Aya-ramu

Aya-ramu (Akkadian: a-a-ram-mu, Aya-rāmu^[1] or Ayya-rammu^[2] or Ilāya-rām)^[3] was king of Edom around the year 701 BCE, during the reign of the Assyrian king Sennacherib.^[2] A tentative chronology proposed by Edward Lipiński places his rule between c. 710-685 BC.^[3] His rule followed that of Qaus-malaka and he was succeeded by Qaus-gabri.^[3]

He is mentioned on Sennacherib's Prism in a list of kings of the Levant and Cyprus who paid tribute to Assyria after Sennacherib's campaign in the Levant.^[1]
