Add article description

Tizqar of Kish was the nineteenth Sumerian king in the First Dynasty of Kish and succeeded his father Zamuq as ruler, according to some versions of the Sumerian King List.[1] His name does not appear in Early Dynastic inscriptions, meaning that he is unlikely to have been a real historical person.[2]
