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

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

Gandash fl. c. 1730 BC

Agum I

Kashtiliash I

Ushshi

Abirattash

Kashtiliash II

Urzigurumash

Harbashihu

SEALAND DYNASTY (DYNASTY II OF BABYLON)

''This dynasty also did not actually rule Babylon, but rather the Sumer ian 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)

''The chronology followed here is the higher chronology found in Von Beckerath's ''Chronologie des pharaonischen Ägypten''. Another commonly used chronology generally gives dates of approximately 10 to 20 years earlier for each monarch, but this does not synchronize so well with the most commonly used chronology for the Egyptian New Kingdom.''
