Ḫarba-Šipak
Harba-Šipak is after King List A of the seventh ruler of the Kassite dynasty of Babylon . There are no written records of this king's government. It is usually found around 1600 BC. BC. Cassin assumes that he, like his successor Tiptakzi , was a brother (ŠEŠ) of Urzigurumaš and regent of his son Agum-kakrime .
reading
The exact reading of his name is unclear, Ḫarba-šeš was also possible. Boese wants to read the name after finds from Tell Muhammad (layers II and III), however, as Ḫurbazum , that of his successor as Šiptaʾulzi.
