• "[King Il of Umma] diverted water from the boundary channel of Ningirsu and the boundary channel of Nanshe . When because of those channels, Enmetena, the governor of Lagash, sent envoys to Il, Il, the governor of Umma, who steals fields speaks evil, declared: 'The boundary channel of Ningirsu the boundary channel of Nanshe is mine! I will shift the boundary levee from Antasura to Edimgalabzu!' But Enlil Ninhursang did not give it to him." (en)
