  • Czech Wikipedia auto-translation: "Enlil-nasir I (Akkadian «[God] Enlil - protector») was an Assyrian king in the period roughly 1497–1483 BC. He was the son of the previous ruler Puzur-Ashshur III. ¶ Around 1485 BC, the Assyrian army under his command clashed with the troops of the Mitanni Empire, led by King Shaushtatar, who was trying to expand Mitanni territory. The Assyrian troops suffered a series of defeats and Shaushtatar even managed to capture the capital of Assyria, Ashur. He looted it and took away rich booty, including the temple gate, chained with gold and silver. Enlil-nasir I ruled for 14 years, and after his death, his son, Nur-ili, took the Assyrian throne." – Cites: "Historie starověkého Východu" - "История Древнего Востока.
