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, king-lists and a tablet although a single king list gives his father as
Aššur-rā’im-nišēšu, probably in error. He succeeded his nephew,
Aššur-nādin-aḫḫe II, being succeeded himself by the rather more prominent king
Aššur-uballiṭ 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.
