Eponyms which are
merely probable, but which have been preferred for a Shalmaneser 1
setting, are as follows:
Eponym |
Comment |
Serrija |

Putanu |
Based on Melisah floruit |
Ber-suma-iddina |
Based on Melisah and
Assir-aha-iddina floruit |
Ili-qarrad |

Ina-pi-assur-lislim |

Ber-sumu-lesir |
Placed in late Shalmaneser
rather than early TN1, because of Rollig sequence |
Qibi-assur<
Samash-aha-iddina |
Placed in Shalmaneser
(leaving Qibi-assur<Ibassi-ili in year 2 TN1 because of
floruits) because of eponyms of brothers Ubru and Ištar-eris
in Shalmaneser. |
Ištar-eris<
Samaš-aha-iddina |
Placed in Shalmaneser because
of Sin-apla-eris floruit. |
All of these eponyms are relatively closely
dated to this period through major well-dated nobles.
