//According to François Thureau-Dangin, the king reigned at a time earlier than Ur-Nanshe's of Lagash.[1]// I traced the source, and the source referred to another source which seems to be quite outdated. The synchronism does not appear to be correct due to the fact that control of s. Mesopotamia is attributed to this king and at the time of Urnanshe the largest political units fighting among themselves were local city states. If the synchronism is correct a direct source to tablet or tablets giving the evidence needs to be cited, and it also need to be specified just how contemporary the archaeological source is.

You can have an outdated source if you ascribe the info to its scholar. Plus, being old does not equal outdated. So, has been synchronism been refuted by newer data? Is there a source yo support this that actually mention the synchronism and refuse it?.--Attar-Aram syria (talk) 19:38, 29 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
