The following is a list of the Kings of Babylon, a major city of ancient Mesopotamia, in modern Iraq.

Contents

First Dynasty of Babylon

This uses the traditional Middle Chronology, although there is now reason to believe it may be too early by as much as a century.

Early Kassite Monarchs

These rulers did not rule Babylon itself, but their numbering scheme was continued by later Kassite Kings of Babylon, and so they are listed here.

Sealand Dynasty (Dynasty II of Babylon)

This dynasty also did not actually rule Babylon, but rather the Sumerian regions south of it. Nevertheless, it is traditionally numbered the Second Dynasty of Babylon, and so is listed here.

Kassite Dynasty (Third Dynasty of Babylon)

Assyrian Governors 1235-1227 BCE

Dynasty IV of Babylon, from Isin

Dynasty V of Babylon

Dynasty VI of Babylon

Dynasty VII of Babylon

Dynasty VIII of Babylon

Dynasty IX of Babylon

Dynasty IX of Babylon

Dynasty X of Babylon (Assyrians and Chaldeans)

Assyrian Sack of Babylon, 689 BCE; Babylon is rebuilt by Esarhaddon of Assyria in the 670s BCE

Dynasty XI of Babylon (Neo-Babylonian or Chaldean)

In 539 BCE, Babylon was captured by Cyrus the Great of Persia, and lost its independence.
