Isin

Isin (Sumerian: 𒉌𒋛𒅔𒆠, I3-si-inki, modern Ishan al-Bahriyat) is an archaeological site in Al-Qādisiyyah Governorate, Iraq which was the location of the Ancient Near East city of Isin, occupied from the late 4th millennium BC Uruk period up until at least the late 1st millennium BC Neo-Babylonian period. It lies about 40 km (25 mi) southeast of the modern city of Al Diwaniyah. The tutelary deity of Isin, dating back to at least the Early Dynastic period, was the healing goddess Gula with a major temple (E-gal-ma) sited there as well as smaller installations for the related gods of Ninisina and Sud.
