Description: Map of the kingdom of the First Dynasty of Babylon from the beginning of the reign of Hammurabi (1792-1750 BC according to middle chronology) to the fall of Babylon in 1595 BC. The maximal extension of the kingdom under the reigns of Hammrabi and his son Samsu-iluna includes cities that have been taken by those kings, but probably dominated at best a few years, like Tuttul, Nineveh and Shekhna. The domination of Terqa by the successors of Samsu-iluna is probable because of some of them appear in the name years of tablets excavated there (Ammi-saduqa, Samsu-ditana).
