Sammuramat

Sammuramat (Akadca: Sammu-rāmat veya Sammu-ramāt),Shammuramat veya Shamiram olarak da bilinen, Neo-Asur İmparatorluğu'nun güçlü bir kraliçesiydi. Kariyerine kral V. Şamşi-Adad'ın (h. 824-811) kraliçesi olarak başladı, oğlu III. Adad-nirari'nin (h. 811-783 M.Ö.) saltanatı sırasında alışılmadık derecede önemli bir konuma ulaştı. Kocasının ölümünden sonra kraliçe statüsünü koruyan bilinen tek Asur kraliçesidir ve bir askeri sefere katılan ve hatta belki de öncülük eden bilinen tek antik Asur kadınıdır.

The feminine version of the word for king (šarrum) was šarratum, but this was reserved for goddesses and foreign queens who ruled in their own right. Because the consorts of the kings did not rule themselves, they were not regarded as their equals and as such not called šarratum. Instead, the term reserved for the primary consort was MUNUS É.GAL (woman of the palace). In Assyrian, this term was rendered issi ekalli, later abbreviated to sēgallu.

3. ^ Assyrian kings at times had multiple wives at the same time, but not all were recognized as queens (or "women of the palace"). Though it has been disputed in the past, it appears that only one woman bore the title at any given time, as the term typically appears without qualifiers (indicating a lack of ambiguity).
