Abstract

Within the periods of history, perhaps it is the emergence of the "western" civilization in Mesopotamia that has been least studied due to various factors, the difficulty of research, the investigative hegemony over Roman and Greek history, but within this field In research, the period called Isin-Larsa is very little studied, in which no city maintained a clear hegemony, and in which multiple forms of organization emerged, as many as cities. This period has been marginalized in an unconscious way by an important part of historiography, as are the periods that are included between two important processes, such as what happened in the history of Greece. The article explores the end of the Urr III dynasty, where we find a problem of historical identification of the same period that comes to be treated by some sources such as the Amorite period and, by others, the Isin-Larsa period.
