Lugalanda

Lugalanda, ensi of Lagash, ruled corruptly, imposing heavy taxes and seizing temple lands for his own use. His administration was marked by extortion and abuse of power, as recorded in later reform texts. This corruption led to widespread discontent and his eventual overthrow.

Lugalanda was overthrown by Urukagina, who accused him of corruption and injustice. The coup was part of a popular uprising against Lugalanda's oppressive rule. Lugalanda's fate after the overthrow is not recorded, but he lost power and his reforms were reversed.
