Igigi (died c. 2192 BC), according to the Sumerian King List , was one of four rivals (the others being Ilulu, Imi, and Nanum) vying to be king of Akkad during a three-year period following the death of Shar-Kali-Sharri. [1] This chaotic period came to an end when Dudu consolidated his power over the realm.
