Nergal-sharezer,
Nerigl-issar,
Nergal-sarusur.

King of Babylon from 560 to 556 BC. son-in-law of Nebuchadnezzar II, whose son and heir, Amel-Marduk, Nergal-sharezer murdered and succeeded.

//////

Nebuchadnezzar's son, Amel-Marduk (Evil-Merodach) reigned from 562 until his assassination in 560 BCE. He was followed by his brother-in-law and assassin, Nergal-Sharezer, who ruled for four years.

//////

Nergal, in Mesopotamian religion, secondary god of the Sumero-Akkadian pantheon.He was identified with Irra, the god of scorched earth and war, and with Meslamtaea, He Who Comes Forth from Meslam. Cuthah (modern Tall Ibrāhīm) was the chief centre of his cult. In later thought he was a "destroying flame" and had the epithet sharrapu ("burner").

//////

Nergal's fiery aspect appears in names or epithets such as Lugalgira, Lugal-banda (Nergal as the fighting-cock), Sharrapu ("the burner", a reference to his manner of dealing with outdated teachings), Erra, Gibil (though this name more properly belongs to Nusku), and Sibitti or Seven.
