Puzur-Sin

Puzur-Sin was a native Assyrian ruler of Assur in the eighteenth century BCE. According to the Babylonian Empire profile, he expelled Babylonian-installed vassals from Assur around 1740 BCE. His action ended Babylonian influence in the north and contributed to the shrinking of the Old Babylonian state.
