived, are known for this period as they date commercial records, but relatively few can be assigned directly to his reign rather than that of his successor. One might be Aššur-muttakil, the governor of Qabra, a fortress on the lesser Zab, who inherited his position from his father Aššur-dayyan and bequeathed it to his son.[5] His was the earliest of the stelae identified in the Stelenriehe, "row of stelae," the two rows of stone monuments uncovered in Aššur.[6] The later Assyrian king, Ninurta-apal-Ekur, son of Ili-padâ, was to claim descent from him in his inscriptions
