Who was the ruler of an ancient city located Northwest of the junction of the Euphrates and Tigris and had several statues found in southern Mesopotamia?
Lagash Lagash (cuneiform: 𒉢𒁓𒆷𒆠 ; Sumerian: "Lagaš") is an ancient city located northwest of the junction of the Euphrates and Tigris rivers and east of Uruk, about 22 km east of the modern town of Ash Shatrah, Iraq. Lagash (modern Al-Hiba) was one of the oldest cities of the Ancient Near East. The ancient site of Nina (modern Surghul) is around 10 km away and marks the southern limit of the state. Nearby Girsu (modern Telloh), about 25 km northwest of Lagash, was the religious center of the Lagash state. Lagash's main temple was the E-Ninnu, dedicated to the god Ningirsu.
Taxiles Taxiles (in Greek Tαξίλης or Ταξίλας; lived 4th century BC) was the Greek chroniclers' name for a prince or king who reigned over the tract between the Indus and the Jhelum (Hydaspes) Rivers in the Punjab at the time of Alexander the Great's expedition. His local name was Ambhi (or Ambhika, Greek: Omphis), and the Greeks appear to have called him Taxiles or Taxilas, from the name of his capital city of Taxila, near the modern city of Attock, Pakistan.
