Melem-ana

Ancient Sumerian ruler

Melem-Ana of Unug (? - c. 2546 BC) was the 11th lugal of the First Dynasty of Uruk. He ruled in Mesopotamia in modern-day Iraq. Little is known about Melem-ana.

The Sumerian King List places him after Mesh-he and he would have ruled for 6 years.[1] It is believed he died after the year 2552 BC. Whether Lugal-kitun succeeded him, however, is not completely established.
