Puzur-Ashur II (also transcribed as Puzur-Aššur II) wasking (Išši’ak Aššur, "Steward ofAssur") during theOld Assyrian periodc. 1880 to 1873 BC.[1] Puzur-Ashur II had been both the son and successor ofSargon I. Due to Sargon I's long reign, Puzur-Ashur II came to the throne at such a late age that one of his sons, named Ili-bani was a witness in a contract (and so already a grown man) eleven years before Puzur-Ashur II became ruler.[citation needed] Puzur-Ashur II was succeeded by his sonNaram-Sin. The following is a list of the nine annually-elected "limmu" ("eponym") officials from the year of accession of Puzur-Ashur II, the "waklum" ("overseer"), in the limmu of Ashur-iddin (son of Shuli) to Puzur-Ashur II's death in the limmu of Inaya (son of Amuraya.)[2] BC dates are based on a date of 1833 BC for the recorded solar eclipse in the limmu of Puzur-Ištar:[3]
