    • Nin-kisalsi (Sumerian: π’Žπ’†¦π’‹›) was a Sumerian ruler of the Mesopotamian city of Adab in the mid-3rd millennium BCE, probably circa 2500 BCE.
    His name does not appear in the Sumerian King List, but he is known from one inscription bearing his name. The inscription, on a bowl fragment, reads:

    π’ˆ¨π’² π’ˆ—π’†§π’† / π’‚π’Š¬ 𒁓 π’ˆ¬π’„„ / π’Žπ’†¦π’‹›} 𒑐𒋼𒋛 π’Œ“π’‰£
    me-silim lugal kisz e2-sar bur mu-gi4 nin-KISAL-si ensix(GAR.PA.TE.SI) adab
    "Me-silim, king of Kish, to the Esar temple sent over (this) bowl (for the burgi ritual). Nin-KISALsi, (was) the governor of Adab."

    It appears from this inscription that King Mesilim of Kish was contemporary with Nin-kisalsi and probably his suzerain. Another such ruler is Lugalshaengur, Governor of Lagash, who also appears in inscriptions as a vassal of Mesilim.
