On the other hand it was pointed out that the evidence furnished by the chronicle suggests the inference that the kings of the Country of the Sea never ruled at Babylon at all, and that consequently the Third Dynasty followed immediately after the First; and, according to this alternative scheme, a date within the twenty-first century B.C. was to be assigned for the accession of Su-abu, the founder of the First Dynasty.
