Only a handful of inscriptions are known for Ashurbanipal's son and immediate successor Aššur-etel-ilāni (631–627) and more texts of his are attested from Babylonia than from Assyria. This king's texts are presently found on numerous bricks, a clay cylinder, and a few single-column clay tablets. All but one inscription are written in the Standard Babylonian dialect of Akkadian; a brick inscription discovered at Nippur is composed in the Sumerian language. This group of texts provides some details about his building activities and support of temples, and one text records that he had the remains of an earlier Chaldean ruler returned from Assyria to its proper burial place in Bīt-Dakkūri. Aššur-etel-ilāni is known to have sponsored building on or donated inscribed objects to the temples Eešerke (Sippar-Aruru), E-ibbi-Anum (Dilbat), Ekur (Nippur), Esagil (Babylon), and Ezida (Kalḫu). For further information about Aššur-etel-ilāni's reign, see pp. 31–33 of the present volume (with references to earlier scholarly literature).
