Enanatum I.
Enanatum I (around 2460 BC) was an early dynastic king of Lagaš and brother of Eanatum . Several votive offerings have been found by him during excavations, which prove his building activity on temples. Under his rule there was a revolt by Urlumma , the king of Umma , who rebelled against the peace conditions laid down in the vulture stele of Eanatum and successfully attacked Lagaš.
