Uhub (Sumerian: ๐๐ธ, u2-hub2),[5] (c. 2600 BCE), was Ensi (Governor) of the Sumerian city-state of Kish before Mesilim[6][7]
His name is missing from the Sumerian king list, just as the name of Mesilim, who ruled about fifty years later.[8][9] Uhub is mentioned on a vase dedicated to god Zababa.[10][9] The first inscription has been reconstructed as ๐ญ๐๐ ๐ / ๐๐ธ / ๐๐ผ๐ / ๐ง๐ , Zamama, Uhub ensi kish-ki "Zababa, Uhub, Governor of Kish".[11]
Uhub is otherwise known from a few more inscriptions.[12]
