Etana
Etana (Cuneiform:𒂊𒋫𒈾, E.TA.NA) was the probably fictional thirteenth king of the first dynasty of Kish. He is listed in the Sumerian King List as the successor of Arwium, the son of Mashda, as king of Kish. The list also calls Etana "the shepherd, who ascended to heaven and consolidated all the foreign countries", and states that he ruled 1,560 years (some copies read 635) before being succeeded by his son Balih, said to have ruled 400 years. The kings on the early part of the SKL are usually not considered historical, except when they are mentioned in contemporary Early Dynastic documents. Etana is not one of them.
